The official Google 6 and 6 pro cases are pretty thin/ lightweight while providing enough protection around the glass.

I just received my stormy black 6 pro case and man does it feel and look good!
I've seen people complaining that the official google cases let in debris that can scratch the device.
 
Anyone else having this glitch with their Pixel 6 where you see shimmering, almost like sparkles/dots on the screen when going back to the Home Screen? I haven't paid attention if it's happening in other places. It is intermittent and heat is not an issue. I am using a downloaded wallpaper.

It almost seems to be a software bug.

Are you sure you are just so happy and celebrating from using your phone? Haha JK!

On a serious note, do you have another phone that you can record while this is happening? That sounds very weird my friend..

Verizon update notes claim it improves the fingerprint sensor. Some people on Reddit are claiming it's a lot better now, but that could just be placebo affect.

Is this an actual software update that people are referring to? I know the camera had an update on Monday but that was just the camera app etc.

If it does improve the fingerprint sensor then great!

Yes an actual update just dropped. Odd that it happened mid month. So it must have contained something critical.

I don't know if the transition is faster. I didn't have any issues all this time like I've stated here and other places but the FPS seems quicker to me to respond and the transition into the phone..
