The Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro are two of the best flagship phones currently available. Google’s latest flagship phones feature everything you’d want from a modern-day flagship, from powerful cameras and in-house Tensor chipsets to smart software experiences.
While critics have praised the Pixel 6 series, it appears that most users aren’t having a fantastic experience with Google’s newest smartphones so far. The new smartphones have recently been plagued by a slew of glitches and difficulties, with users complaining about the slower fingerprint scanner, ghost dialing, network troubles, and the ‘Google Pixel 6 screen freezing issue.”
Many Pixel 6 owners have recently reported an issue on the Pixel 6 device in which the smartphone entirely freezes for a few seconds. The freezing touch-input issue appears to affect Pixel 6 systems with the canPerformGesture permission activated in the Accessibility Service. When this permission is enabled, the entire system will freeze for 1-2 seconds each time the battery level lowers by 1%.
