This Pixel 6 model is the popular buy amongst our readers

The Pixel 6 Pro is it.

What you need to know

  • Most of our readers are interested in buying the Google Pixel 6 Pro.
  • A third of our poll responses voted for the standard Pixel 6 as the phone they want.
  • Some readers are undecided, while a smaller percent are not interested.

The Google Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro are up for preorder, and they seem to be selling like hotcakes with Google already sold out of many models and putting buyers on waitlists. However, there are still plenty of places where you can purchase one of the new smartphones, and we asked whether or not our readers were interested in buying either model.

While both phones share much of the same internals, the Pixel 6 Pro does have a higher refresh rate display, additional telephoto lens, and more RAM. That's why it may come as no surprise that the Pixel 6 Pro was the most popular device in our latest poll, with more than 54% saying they'll buy it. The standard Pixel 6 came in with less than 30% of votes, with a smaller percentage still unsure and an even smaller group passing on the new Pixels completely.

Many of our Facebook responses expressed interest in both the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro, but many also expressed wanting to wait until reviews came out to make the final decision. But that wasn't the only reason our readers wanted to wait:

One Twitter response explains that even though the Pixel 6 Pro is still cheaper than many other top-end flagships, it's still too pricey.

One commenter, Starfleet Captain, is tempted but wants to hold off for now. "The Pixel 6 Pro is the first Pixel phone I have actually wanted and considered purchasing," they said. "But I think I'll pass... for now. I want to see what Samsung delivers in February before I pull the trigger on a new phone."

Now that Google is putting up a real fight against some of the best Android phones, it'll be curious to see how the phones measure up to 2022 flagship devices, including the upcoming Galaxy S22.

The hidden cost of food delivery

Noah Lichtenstein Contributor Share on Twitter Noah Lichtenstein is the founder and managing partner of Crossover , a diversified private technology fund backed by institutional investors, technology execs and professional athletes and entertainers. More posts by this contributor What Studying Students Teaches Us About Great Apps I’ll admit it: When it comes to food, I’m lazy. There are dozens of great dining options within a few blocks of my home, yet I still end up ordering food through delivery apps four or five times per week. With the growing coronavirus pandemic closing restaurants and consumers self-isolating, it is likely we will see a spike in food delivery much like the 20% jump China reported during the peak of its crisis. With the food delivery sector rocketing toward a projected $365 billion by the end of the decade, I’m clearly not the only one turning to delivery apps even before the pandemic hit. Thanks to technology (and VC funding) we can get a ri

Slack’s new integration deal with AWS could also be about tweaking Microsoft

Slack and Amazon announced a big integration late yesterday afternoon. As part of the deal, Slack will use Amazon Chime for its call feature, while reiterating its commitment to use AWS as its preferred cloud provider to run its infrastructure. At the same time, AWS has agreed to use Slack for internal communications. Make no mistake, this is a big deal as the SaaS communications tool increases its ties with AWS, but this agreement could also be about slighting Microsoft and its rival Teams product by making a deal with a cloud rival. In the past Slack CEO Stewart Butterfield has had choice words for Microsoft saying the Redmond technology giant sees his company as an “existential threat.” Whether that’s true or not — Teams is but one piece of a huge technology company — it’s impossible not to look at the deal in this context. Aligning more deeply with AWS sends a message to Microsoft, whose Azure infrastructure services compete with AWS. Butterfield didn’t say that of course
