Pretty annoyed since lack of water resistance is the one thing I hate about my 4a. I don't think this is really worth the upgrade. It's not coming out anywhere for some reason anyway lol.

Pepsikennedy, 18 Aug 2021Nothing different from my 4a 5G. 🤔Bruh it's actually made of premium materials and ain't some cheap plastic plus it's water resistant don't judge a book by its cover.

I already pre-ordered one here in the US.
I like the screen specs compared to other budget-oriented phones I was considering. I like the 5G and many network bands for use in the US. I don't care about ultra fast 5G, but just being able to use the low-mid frequency towers when available for good coverage.
I think more about security lately, and for me the specs just need to be good enough for my basic usage. I see it as $150/year of full software support with some hardware thrown in to make the software work. To answer someone's question of how it differs from the 4a 5G, well a big part is having 1 more year of software updates.
To me, those older phones are useless unless their price drops at the same rate. One year later it should be 33% off, two years later 66% off, and after three years I don't want it. I wish smartphones were like laptops, and I could buy an over-spec unit, have a standard Linux work forever with updates, and use it until it is too slow and underpowered. But the way the market is, I have to consider the hardware a disposable wrapper for the software.

It's a solid device at the price point. Availability in different regions is the disappointment.
I already have the 4a 4G which has a smaller screen and battery, but I pre ordered this already as it's an upgrade also with the IP67 rating! 90hz is nice to have, but I don't NEED it. Fact is most people don't! Forget specs, and focus on real life usage! The Pixel experience is buttery smooth even with 60hz. Most people eventually switch back to 60hz as it consumes more battery.
60hz plus WiFi with this thing is gonna last two days considering the fact my 4a 4G gets me through the day 7-8hrs SOT.

some random dude, 18 Aug 2021Slightly disappointed that the 5a is barely different from ... moreYes, battery life should be unbeatable in this segment, no 90hz and pixels os and adaptive battery should make it dominate

Alexandre, 18 Aug 2021So basically the only real reason this screen is not 90Hz i... moreYes they should have added it, but not having it is okay on pixel phones as they feel very fast and smooth compared to competition because of their os, same thing with cameras, outdated hardware, yet still at top of the game, how dare competitors not get up to the standard?

Alexandre, 18 Aug 2021So basically the only real reason this screen is not 90Hz i... moreI only use higher refresh rate for mobile gaming. For the rest of the time, I switch to 60Hz. So 60Hz screen is still relevant enough for me.

Screen width(73.7mm) is very little, where we used to in 75 or 76. Other seems ok.

Slightly disappointed that the 5a is barely different from the 4a 5G, but I am still interested in this phone. First Pixel to have a massive battery and an actually wide ultrawide. Really interested in the battery life of this thing. 60Hz, 1080p, 4680mAh, and efficient software. Really really interested.
