What’s worse than rolling out a feature-packed monthly software update midway through said month? Obviously, seeing the belated update cause more harm than good for a significant number of Pixel 6 and 6 Pro owners.
What’s worse than needing several weeks to devise a fix for one of the most annoying bugs you could ever experience on a phone? Claiming you’ve “identified” said fix while potentially keeping your users waiting for its rollout for another month or so.
If you were experiencing any other bugs that the update managed to fix, you might find yourself stuck choosing between two (or more) issues, and that’s before we even take into consideration the inherent inconvenience of having to reset one’s phone to its factory settings just to be able to enjoy voice calling functionality in areas with perfect signal.
Of course, the alternative of continuing to randomly miss or drop calls for up to another month or so is unlikely to please a lot of people, so you may have to do the unthinkable after all.
None of this applies to folks who haven’t had mobile connectivity problems after installing the latest update on the Pixel 6 or 6 Pro, of course, and oh, in case you’re wondering, said update appears to have been “paused” at some point in the last few weeks with no prior warning whatsoever.
