    Mine also died a couple days ago. Lasted for a bit over a year. Shame, but it is what it is. Could have been a decent phone if it wasn't for the no good motherboard.

I'd hold down the power button or the power and volume down buttons but nothing was working. After 2hrs I held the power and volume down buttons for 30sec and it randomly turned back on (I think in safe mode). I called my phone repair shop and they told me to buy a lottery ticket because I'd lucked out. Apparently Google Pixel 5a's are known to have motherboard failures out of nowhere and nothing can be done to fix it. I'm pretty upset because as you can see from my previous comment I absolutely love my 5a 5G, but now I've been instructed to buy a new phone for when it inevitably happens again. I'm currently looking at the 6a as the 7a has screen failure issues as well. Wish me luck.

                      I moved up from the Google Pixel 3a XL to the Pixel 5a 5G with Verizon. I have no complaints. Having a phone with the option of a headphone jack is nice, the camera is good, and it runs quickly and smoothly. The only issue I've come across is the bluetooth occasionally has minor issues staying connected to headphones, but this was also an occasional issue with the Pixel 3a XL. I enjoy this phone and would buy it again.

                            Bought pixel 5a5G in September 2021. Unfortunately, suddenly got switched off in February 2023. Now died condition. Don't know where to give for repair and how to work again.

                              IdiesBlancNeige, 02 Feb 2023This one or 6A.Depending on the price, I chose the 5A because i got a excellent refurbished version from Amazon for 156$ which is about 100$ cheaper than a refurbished 6a. The Pixel 4 phones are sold with a similar price range as refurbished (140-180$). An other excellent choice would be buying a refurbished pixel 6 for 200-230$ or a refurbished Pixel 6 pro for 300-330$.
                              If you want a brand new phone then you should buy the 6a for 299 instead.

                                  Ive had this phone since April of 2022. Came to it from my Pixel 4a which i had for around a year and had nothing but a great experience with that phone until the screen cracked. Onto the 5a. Well I can say I've not been pleased one bit since owning it.

                                  From day one I've had issues with the 5g switching between 4g LTE and 5g and losing connection when it switches. Happens both at my house and in the heart of Minneapolis, which should have reliable 5g through t mobile.

                                  Issue two, which is likely the largest, the phone overheats very easily. With my 4a i only had an overheat warning once when i accidently left it on a chair in the sun for about a 30 minutes. This phone is regularity above 100 degrees internally, almost on a daily basis. And at least weekly it's giving me messages that features are turned off while the device cools. Happens with maps, chrome, android auto, you name it this thing is overheating if it's used.

                                  Third gripe is the battery. New i would get a full day from 4am to 8-9pm. Now it's pretty much dead by noon-2pm. Although I'm sure it has some segregation from all the heat strokes it's suffered from. Perhaps it's a defective phone? But either way it's not been pleasant. I can't upgrade to anything newer from Google without losing my beloved headphone jack, so not sure where I'm going to be going next but that's my $0.02
