Google launched its 2021 flagship devices earlier this month in the form of the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro. The new smartphones are the first in line to feature a Google-powered chipset, an improved camera system, and Android 12 operating system. If you’re someone who has already gotten your hands on the latest Pixels, you might be wondering one thing: how to turn off your Pixel 6.

Why? Because when you try to turn off your Pixel 6 the conventional way by long-pressing the power button, you’ll see Google Assistant kick in instead of showing the power menu. This is because Google has changed the way the power button works on the Pixel 6, much like its competitors (Apple and Samsung) who force their digital assistants (Siri and Bixby) onto their flagship phones.

So, how do you turn off your Pixel 6? This post will help you understand all the ways you can activate the Power menu on the latest Pixel smartphones.

Since long-pressing the power button on the Pixel 6 opens Google Assistant, the only way to turn this device off using physical buttons is to press the volume up button and the power button at the same time.
