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

The design of the Pixel 6a can turn heads and this is a 6.1-inch-screened phone that fits the hand well.

Excellent value, Cool design, Fast performance, Recorder app

Only two cameras, Too small for some

The most affordable Pixel. The small, 6.1-inch Google Pixel 6a is very fast and offers perhaps the best cameras in the smartphone mid-range. In addition, it scores with a bright AMOLED display, a good battery life, and a long period of updates.

bright AMOLED display, always-on display, fast SoC, IP67 certification, USB-C 3.1 Gen 1, powerful dual camera, long update period

only 60 Hz, maximum of 128 GB storage, no wireless charging, charger not included, maximum charging at 18 watts

The 6A’s Tensor chipset makes all the difference in this midrange phone

Flagship-class processor and performance, Good camera, Very good battery life

Standard refresh rate screen, Fingerprint sensor is still kind of slow

Apple has given select media outlets and YouTubers access to the new iPhone 14 ahead of when it begins arriving in customers' hands on Friday, September 16. There are two models of the ‌iPhone‌ 14, the standard 6.1-inch ‌iPhone‌ 14 and the larger 6.7-inch ‌iPhone‌ 14 Plus.

The Google Pixel 6a has exceeded expectations and we’re happy to report that after two years, the ‘fucc’ is well and truly back.

Google is on a roll. After years of good but not great phones, the Pixel 6a is another excellent model bringing the Android-maker’s magic down to a more affordable price. It uses the same recipe that makes Apple’s iPhone SE so good: a mid-range phone with the company’s top chip.

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

Cons: fairly slow charging, no optical zoom, no macro photo mode, no face unlock option, screen only 60Hz.
