The Google Pixel 6 stands out very clearly from the rest of the competition with its atypical design.

These are arranged on a fairly massive block, but which will allow the smartphone to hold well on a flat surface as well as in hand.

The front camera of the Pixel 6 is, on the other hand, equipped with 8 MP.
