Google's Pixel 6A Is Smart and Powerful, but the Camera Lags

This affordable midrange phone checks off all the boxes but no longer has a sizable lead with its camera and software support.
Pros:
  • AMOLED screen that actually gets bright enough to see in direct sunlight. Great performance. Slick and smart software. Nice build, compact size. IP67 water resistant. Reliable fingerprint scanner. Good cameras. 5 years of security updates. Day-long battery life.
Cons:
  • Older camera hardware shows its age. Screen only refreshes at 60 Hz, which is below par for this price range. No wireless charging. Promise of three OS upgrades is good, but not the best. No headphone jack. No charger in the box.

Google Pixel 6a (128GB, Sage) - Pristine review

Built in much the same style as the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro, the Pixel 6a is part of what we expect in a mid-range Pixel, and yet not all the way there. It's a good phone, but not a great mid-range Pixel, and misses out on aspects previous Pixel a generations have clearly delivered on.
Pros:
  • A nice smaller style for a Pixel which is now a big phone, Feels good in the hands, Decent performance, A solid camera for a mid-range phone, Water resistance
Cons:
  • Main camera isn't the Pixel 6 camera, but the Pixel 5 camera, Battery won't likely hit beyond a day, No wireless charging
