Hey Google good job! All three of my friends were able to unlock my phone with their fingerprint without being registered. Not only the lockscreen, also my ebanking. So if my phone got stolen all of my personal information would be out in the open. Fix your fingerprint problems ASAP, it took 100 times to register my own fingerprint and now it's unlocked with everybody's fingerprint

GSM arena has posted it's endurance ratings as well. I'm coming from Xiaomi as well. Software experience is better on Google. Xiaomi close second with features. I'm okay with one hour charging as phone lasts much longer. My Xiaomi 11T even with the 67w charging I needed a charger 2-3 times a day. Now I don't even bother to carry a charger at work.

Me and my wife have used various phones over the years (excl. iphones), and this phone is amazing for shooting kids pictures. Samsungs have been terrible with shutter speed even though it can be manually adjusted. We are not pro photo people. We want to take pictures of kids going crazy around. Most other brands have been blurry and distorted with kids pictures but pixel 6a is just on another level. Plus, I bought the phone for 200 euros from someone who used it for only one day and decided to go back to iPhone. I feel that this was such a timely and sweet deal for us.

You can literally learn all of its specifications online yet you went and buy it even though you know its screen, battery, and charging speed doesn't suit your preference. This is why you should first make a research about your future purchases so that you don't end up feeling underwhelmed.

I'm returning this phone because I'm completely underwhelmed by it. I genuinely don't understand why it has so many glowing reviews! My 2-year old Redmi note 9 pro charged faster and lasted much longer than the 6a. It also feels too small in my hands, I find it kind of difficult to text. I don't even have especially big hands. I'm off to buy another Xiaomi for £100-£200 less.

Why should you get this phone? Google has fixed all the bugs with the Android 13 patches. Fingerprint is good 9/10 times accurate. Just register same thumb twice as well if someone still having issues.Camera is excellent. Some shots give iphone pro models a run for the money. Phone is relatively cooler and charging takes a little more than one hour which is healthy for longer battery life. Battery back up is easily one day. I used to carry charger at work. No more. Lasts easily and if you turn on saver mode it easily lasts more than 24 hrs. Phone is snappy don't feel much difference from 120hz screen. Screen size is good for watching HDR+ content. Coming from 6.7 inch and 120hz big phone like this better. If you can go for Pixel 7 is also better but if you want the best bang for your buck. Google Pixel 6a is the best budget Android experience. Easy to recommend. Ignore the haters. Dual tone colors and Star wars camera bar and best camera for 2022 stands out in the crowd.

Pixel 6a lasts more than a day if you also use battery saver Option. Didn't notice any difference as most apps are capped at 60hz. Perfect sub 500$ phone period.

5G on all the time, data on all the time, messaging apps allowed to run in the background without restriction.

Maybe it switched to it on its own when I had no battery, but in general, it seemed fine. As soon as I discovered and switched to 120Hz though, oh boy it felt smooth like butter. So, in summary, 120Hz feels awesome, 60Hz feels fine.

Coming from a 120 Hz pho... moreIt wont feel choppy because its a new phone, but you will definitely see a difference going from 144hz to 60hz as it is lower refresh rate so it will kind of feel kinda slower. It's just like looking at a less smooth screen thats all. Try watching a 60fps video, then a 30fps video and it will kind of show you more or less the difference.

Pixel 6a seems to make slightly better photos (and bigger battery but reports from users seem to indicate around the same battery life) but no jack and card storage, aside from that they look very similar
