Google Pixel 6 will have ultra-wideband (UWB) support
The UWB-related APIs that appeared in Android 12 are currently not open to third-party applications yet. It is likely that the technology has not kept up with the release progress of Android 12 due to technical problems.
However, related code changes have begun to appear in AOSP. In addition to the support of the Pixel 6 series, it is expected to appear in Android T.

Google parodied Jony Ive for its like of headphone jack, but can't include one on the Pixel 6
Team Pixel made a YouTube video about Pixel 5a (5G), promoting 3.5mm headphone jack advantage through aesthetic point of view.
LOL, at this point Google forgot the history of his Pixel. In the first Pixel promotion video, they included this phrase "3.5mm headphone jack satisfyingly not new" to make fun of Apple removing it. (9To5Google)

Google paying Apple $15 billion to maintain search dominance on Apple devices
Google has been default search engine on Apple devices for quite a while. Last year they are believed to pay $10 billion for this.
Now Google will pay nearly $15 billion in FY 2021 (Apr 2021 ~ Mar 2022). Why Google doing that you ask? They want to ensure Microsoft doesn't outbid it. Microsoft has it own search engine called Bing if you don't know yet. (Android Central)
