Pros
Great screen
Fast response
Cons
No SD card
The inbuilt launcher is too restrictive. Customisation such as icon shape are not available. I installed the Nova launcher which helps, but I expected better from Android’s creator. They seem to be trying to imitate Apple by not allowing users to customise their experience. Bad move, people use Android BECAUSE it can and look different user to user
Other than that, a nice phone
I like the phone but the fingerprint sensor is annoyingly bad on the lock screen yet it works perfectly everytime when it’s needed to open apps. I’ve tried deleting my fingerprints, changing fingers and starting again and downloaded all of the updates available but the problem persists. Hopefully a future update will sort it, if not then I’ll just grin and bear i
Must admit this purchase was the result of a broken screen on my Pixel 6a, though I wanted to stick to familiar territory.
Ultimately very happy with my purchase, as expected with the Pixel line you get a device that simply does what you need it to do at a very affordable price. I did notice that cameras have a slight improvement over its predecessor, albeit not an earth shattering change, overall still very happy with the shots I can get from something that fits in my pocket.
The addition of wireless charging which the 6a lacked does open some oppurtunities to clean up my work desk which is a welcome addition. Safe to say I’ll be using this device for quite some time.
I am very happy with the phone itself so far. However am disappointed in that I ordered Charcoal but Snow was delivered. Inconvenient to swap so have to live with what I did not order.
This is a good phone but takes a little time to get my settings right. My only criticism is that the “Google search bar” cannot be removed or relocated and the app suggestions when you use the “search bar” are very annoying.
love the phone excellent camera and battery life. the under screen fingerprint read is about 30% works unlike the pixel 2 finger print reader on the back, just awkward having to type password when it fails which it does a lot.
I like the size of the phone. It is compact for pocket and handbag and has all the features and my previous Samsung phone and performs just as well. However it needs an eye kept on battery performance as it drains quite quickly. It ‘died’ on a day out – once I noticed it had only 19 percent remaining I didn’t use it but it completely drained anyway. That’s my only gripe!
First order was an empty box, presumably half-inched by some swine in the delivery chain.
Amazon did their thing and sent us another next day (I have to credit them here. Box felt light so we videod opening it. Amazon rep: “No, we don’t need the video, we trust our customers”. Remarkable service all carried out by text during a car journey).
Boy very happy with the phone, great camera etc.
But… The charger died a few months after delivery. Then the cable.
Contacted Amazon expecting to be referred to the manufacturer, but no. Given a 10% credit that covered a new, nicer, charger.
Again… remarkable.
Feels a bit churlish leaving only 4 stars after such great service, but we now suspect Google’s chargers aren’t very good which reduces the point of the ‘Charger included’ deal.
Amazon, however: in this instance – easy five out of five stars.
Absolutely love my Pixel 7a. Coming from cheaper variants this feels like a much more expensive phone than I’m used to. I have used Samsung etc in the past but stopped as they were full of bloatware and started getting way too expensive.
Sound quality is great in calls and through the speaker. Full of really useful features like screen call. Camera is amazing. The free Pixel buds are great and the charger was nice too. I’ve seen a lot of reviews slate the finger print scanner, I’ve have zero issues with it, works like 99% of the time. It only doesn’t like it when I’ve just washed my hands or something, which is understandable.
My one small criticism is the battery life isn’t amazing but I’m a light user, I can get nearly 3 days battery before I charge, which is good enough. Will always be upgrading to Google phones now, just loving the features and overall quality of it.
No issues with the phone so far. Battery easily lasts a day and no early adopter bugs found so far.
Superb phone for the price. Fast processor, silky smooth display, great cameras and the convenience of no third party bloatware. My previous Pixels have lasted for over 3 years too.
Phones will always be a personal preference but I haven’t come away from the Google Pixel for many years now, for good reason. Highly recommended.
The selfie camera is good as well, with a 13MP camera that also lets you record 4K video! Most budget smartphones have selfie cameras with only FullHD video. The camera features on the Pixel 7a are really good, with motion blur for waterfall photography, light painting, and a great night mode. It’s a nice phone to use as well, nice and snappy and the IP67 rating means you can get it wet without worrying too much. At this price point it’s difficult to find a phone anywhere near as good as this one.
