Sleek and unique design,Great for photos,Years of software support
Only 60Hz refresh rate,No wireless charging,Limited storage options
With the Pixel 6a, Google faces a hard task making one of the best-value Android phones even better. The Pixel 6 is now available discounted or refurbished, so the main Pixel phones to consider include the Pixel 7, an excellent option for most people, or...
Flagship performance in many ways, Excellent value for money, Computational photography features, Compact smartphone
Missing more advanced features of the 6/6PRO, Selfie camera only 8MP, Pixel 6 not much more money
The Google Pixel 6A offers a great dual-camera system with a very good ultra-wide camera, as well as a good to very good wide-angle camera. And, whilst it may not match the flagship smartphones such as the Pixel 6 / Pixel 6 Pro, it comes very close to the...

brilliant camera, good smaller screen, top performance, good battery life, recycled aluminium, five years of security updates, Android 12, smart software features, competitively priced

Android runs at its best on Pixel,Decent, easy-to-use cameras arrangement,Battery life is impressive despite smallish capacity,If you don't want a massive phone this is a solid option,
Only a 60Hz refresh rate display, Screen feels small (to me anyway), Pixel 6 isn't much more cash and a more logical buy for most, Proximity to Pixel 7 series reveal in October feels mistimed,
The Google Pixel 6a is a model example of a small-screen Android phone -and I think its size is the key selling point. However, the older Pixel 6 from 2021 doesn't really cost much more and will suit a wider audience really. Still, if you're looking for a...

Abstract: We found it hard to review the Google Pixel 6a. Normally, cheap alternatives to flagship phones are interesting, thanks to their competitive price points and feature sets - but one major and one minor issue makes the new phone hard to recommend.Let's star...
