Google made SURE to ruin this phone. Hopefully a factory reset will bring it back to its "glory", but if the update actually damaged the battery from an electrical standpoint, I'm cooked. Repairmen regularly crack Pixel 4a screens, and either way, I don't get the free replacement in my country. Luckily the used market is great here

Mindboggling that a site like GSM Arena, who's sole purpose is to report on mobile news, hasn't reported on the recent 4a update released by Google that will intentionally decrease battery charge rates and total charge levels. Engadget has a news article on it from a half-day ago as of this post.
My opinions from my own time with the 3a still stand. Google has, is, and will continue to enforce planned obsolesence on their tech in the name of profits. It's one of the reasons I am seriously considering a Fairphone (currently using a Xperia 1iii, which aside from a lack of updates has been a lot more solid than the updates the 3a got - each one made it worse)

Just bought 4a used, then returned it after a week of testing. Nice device even in 2024: fast, compacts, with a very good camera. Had to return it because the power button was faulty: it would restart the phone and call emergency on it's own from time to time. Also the screen had a green hue. And some issues with pixel experience which were not fixed since 3a. I guess all pixels have build issues, that was my 3rd one.

I have this phone with me as a spare phone mainly for data hotspot. To my surprise the camera is still good and the phone is fast enough for my use as I dont play games at all. But the battery life is atrocious. I have it on battery saving mode all the time. The form factor is fantastic, it feels so small compared to my daily driver Pixel 6 Pro. For those who wanna buy it in 2024, I would say don't!

on2wheels, 31 Jan 2024Flashed it to 11, doesn't have the screen-power button... moreDefinitely not. The only upgrade to pixel would be a pixel but google doesn't seeem to putting any effort on performance numbers. Prices are increasing though.

Flashed it to 11, doesn't have the screen-power button in the pull-down menu. Flashed it to 12 and living our best life, 3.5 years after release. Still get a day+ on a charge no problem. Moto G84 is calling my name though... should I upgrade?
