Google Pixel 6a 5G (6GB RAM, 128GB, Sage) - Brand New review
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.- 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
This app could be killing your Pixel phone’s battery life
The Google Pixel 6a is the cheapest and smallest of the Pixel 6 lineup. Though the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro came out in 2021, Google releases a budget-friendly version of its Pixel lineup midway through the product cycle.

With the Pixel 6a, you have the same Pixel design as the mainline Pixel series, Google’s Tensor chipset, great cameras, and everything comes in a small and lightweight body. With the main Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro coming in at 6.4 and 6.7 inches, the smaller 6.1-inch size of the Pixel 6a is a welcome addition for those who don’t like larger phones. So, just how good is the Pixel 6a? Let’s find out. If you’ve seen the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro, the Pixel 6a’s aesthetics will be immediately familiar. The front of the phone has a large display with a centered hole-punch cutout for the selfie camera. The back sports a two-tone design separated by Google’s iconic camera bar towar...- Compact, lightweight design
