Looks like the 6 is £599 and the 6 Pro is £849. And yeah 5 years of updates now.

Free pair of BOSE 700 headphones (RRP £350) if you pre-order between now and 27th.

[wakka]

That's a generous offer!

[speedlolita]

When do they even release? 27th perhaps?

Hmm, that's quite tempting and I am considering now replacing my Pixel 3XL.

But is the additional camera worth the extra £250?

Seems it's an academic choice because, obviously, the scalpers are out to put them all on eBay :/

They're on retail shelves from 28th apparently, so 27th shipping would sound about right, I think.

You can still pre-order on Google Store. I just put one in my basket to test and it's letting me check out. Not pulling the trigger yet though.

[MartyG]

No, you can't. It's very very broken.

[Nu-Eclipse]

No, you can't. It's very very broken.

I literally just did what I just said I did.

Just did it again.

[MartyG]

You got lucky - can add it to the basket, but try checking out.



I've been trying since 07:08

Dayum. Unlucky.

I'm not even going all-in on day one, lol!

[Nu-Eclipse]

Isn't there supposed to be a 256GB version of the standard Pixel 6 though?

[MartyG]

Sod it, will just stick with the Pixel 3.

I just went through the whole process to get one for the wife. Went for the 24m finance option which I normally ignore and it all crashes on the final step... but the financing went through, wtf.

You won't have completed the finance until Google confirms the purchase and validates the contract.

Well that's a relief, though I figured I'd have a run around trying to close the klarna account...

Looks like they're getting hammered.
