Launch for pixel 5, but I think pixel 4 was black Friday and there was like £100 off or something big enough to bug new buyers

As I originate from leafy Lanarkshire, the quote below has caught my eye. My accent is the main reason I disable Google Assistant as I may as well be speaking Klingon as far as the phone is concerned.

I sometimes put an accent on when talking to my Google home thing just to get it to put a timer on.

My Welsh impression comes out Pakistani so I just set the timers old skool style.

I've been asked if I'm French, Irish, Scandinavian even, in the past due to my accent LOL

google understands me with no problems and is not judging ROFL

those leaks and that poster looks good...

will wait until the announcement to make a decision if i want 6, or will I get 13pro...

Thanks, a similar offer with the price set at £650 would be pretty popular I think?

If the regular Pixel comes in at £650 then contracts should be interesting. The Motorola Edge 20 Pro is £650 and has fairly reasonable contracts available but I wonder how much more the a Pixel would be based on branding.

Would it be a Samsung S21 FE that would be put up against the Pixel 6 based on specs and price?

I'll eat my hat if the lowest version comes in at £650.

£680 minimum if Google are feeling strangely generous, other wise £730 lowest model is my guess.

Lowest price could be £679 or £699. But the lowest iPhone 13 is £779 so they may price it at or just below that.

Hopefully true. It's the only way they will make a dent in the market.

Would be nice. I still will likely not buy due to size

Exact reason I went with the 5 this week.
I'd love to have a brand new camera sensor that's even better than the Pixel 2-5, but the sizing really out me off.

I hope the price is right. I would not be able to justify 1k+ if I'm honest.

6 pricing is actually very reasonable. I'm not too fussed with the lack of UWB, telephoto lense and 5G mmWave (which doesn't even exist in the UK), as long as it keeps the wireless charging it would be a near instant buy for me.

I couldn't wait for the Pixel 6 , got the iPhone 13 Pro and getting rid of my Pixel 5 now .... if the Pixel 6 (non Pro) turns out to be way better than the iPhone 13 Pro then ill prolly swap over again ....

Love the small form factor of the Pixel 5 and shame to get rid of it to be honest

The only thing that could be better is the stills, video won't be better than IPhone's.

Yeah the iPhone is pretty strong on the videos .... however I hardly take videos tone honest ...

I'm all about photos....especially how good they come out in low light...
If 6 is not any better than my s10+ then I might go iPhone....and battery....can't wait for announcement but will be tough to pick one

5 is already better than your s10+ so I doubt 6 will be worse than 5.
