Google says this new phone will be 'more personal' than previous smartphones, in part due to the closer integration between hardware and software.

Some of this is driven by Google Tensor, the new mobile processor, that was designed specifically around Google's work in artificial intelligence. 

The firm says it 'enables entirely new capabilities for your smartphone, and makes Pixel 6 and 6 Pro more helpful and more personal.'

One of the more striking features of the new device is the 'Camera Bar'.

This metallic strip sits across the back of the phone to give the camera a 'clean, symmetrical, balanced design that puts it front-and-centre.' 

The textured black metal Camera Bar is designed to complement the 'expressive, versatile colours' available for the phones, Google explained.

They took inspiration from the finishes seen in luxury jewellery and watches, with a polished unibody metal, that transitions into 3D glass material. 

It comes with Android 12, which has been designed to adapt to the user, with wallpaper selections changing the entire user interface, including icons.  

There's also a fresh look and new features on the 'At A Glance' home and lock screen, with information on when to leave the house and other reminders.
