Camera and Display

Google is good with its image processing techniques. The Pixel 6 Pro comes with a 50MP sensor. Paired with the 48MP telephoto lens and 12MP ultrawide sensor, you could expect some great shots from the 6 Pro. Pixel 6 users, on the other hand, will be missing that telephoto lens from the 6 Pro. The updated camera app will feature Real Tone, Magic Eraser, Action Pan and Long Exposure that could shed a lot of cropping and corrections.

Live Translate lets you chat with people speaking other languages, including English, French, German, Italian and Japanese. The feature will work with apps like Snapchat, WhatsApp and Messenger.
