I cant believe cell phone manufacturers were successful in conditioning consumers that $449 is "budget"
Tell the lie long enough, people will take it as the truth
$449 used to high for a mid-range.
inclusive Pixel Bus A-series ☝️👌
In America I guess
In Europe budget phones are 200 euros Xiaomi/Poco/Redmi/Redmi Note/Realme/Oppo/OnePlus
Lol

Stock Android devices and material UI are incredibly smooth, but I understand you've never used either of them.
Thank you for the info on the 6a! I saw some bad comments on it but still decided to buy it.
Excellent review! So great, I subscribed!!!
I have ordered this phone yesterday and super excited to you it for it. I was using android 6 phone for the past couple of years and wanted to switched campact decent phone. This phone was in my radar for months and not will get delivered to me in couple of days.🎉
Hey! That was an amazing review! Subscribed to you man! Your quality content made a fan of yours in a few minutes! 😄♥️
I hope your channel grows more and more day by day. ♥️
Excellent accurate review. I too experienced that the Phone had accidental touches somehow when kept in my pocket triggering emergency dialling. I don't know why that happens. So strange
I ❤️ your channel. The image and sound quality is bright, colorful and clear 👍👍🌟. I have a Pixel 6, i think I have to buy 6a or an old 4xl as backup during my trips to the country side 🤔. You'll never miss a great shot with a pixel phone 👍✨❤️
This is A+ content. Well done, you earned a sub ❤️
The issue for ghosting touch is because you may turn on the increase touch sensitivity... I did have this issue too and once it's turned off, no problem since then
Got mine about a week ago. Regarding the 60Hz drama, I feel like the phone is fast enough and UI is smooth enough that you barely even notice it's 60Hz. Also I value battery life way more than refresh rate, so it's a win for me either way.
Loving the phone so far. I only wish it was a bit more customizable since I came from a Xiaomi phone and they excel at customization thanks to MIUI.
Also the speakers are underrated af. One of the best speakers I've seen in a smartphone.
@@wizdomly No battery issues so far. Battery life is noticeably shorter but still solid battery life overall. The biggest issue I have with the phone is the fingerprint sensor. It just doesn't work half the time. The rest of the phone is fine
@@kemulli14 i am getting discounted offer on 6 which makes it same price almost as 6a, and i am thinking to get it. what are your thoughts? i want to switch back to android.... does it have better or same battery as iphone 13? also I read there is some heating issue, is it? maybe face unlock be better option if finger sensor doesnt work? btw thanks for replying
@@wizdomly From what I've seen on comparison videos Pixel 6a is comparable to iPhone 13 in most categories, so I would say if you've got a good deal go for Pixel 6 or 6 Pro
same i got mine at launch and my fingerprint has worked amazing and always had
Great video Fenson! Pixel 6 A is such a value for money for sure!
Thank you so much JB! 😁
Great job as always. I do prefer the more premium look and feel of the standard Pixel 6. The 6a looks and feels cheap (after holding and comparing both myself) in comparison but that is to be expected. So don't expect a smaller copy of the 6 standard. It is very much a cheaper built with less of everything, But the 6a is the best bang for the buck there is unless the 6 is on offer. Keep it up!
I bought it for $299! Can't really beat that price
@@jcasma same
Nice video..sounds like a really good value for the average normal phone user
I really like how they have been doing the square corners.
Nice video man ! Keep it up
Nice video
Which wallpaper you have used mate ?
amazing quality videos good channel keep it up +1 sub
Just picked one up to replace my iPhone 12 that can't last 1/2 the day before needing a charger. I'm looking forward to the change, I've switched back and forth from iOS to Android since the 3GS and the original Motorola Droid and ever since. The price alone is making the swap worth it the try.
If your iPhone 12 is giving battery issues, it might be more cost effective to replace the battery than to replace the phone. The pixel 6A is awesome that seems like a little downgrade to me
@@Darkreaper71 Not even remotely a downgrade especially considering I got it for $100 unlocked. Aside from that, not being locked in to the apple ecosystem anymore is worth the small price.
@@Ontheroad13 I've used both those phone and prefer the pixel myself as I don't like iOS. In general I believe it's statistically a downgrade but if it benefits your qol then I'm sure it's not
@@Darkreaper71 Thankfully statistics don't make as much of a difference anymore in practical use of a phone. In daily use, there isn't a metric that makes a 2 year old phone a better choice. That's ignoring the issues already raised and putting aside better photo processing, longer supported updates, better repairability, larger customization market, software, price. I see the benefits of both but the only way the 12 comes out on top is if you only focus on Geekbench scores.
great video. Question what are some of the better setting and application for the 6a just purchased mine a few days ago....
2:52 do you have gesture screen wake on (flip to wake, etc)? That up movement of your leg while the phone is in the pocket could cause it to wake.
Awesome review. May you grow more!
Great review
Brother u got new subscriber, i trust u to review the pixel 7/7pro when it comes out this fall👌
Just amazing review brother 🖤
Mindset for google pixel 6a,
Thank you so much 😊 for your opinion 😊
The biggest problem I have with my 6A is that the bluetooth constantly drops my Pixel Bud Pros. Very annoying. Also the when I'm listening to Spotify, the phone doesn't ring and the buds don't switch over. They also don't switch over to hear a voicemail and I have to reconnect them. What does the 6A bluetooth just suck?
I Got it in around $300 from Flipkart big billion days and at this price tag, none can beat this phone's experience 😎.
Nonsense youtubers comparing iphones with pixel, with iPhone having double the price 🙄
So excited!!!
You getting the phone? Thanks for watching! 😁
I got mine the other day, so I only had Android 12 on it for a few hrs while I was installing, updating, configuring my apps, and I did feel that the launcher UI was a bit choppy, but after upgrading to Android 13 it is now properly smooth. Not sure if that was what improved things, or just because it has all this AI stuff that tries to optimise things in the background, and it just takes a while to settle down?!
Yaaaa for sure! Every phone goes through a lot of stress when doing all the initial setup, but it settles down quickly! Android 13 definitely fixed alot of the issues in Android 12 is so much smoother! Hope you enjoy the phone! Thanks for watching! 😁
Hey! How is it doing a month later?
@@CakeOfSomething great phone! I am blown away by the quality of the 4K RAW video it can shoot using MotionCam
@@wandiloch Awesome! Thanks for your time :)
You’re not alone regarding the pixel dialing numbers and etc in your pocket, my pixel 6 is horrible about dialing my emergency contacts in my pocket even while the screen should be off. Great video.
Ahhh that's unfortunate ☹️ Apparently someone said disabling double to wake would fix the issue but I just gave the phone to my brother so I can't test it anymore 😅 Thanks for watching! 😁
Phantom touches in the pocket was a known issue at the start of the year with 6 & 6 Pro. There was an update (January I think) that acknowledged and fixed this. But since moving from 13 beta to 13 stable, the issue is back on my 6 Pro. So you're definitely not alone.
@@chuff009 I've had the 6 since about a month after launch. The main three issues I had with 12 were battery life, fingerprint sensor and Bluetooth issues. Since the 13 update, I've had phantom touches in the pocket and absolutely horrible battery life. It drops almost 10% an hour being idle.
Yep, same with the pixel 4a too...
great review dawg
I appreciate your real-world review. My concern is how well the fingerprint reader works with a screen protector. I'd say most folks would use a case AND a screen protector these days. Thanks!
I actually used a screen protector from Day 1 and the fingerprint scanner worked so much better than the Pixel 6 when it first launched! I’m sure it’ll be fine! Thanks for watching! 😁
@@Gadgetsu thanks for the clarification. That's great news.
my pixel 6a will be delivered on 14 sept excited>>
What about Flipkarts offer?didn't wait?
@@vineethc2053 i bought the imported unit from amazon for 32k
YOOOOO that's great! You're gonna love it! I just gave the phone to my little brother! Thanks for watching! 😁
Got mine delivered today for £319 after the google discount on the 9/9 sale and a further discount from my google one account credit that I had! Can’t go wrong at that price 👀🚨
That's absolutely amazing! I hope you enjoy the phone! Thanks for watching! 😁
Got this in January thanks so much for sharing 🙂❤️
Awesome! I really hope you enjoy the phone! Thanks for watching! 😁
Really great video, new subscriber :)
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it! 😁
Great review I really like pixel devices and pixel experience.
I have noticed your phone wallpaper It is very eye-catching please send me the link of it. Thanks🙂
Thanks for the review in the perspective of an average phone user! My quality of life will not be affected if the refresh rate isnt 120hz or if the phone is warm to the touch, I'm not on the pursuit of perfection, but looking for a healthy compromise between price and quality
Well said. They fact that people are complaining about issues that most phones in this price range have is absurd. I came to Pixel 6a from a Xiaomi Redmi 9 which is like $150 phone and the difference in the performance and overall experience is immeasurable.
Been holding out with the Pixel 2 XL. Only looking to switch bc battery is not what it was and camera doesn't work anymore lol. Waiting to see what the Pixel 7 has + what it's preorder gets me before officially deciding! (Assuming price tag is 600 from rumors I've heard. Willing to spend 150$ more if it means better battery, longevity like my 2XL, UI etc like my). Was thinking of getting the Nothing1 but can't get it in the USA and I guess want to wait until it's had a few more releases to work out its kinks.
The 2XL remains one of the greatest Pixels that Google has ever made. I am still loving mine. If it had a wide angle camera and maybe a new battery, I'd be fully satisfied.
So what did you get?
@@leventejuhasz2525 Pixel 7. Pre-ordered it. Now that I've seen what modern phone designs are idk if I'm ever going back/gonna look at other options for the next one. I hate that (comparison to my 5yo 2xl) the speakers are on the bottom and the fingerprint sensor is on the screen. The OS is great, but pre-ordering was an absolute waste bc it ended up going on sale within 1-2 months so very pissed about that considering I would have rather had 100$ off then have it as in store credit at the Google Play store...which mind you actually has an expiration date, which I was unaware of.at the time of pre-ordering. That being said if you don't care about the above stuff I mentioned as I know it's specific to me, I think the phone is still great for the price.
1ST You are obviously knowledgeable and I enjoyed the video, but whew do you have a time limit or something? Much to fast, i had to rewind many times-granted I'm I'm a senior who just discovered CD's and got rid of my 8 track, but a little slower would be appreciated. I subscribed and look foward to watching so more of your content.
Now that Pixel 6 has dropped in prince is 6a still a good options considering the difference in price is just 90 dollars?
I upgraded from pixel 4a to 6a and great, the video is much better, the size is still fine.
Does the voice dictation and correction feature only apply to English, or will it also work for say German?
How's the display quality?
I've read that it has durability issues because it is easily broken.
Just wish we could have an option for the old control centre.
Really good phone. before i buy it i was concerned about overheating but i suprised works really cold
I am loving the camera.
I always have to disable tap to wake to avoid the screen turning on in my pocket (I don't own the 6a but this has been a persistent problem for me through several pixel phones, and dating back all the way to my LG G6.)
How's the phone's performance after September update.... Any info?
is it a significant upgrade from 4a ? I just bought a pixel 4a last sepetember 2021
How long you think 7a will release after 7 & 7 pro?
Turn off the sensitivity through screen protector and the phone will not dial from your pocket. My phone was doing the same thing
Pixel 6a vs s21 Fe? I'm getting both of them for similar price. I'm a casual user who want amazing camera and display.
That is definitely one of the best budget phones out there.
My new 6a is arriving tomorrow!
The most accurate review till now
I've wanted this phone ever since I heard about the magic eraser 😩 but my tax bracket said no 😂 Great video 👍🏿
Is it getting heat during streaming and videography?
Moving from the 4a to the 6a. Honestly for $240 it was too hard to pass up.
My iPhone 13 gets hot too picked up the pixel 6a to go back to android will use it till next year. Giving my iPhone 13 and Apple Watch SE to my father in law who is using a 16gb iPhone 6s Plus that needs upgrading
Nice!
"Meatier thighs" - not the words you commonly hear in a phone review.
LMAOOOOOO Thanks for watching! 😂
Actually, the spontaneous activation of the phone while in the pocket is not just you. It happens to me all the time but when I store it with screen out the problem is resolved. I'm wondering if it is the proximity sensor that's causing the issue.
Yep, i had the same issue with the pixel 4a too....
I just picked one up just to try out I got it for 199 and if I would done a trade in would of cost only 80 plus tax
I think the OS, security updates, and camera on Pixel Phones makes it one of the best android phone.
agreed
Nice review,underated CZcamsr, you have a bright future ahead, Wouldn't you mind selling me that pixel 6a ,I'm from South Africa
Well I'm not impressed with mine.. just sent mine back after a month as it has severe battery drain and bad over heating. I'm having a new one sent out on warranty but I'm not hoping for the best
Why not just use the Nokia G21 if all you do is text, check social media and click the odd picture?
I am looking forward to receiving my Pixel 6a on Friday, I ordered it for 370€ on the google store, when there was the discount. :) I am finally switching from a four years old Oneplus 6.
Hey am confused in black and white colour which is better as classy
I did the same thing, but the in my case useless fingerprint scanner made me return it after 2 days...
And besided the quality of the screen, it didnt feel like an upgrade from my Oneplus 6..
What do you prefer, pixel 6 or pixel 6a?
Almost everybody's put them phones in plastic case and there are critics about a plastic back? 🤦🏼♂️
How to use PRO mode in this device? ISO , shutter speed these things aren't available in 6a!
i bought this a few weeks ago. it was £399 and i traded my old phone plus a bonus for £243. so really good deal
Does it support carrier aggregation?
My pixel 6 is buggy as hell, there's just too many small issues you cannot ignore, definitely switching to another android phone after this one, which I cannot afford yet. :/
Just bought this phone on the Google store. I killed my 4a on the second day of my vacation in Mexico by getting it wet at the beach. I am excited about trying it out when I return home. Wish Google had an express delivery service that would rush a replacement phone pre-loaded with all of your broken phone's apps straight to you while out of the country but otherwise I am very happy with my pixel phones that started with the pixel 1.
This phone right now in canada is on sale for $100 off the reg price on the google store, amazon canada, and best buy! at best buy as well you can get a pair of google buds type-a for 50% off with the purchase of the phone!
This phone waking unnecessarily when in pocket issue can be solved if you can just turn off the double tap to wake feature, it won't turn on the screen in the pocket.
That's useful to know! Thank you so much! 😁
Great quality videos btw!😁♥️
@@biswajitmaharana8929 That's very kind of you! Thanks! 😁
Everybody complains that it "feels cheaper" but the majority honestly uses a case 🙄😂
Been using this phone for 2 weeks and it's solid. Feels just like a pixel,
and the only complaint I have is that I keep location services on almost all the time with Bluetooth and a mix of wifi and 5g use making the battery not the greatest I've used compared to other 5g phones.
This phone is a perfect fit for my mom due to lower price but one of the best cameras. The only bummer is 128gb of storage
In India it's launched on the price of 550 usd and now i brought it for 315usd almost for 26000 RS 🥳
Hi I'm from Jamaica and last year I had switched from Samsung note 10 plus to this mobster mini beast pixel 6a so awesome 👍😎 I'm from Jamaica and in my country pixel 6a is for $85,000
Awesome! I'm glad you enjoy it and wow that's expensive! Thanks for watching! 😁
I have a pixel 6 and I'm not overly impressed with that . I took a look at a pixel 6a as I wanted a smaller phone, but I thought no! Actually prefer my 4a ( on first impressions)
I bought a Galaxy s21 fe 256/8gb Form under 500 Euro last month. I am realy Happy that I bought it and Not one of the Pixels
At this point I just want a phone that works
had to double check the subscriber count
We'll be getting this at 350USD in India on sale
🔥🔥🔥🔥 beautiful phone
Apple just upped their refresh rate like 2 years ago. The display is fine
Pity that google's repair service is practically nonexistent in India. Instant dealbreaker right there, no matter how good the phone is.
U clearly didn't inow google partnered with third party services for tht in India 😏
number of service centre are still very low and not to mention really far
theres no original charger available on any shopping app hard to find screen protector cover and charging takes 2hrs also learned about connectivity issued for some reason in india .. i almost bought it yesterday but due to this i am backing off here
@@rishabhgautam9 thank YOU, from past few days I am going back and forth between 6A and A53 samsung, but this made me clear up my mind, yes i will be not getting the best ultimate Google first hand experience but the cons we're here facing in India are just too much to cope up with. Ultimately samsung is not a bad choice either.
@@siaaa8871 thanks i did a LOOOOT of research ... the google user interface was tempting me a lot , but after digging deep from the people who bought it and reddit ....... even if i compromise on original charger ................. me not getting signals in any emergency signal / mobile data to message and ... 2 hrs to charge (and i own a oneplus its charge fast like crazyy) ... i ditched it ..................... if someone priority is camera maybe they can buy but as a student well hardd ........ hey also if you can hold up a bit like till 24 oct , oneplus nord 3 is going to be launched !
What about heating issue??
Hamilton Ontario in the house!
AYYYYY!!! Nice seeing a local! Thanks for watching! 😁
S21 fe or pixel 6a?
It's a really nice device with a lot of nice features but I went back to my trusty Samsung A10e after a week. I have a powerful desktop PC, I don't need to carry one in my pocket. I just need a basic, simple to use phone.
is the google text the same as on android auto? cause i used it with my sony xperia 5ii in a car and i must say it doesnt recognize sentences well enough. while it should in a freaking car
so I bought a 6 pro for $535 shipped. I think I did ok.
Excellent content. How do you find camera of pixel 6a against Samsung S22 ? After using pixel cams for years, I found camera outputs of my Samsung S22 to be underwhelming
Thank you so much! I have a dedicated camera comparison video of the Pixel 6 and the S22 on my channel that goes in depth about the cameras! In my upcoming Pixel 6 vs 6a comparison, I actually discovered the camera processing and detail to be 95% of the time identical despite the different sensors! Crazy right! So yes, the Pixel 6a cameras are better than the S22 in my opinion, minus the lack of a telephoto camera! Thanks for watching! 😁
You seemed to be a bit biased towards the pixel.
Tight shorts AND meteor thighs? nah, that plastic back would be so melted
