FWIW, the new phone (a Pixel 6 Pro) arrived today. Things started out well (Google has made the transfer of data from an old phone very easy), but it went downhill from there. After seeming to pair as a key, it failed to work when I actually wanted it to, and I ended up deleting the Tesla app (multiple times), re-starting the phone (multiple times), restarting the car's computer (multiple times), and it still wouldn't work. At different times, the option to set up the phone as a key disappeared from the Tesla app or failed with a "disconnect other paired devices" message. This was infuriating, because I didn't have anything else I'd paired with either the car or the phone with me. I Googled the phrase and found some threads, but the suggested fixes didn't work for me. In frustration, I set off to my nearest Tesla store to see if they'd have better luck. When I was a couple miles away from the store, I realized that the "other paired devices" might have referred to my old phone, which, although it was not with me in the car, was likely within Bluetooth range in my house. Sure enough, when I pulled into the parking lot, the new phone paired and worked when I tested it. Tesla could be more specific about this in their error message. Time will tell if the phone-as-key works in the future....
Then the KVM switch for my computers started acting up. That's another matter, but it's been a day of techno-annoyances.
I'm posting this in case somebody else runs into the same problem; maybe it'll save some frustration.
