With a list price of US$699 and over one year old, the Google Pixel 6 is an Android handset that remains very popular. Now, this smartphone is available with a generous 40% discount on Amazon. However, this tempting deal only applies to the 256 GB Stormy Black model carrying the number GA03900-US.

Released in late 2021 (also early 2022 in some markets), the Google Pixel 6 alongside its Pixel 6 Pro sibling arrived with Android 12 and with a unique design that integrates the brand's first in-house chipset, an entirely redesigned main camera setup, as well as a long software support cycle. The Android and feature updates are guaranteed for at least three years, while security updates will be provided for at least half a decade.

Our in-depth review of the 128 GB model concludes that "The Pixel 6 is a good choice for those who want to enjoy their smartphone for a long time without having to compromise on a good camera." and highlights features such as the bright 90 Hz OLED, fast Google Tensor chipset, IP68 rating, and long update cycle.

However, the thorough analysis of this handset also revealed a few issues, namely the lack of video output via USB, improper voice quality in speaker mode, as well as Google's re-iterated decision not to provide a microSD slot. In addition to these, many users have been complaining online about the lack of a notification LED.

After 506 ratings, the Google Pixel 6 has a 4.3/5 stars rating on Amazon. The breakdown by feature starts with an abysmal 2.3 score for facial recognition, continues with a 3.4 for the fingerprint reader, and goes up to 3.5-4.0-4.2 for value, battery life, and touchscreen. The ongoing 40% discount pushes the Stormy Black version with 256 GB storage space from US$699 to US$419. Sadly, the 128 GB models are all unavailable for the time being.
