According to Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro owners, the December and January updates, released yesterday, make the new Pixels feel like a new phone.
The Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro can now install both the December and January updatesays,"wow all the bugs I had before are seems to be gone now and my phone becomes very responsive and very fast!!! woohooo they should have done this from the release date!!" Yours truly updated his brand spanking new Pixel 6 Pro yesterday and the fingerprint scanner showed a little improvement speed-wise.
The reason we say that there was only a"little improvement" was that the fingerprint scanner on this writer's unit was running without issue right out of the box and is now even faster following the update. According to another Reddit subscriber,,"Got the 215 mb update today in Canada and my phone is running smooth as butter now. Seems much faster and less laggy. Internet and wifi seem to be working better as well. No problems with apps crashing or anything like that, either.
He adds,"I have also noticed animations when unlocking phone and I believe closing apps to go back to the homescreen. Software just feels much more polished and the phone is finally starting to show off just what it can do!"If you have been waiting for Google to finish exterminating the bugs before buying either Pixel 6 model, now might be the time.
Now that the December and January updates have been released, the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro are the closest they have been since they were released to giving buyers the experience that were hoping to get from these devices.
