Where's the battery endurance score? Pixel with the largest battery and they don't test this feature at all or what?

Looking forward to the battery test,the standard 9 did ok with a smaller battery and if this has the same screen and a larger battery and better heat management then surely it should improve on the already good pixel 9??Come on gsmarena where is the full review a lot of people are seriously considering buying this handset get a move on.Times are tight and people are moving towards mid range,flagships are not for the masses.

Give me Gorilla Glass 3 and plastic backs any day. All this Victus glass just jacks up the price and is less scratch resistant than older glass (these newer glass' are more shatter resistant but worse when it comes to scratches).

Invetor, 13 Apr 2025why would you want a Pixel 9a over an iPhone 13 pro max? 😐🙄iPhones are nothing special,it's well used and needs a battery change and will never get any better,and it's bulky and heavy and been dropped many times,it sometimes freezes and the signal isn't very good.

Regardless there is no reasonable use to require SD cards in the first place. Unless you're recording videos for multiple hours a day, while also away from a workstation it would be really hard to fill up this phone, even moreso that it can't even play AAA phone games. So why exactly do you need it?

And the envirnment friendly does not ev makes sense
It was a smart marketing apple trick, looking 'high end' and make it fragile ( glueing motherboard on glass backdefinitely non repairable... Real experience )
But jackasssses will claim it's smart or for wireless or someting.

"But no, they are the same 4mm thick on the sides as they were last year and instead of the bottom bezel being significantly thicker, it's only about half a millimeter thicker than the sides and the same thickness as the top bezel"
I really like this part where you explain the bezel condition of the phone. For the niche audience that cares about bezel uniformity, this is a much-appreciated detail—not many reviewers mention this factor!

Anonymous, 14 Apr 2025Don't need SD card, just transfer to PC or external SSD Too cumbersome carrying around extra stuff(cables, dongles,adapters) that could be lost or is heavy like a laptop compared to a small even smaller than your thumb microsd card.
