I also use a Pixel 6 (for at least a year, probably longer).

For me, the battery, camera, fingerprint and bluetooth work great.

The only issue I also experience is network connectivity sometimes stopping for a few seconds for no apparent reason. (I also dislike that if I enable mobile data, the phone basically completely stops scanning for wifi, and only connects to wifi if I manually connect using the wifi settings.)

(eta: I use GrapheneOS)

Does graphemeOS give complications with banking apps?

Last time I used a custom ROM I was locked out of online banking, which is quite the deal breaker for me...

If it isn't I might just give that a try

My banking app works flawlessly, even without Google Play services installed.

Here's a list of banking apps' compatibility with GrapheneOS. (I don't know how accurate this list is as a whole, but it's accurate for my banking app).

Ohhh thats such a useful resource! I'll try it on my OP5t and if it works I might switch over and get rid of Google services finally

Edit: Oh graphene is pixel devices only? Dang... Might be tok risky for me then
