Generally, some of the advantages of the Canon 6D compared to other pro DSLR competitors include: it is much less noisy at high ISO (2,340 ISO vs 1,815 ISO), has much wider dynamic range (12.1 EV vs 11.9 EV), has a built-in GPS, is slightly less expensive ($999.00 vs $2,353.59) and is thinner (2.8" vs 3.1").
However, on average it has much lower image quality (82.0 vs 93.0), has much less color depth (23.8 bits vs 24 bits), has a significantly smaller screen (3" vs 3.2"), takes slightly lower resolution photos (20.9 MP vs 24.2 MP) and doesn't have a touch screen.
Generally, some of the advantages of the Canon 6D compared to boutique competitors include: it has a much longer battery life (980 shots vs 370 shots), is thinner (2.8" vs 3.3"), has a built-in GPS, has interchangeable lenses and is significantly less expensive ($999.00 vs $2,299.00).
However, on average it has a slightly smaller screen (3" vs 3.2"), has a much lower resolution screen (1,040k dots vs 2,100k dots), takes slightly lower resolution photos (20.9 MP vs 30.1 MP), significantly lower maximum light sensitivity (25,600 ISO vs 102,400 ISO) and doesn't have a touch screen.
Generally, some of the advantages of the Canon 6D compared to entry-level DSLR competitors include: it has a slightly higher resolution screen (1,040k dots vs 460k dots), much larger viewfinder (0.71x vs 0.53x), has a weather sealed body, has much less startup delay (500 ms vs 700 ms) and has higher quality type of viewfinder (pentaprism vs pentamirror).
However, on average it records higher quality movies (1080p @ 30fps vs 1080p @ 60fps), doesn't have a touch screen, doesn't have a screen which flips out, has much more shutter lag (290 ms vs 173 ms) and slightly fewer lenses available (165 lenses vs 230 lenses).
Generally, some of the advantages of the Canon 6D compared to mirrorless interchangeable-lens competitors include: it has higher quality type of viewfinder (pentaprism vs digital), has much less startup delay (500 ms vs 1700 ms), much more lenses available (165 lenses vs 58 lenses), has a much longer battery life (980 shots vs 390 shots) and uses fast phase detection autofocus (phase detection vs hybrid detection).
However, on average it records higher quality movies (1080p @ 30fps vs UHD @ 30fps), doesn't have image stabilization (none vs sensor shift), takes slightly lower resolution photos (20.9 MP vs 36.2 MP), doesn't have a touch screen and doesn't shoot as fast continuously (4.5 fps vs 10 fps).
