Might just be me, but my 6 Pro feels even smoother after the security update!
Haha I feel the same way. Definitely feels snappier to me. Hopefully it just stays this way. Not that it was previously slow
I'm using 35GB of 128GB ..it's not going to be an issue I think
The funny thing folks, it took longer for the buds to update than the actual December lmao..Okay up and running
This gradual rollout crap is kind of ridiculous in 2021.
No update here, I'm thinking about sideloading but I'm not sure what to go with. Here are the options:
12.0.0 (SQ1D.211205.016.A1, Dec 2021)
12.0.0 (SQ1D.211205.016.A4, Dec 2021, EMEA carriers)
12.0.0 (SQ1D.211205.017, Dec 2021, US carriers)
I'm guessing that for the unlocked variant regardless of what carrier you're on it should be: SQ1D.211205.016.A1 and for the US carrier variants of the phone it would be SQ1D.211205.017. But, it's not obvious to me so I don't plan to sideload until I can figure out which the unlocked is supposed to get.

I went with the third option. I have an unlocked phone from the Google store on Verizon..
Pixel Stand 2 just arrived.
It's nice. If a little underwhelming for the price of the thing...
I don't use a wireless charger as I don't generally like them, (the discs you plonk your phone on I mean), bit thought I'd give this one a go.
The phone sits nice (Pro) but there's an ever so slight overhang on each side. The regular 6 would probably fit bang on.
With the official Google case on, it extends out of the stand even further.
Please don't judge the yellow wallpaper in my bedroom... This was the previous owners lol and the walls need replastering (new year job) before we decorate haha.
The fans whirring away was... Odd. Not sure why they kick in?! I'm looking forward on these dark mornings to have the light wake me up slowly
.
Not much more to say on it really!

I don’t know, your icons match the wallpaper. I think deep down you like that look. 
No I like yellow... But I don't like wallpaper from the 90s 🤣!I don’t know, your icons match the wallpaper. I think deep down you like that look.
You can combo it with some wood wall panel lolNo I like yellow... But I don't like wallpaper from the 90s
Anyone with TMobile get the Dec update? People suspect that TMobile is blocking the update if you have a TMobile sim for some reason.
Pixel 6 I got from T-Mobile, no update yet. Pixel 6 Pro bought unlocked direct from Google, no update yet.
do they both have sim cards in them?
I wonder if having a sim in the phone makes a difference?
The T-Mobile Pixel 6 has no SIM in it, just on WiFi as my backup phone now. The Google unlocked Pixel 6 Pro, does have my SIM in it, as that's my primary phone.
How wood paneling hasn't made a come back yet is beyond me. Everything else comes back.
Man that stand sure is thicc. I’ll probably stick with the og stand.
