14 fun details I noticed in my first 14 days with a Pixel

I was set up in no time.

A photograph of a hand holding a Pixel 6a while it's plugged in. The screen shows various abstract circular icons and the screen says "Checking info...".

Yes, I have a thing for blues and greens, why do you ask?

A photograph of a hand holding a Pixel 6a, with the back of the phone facing the camera. The phone is in a blue-green semi-translucent case. There is a "G" Google icon on it.

When it's turned off and plugged in, the Pixel 6a shows you a nifty charging screen.

The leveling feature is one of my favorites.

Good dogs deserve custom wallpaper colors.

Estimated battery life based on testing using a median Pixel user battery usage profile across a mix of talk, data, standby, and use of other features. Average battery life during testing was approximately 29 hours. Battery testing conducted using Sub-6 GHz non-standalone 5G (ENDC) connectivity. For “Up to 72 hours”: Estimated battery life based on testing using a median Pixel user battery usage profile across a mix of talk, data, standby, and use of limited other features that are default in Extreme Battery Saver mode (which disables various features including 5G connectivity). Battery testing conducted on a major carrier network. For both claims: Battery testing conducted in California in early 2022 on pre-production hardware and software using default settings, except that, for the “up to 72 hour” claim only, Extreme Battery Saver mode was enabled. Battery life depends upon many factors and usage of certain features will decrease battery life. Actual battery life may be lower.
