The entries will be judged as following. 30% weight will be given to incorporation of the Google Pixel 6 Front-Facing Camera. 20% of the score will include an entry’s suitability for use on Google Pixel 6 Home Screens (for example: does the wallpaper take applications into consideration or does it obscure the Google Pixel 6 status bar, application shelf, date, time, and weather).

The winner will be selected on September 9th

Another 20% will be based on the entry’s “Brand Appropriateness.” For example, did you include Google’s blue, red, yellow, and green? And another 20% of the score will be determined on the use of space on the home screen.

The winner will be selected on or about September 9, 2022 at 11:59 PM ET and he or she will receive notification from Google. The winner will also be named on social-media posting. One winner will receive a Google Pixel device and a case. The retail value of the prize is $899 which makes us believe that the prize will be a Google Pixel 6 Pro. If you’ve been hankering for this device but it blows up your budget, start coming up with a compelling wallpaper design that incorporates the front-facing camera!
