Estimated battery life based on testing using a median Pixel user battery usage profile across a mix of talk, data, standby and use of other features. Average battery life during testing was approximately 29 hours. Battery life depends upon many factors and usage of certain features will decrease battery life. Battery testing conducted in California in early 2022 on pre-production hardware and software, using default settings. Battery testing conducted using Sub-6 GHz non-standalone 5G (ENDC) connectivity. Actual battery life may be lower. Estimated battery life based on testing using a mix of talk, data, standby and use of limited other features that are default in Extreme Battery Saver mode (which disables various features including 5G connectivity). Battery testing conducted on a major operator network. Battery testing conducted in California in early 2022 on pre-production hardware and software using default settings, except that Extreme Battery Saver mode was enabled. Battery life depends upon many factors and usage of certain features will decrease battery life. Actual battery life may be lower. Wired charging rates up to 18W based on use of Google 30W USB-C or Google 18W USB-C Charger plugged into a wall outlet. Actual results may be slower. Adapters sold separately.

I had been looking for a phone to replace my much loved LG G6 which was slowly dying. I toyed between the Pixel 6a and a samsung. After reading several reviews, comparing models and cost, the Pixel 6a seemed to tick all the boxes. Great reviews for the camera, easy to use etc. While I can live with the fingerprint reader being a bit flaky, I have to say I am disappointed with the camera. It’s not as good as my LG G6 if you just point and click. It may be better however, the tips guide on how to operate the camera is awful. It may sound old fashioned but a users guide included with the phone would have been helpful rather than having to go between a website and operating the camera.
Love everything about this fon except for the fact that there’s no charger. You have to buy yourself a plug head for the cable provided in order to charge it. I like it’s size, weight and slimness.
This is a great camera and I am keeping it… I am managing battery life by charging evey night…. Might be worth on travels to have a charging bank. Will keep eye on the market.
This phone surpassed my expectations. I can’t upload photo because im using it, but it was in sealed boxed perfect condition and works perfect with my ISP. You may have to select LTE or HSPA or w/e. Fingerprint reader struggles a bit, but in time you get the hang of it. Photos are amazing… This phone is much better than the Samsung A53 5G which my wife currently using.
I was skeptical about buying pre-owned but this phone was in excellent condition a slight scuff mark which I knew about but apart from they phone was excellent conditio
Runs any app without problems, and battery lasts the day
My wife bought this because she can’t stand big bulky smartphones and so far she’s happy with it. The phone is very fast, everything works as it should and to a high degree of quality (camera, sound, screen, etc.). The only complaints would be that battery life is not as good as you would expect from a 5000mah battery and it only works with PD chargers and cables (of which we only have two around the house).
The adaptor converts it to from Male C USB to Female A USB which means you have to find a double ended male A USB cable to be able to plug it into your wall charger or laptop or you have to buy a charger separately.
Never had this problem or complication with any other phones, normally you have Mini USB or C to A cable which connects into the charger, wall charger or laptop…simple.
Cannot review the phone yet as I cannot charge it and use it. But just wanted to let people know you may not have the sockets, adaptor or charger to charge it and will have to purchase extra items.
Build quality – excellent, feels solid, no flex, plastic back doesn’t feel like plastic and if you use a case there is no issue with scratching
Screen – bright (fine in daylight), sharp, vivid colours, responsive. 60Hz not an issue at all. Like the smaller screen which makes the phone easy to hold.
Camera – excellent. Easy to use, good range of options, accurate focus. Personally I find the photos a little too processed. Magic eraser easy to use and reasonably effective.
Battery – very good, easily lasts whole day with moderate use.
Speakers – clear, could do to be a tad louder, no distortion.
Phone – good signal, clear phone calls
WiFi – excellent, both 2.4 and 5GHz.
Finger print reader – probably the worst thing about the phone. Works 90% of the time. Latest update seems to have improved things.
Processor – Billy wizz!!! Exceptionally fast. Has handled everything with ease. No heat issues.
Software – very much stock Android with a few extra tweeks. Lovely clean interface and not cluttered with junk apps. Updates guaranteed for several years.
Would I but it again? Definitely! Even better value with recent price drops.
Easy to transfer all my data over from my last pixel phone .
Much faster performance than my last pixel ( but then it should be 3 years on)
Quite heavy but that is a plus to me . No overheating issue like some others have reported.
My main gripe, and reason for only giving it 4 stars, is that it’s just a bit too big and quite a lot too heavy. The glass body is lovely but I would guess most folk will put on a bumper case to protect their phone, so no one is ever going to see that loveliness. Because of the extra weight, that case has to be more substantial if it’s going to adequately protect the phone from a drop.
I have mine in a well made bumper case. I’m very glad I bought it because it saved the phone from a drop onto a tiled floor, but it adds a few millimeters all round and the ‘phone pocket’ in my jacket is no longer big enough for the phone plus bumper case. Also, the substantial weight means the magnetic phone holder in my car can no longer supports my phone. These things may seem trivial but they are actually really annoying.
I don’t see the advantage of a 6 point something screen over a 5 point something screen. You gain very little, if anything, from the bigger size but give up a lot in terms of handling and weight. I guess the shared form factor keeps the production costs down, but I won’t be buying a phone this size again.
