Anonymous, 12 Aug 2023Would you recommend 6aActually it depends on where you are and how much you are getting one for.
Where I am, it's literally 30% cheaper than Samsung's A5X series. So the 6a is a no-brainer purchase - it's simply better by all means and a steal at it's current price.
Also the fact that it still has OS support and security patches for a couple more years means it's like getting a cheaper flagship.
Performance is still king and I often find myself using the Pixel 6a over my higher priced Galaxy phones.

    My take. I was only gonna use this as an interim phone until I could a find another S20 (I like pocketable phones) in great condition. After 2 months, I must say I am quite impressed by it. No one should let the A label or the "budget " buzzword discourage them. Unlike Samsung, Google's A's have the same processor as their more feature rich on paper bigger brothers. Charging is a little slow. I don't game so I can't speak to that. It's snappy. Been running 14 beta for about a month now with few hiccups. I have Lawnchair launcher installed because it is essentially Pixel launcher with more customizability. I must admit I was an LG fanboy. When they left the game I was heartbroken. Sammy breaks phones via update when they don't want you to enjoy them anymore. I'm just glad there is a viable alternative for people who don't want to spend a thousand bucks on a phone. PS. Samsung is really the default Google phone!

          It is good enough, but Google's postprocessing and Samsung's higher quality optics are noticeably/significantly better. Also, nothing tuned the camera for the first 5-6 months after release, when it got much better. Still, it is an inferior phone for capturing photos.

          Nothing's main issue is sw support. Pixel and Samsung will still have security updates for 4+ years if buying today, but nothing is promising 2-3.

            Booby , 15 Jun 202360hz doesn't make any phone feel sluggish. However, if... moreFrame dips are often much worse than low refresh rate. I feel if the 6a can do a locked 60, it would be much better than some phones which can onscreen render to 120hz(so something powerful), but has like really low 1% lows(30-40 fps for a few seconds). I haven't tested this yet, but it would be interesting to see if the 6a can stay locked at 60 for more intensive titles at something reasonable(1080p medium perhaps?)

                    Critical reviews for the google pixel 6a are exaggerated, the performance is related to the price.

Screen dimming comes even before the hard processor throttling, let's say at the first step. Weird I'm the only one reporting that, it's definitely temperature based, I have validated that. Regarding why you have experienced no throttling, maybe the games you play are well optimized. The pixel 6a uses a powerful processor after all.

                              Can you elaborate these so called "bugs" and bad GUI?
                              And the phone is "thick" despite being smaller than most Flagships/Midrange devices?
                              Camera is "Artificial" even though everyone agrees it has some of the most natural images produced by a mid range device?
                              Ok...

                                A54 heats like mad, has inconsistent camera capabilities and for some reason has the worst battery life in a mid range device ever.
                                6a wipes the floor with it, but even the A34 is better than it, and yes, even the camera. Samsung really dropped the ball with the A54.
                                Shockingly, I have tried the M54 as well and it's a better phone than the A54, despite not having OS support.

                                  I haven't ever experienced what you mentioned, with screen dimming while gaming, is this some kind of bug I'm not aware of?

                                  I've been gaming on the 6a for quite some time since I got mine (I bought it 3 months ago, yes pixel phones arrive really late in the Middle East as they aren't officially launched here).

                                  I never found the 60hz screen troublesome for gaming, I also have an S22 Ultra and I can't really tell the difference between them when gaming using the touch screen, I assume using a controller and actually being able to pay attention to the whole screen may change my mind?
                                  Anyways, I am curious about the temperature issues you mentioned, I never experienced them save for the warm body of the phone after 20 mins of gaming, but no dimming or slowdowns whatsoever?

                                    WARZONEmobileplaya, 01 Aug 2023What do you mean it's not ideal for gaming? What games... moreI'm my experience, playing even moderately demanding games such as real racing 3 results in overheat and throttling in about 15 mins or so. Also, the screen brightness lowers. Maybe it's the warm climate of Cyprus, maybe if you live in Scandinavia or Canada you'll never experience that.

                                    Another reason why this phone isn't idea for gaming is lack of high refresh rate. I have up on playing some games I enjoyed on my previous device, which supported 120hz, because they felt so choppy on the 6a.

                                    A third reason why it's not ideal for gaming is it's mediocre battery life, combined with slow charging speeds.

                                    All that said, I still love the Pixel for entirely different reasons. Personally, I think gamers should go for a Poco or something like that.
