    Purchased my Pixel 4a unlocked in store yesterday, customer service was excellent. Rep was very helpful and knowledgeable. I love the phone, great specs, great battery, and awesome software for the price.

    Creaky Back

    The phone itself is nice and compact. I came from the Pixel 3a XL so the software experience is the same. I just wanted something smaller which this definitely is. The problem I experienced, and others have as well, is that the phone started to creak when lightly pressing on the back, and it was pretty loud. This happened after only a few days of use with no drops or rough handling. I was going to exchange it but the only phone they had in the store was an open box. Sure enough, that phone also had the creaking. My Pixel 3a XL had no creaking and was still working great so I just went back to that. Quite disappointing.

    It is a nice Android phone. I wish it had a notification light so that I can tell something came in without touching phone and also if it's changing or not.

    Great picture, fast speed. Scrolling is a bit too fast at times and I go by what I need as a result. Would love if the phone had a back button clearly visible instead of just swiping. Spam screening is a nice feature.

    I don't like carrying $1k on me. This is a perfect phone that meets all your needs at such an aggressive low price. No bloatware. Such a clean interface. I really love it. Oh, and surprisingly loud speakers.

    I absolutely love my new pixel 4a. I was concerned because it was alot cheaper then most flagship phones but it's every bit and better then I expected. Most likely I'll buy google phones from here on out.

    Great camera and good quality phone comparable to the previous models. I'm not impressed with the supposed longer battery life and occasional glitches.

    Love this new little phone. It takes unbelievable photos, had a great battery life and I'm still discovering new features. There is a bit of a learning curve, at least for me, but it's well worth it.

    Pixel 4a is a low cost alternative smart phone

    I think this is a case of you get what you pay for. I owned a Pixel 2XL for a couple of years and was very satisfied. It finally had a couple of issues that Google repaired but it began to be unreliable. I wasn't about to spend $1000 on a new phone (non apple user) so I found the 4a at a value price. It is a fine phone for me, as it allows me to text, use some apps and takes nice photos. However, the battery is less than adequate, runs down in less then a day. At just over $200 it was a good buy and if I have to upgrade after a year, it won't hurt as much as if I would have spent hundreds more.

    Only $350 gets you the one of the best phones on the market. The 4a features a gorgeous full-screen display an incredible, AI-powered camera, and silky-smooth zippiness you just can't beat for the price.

    pretty sleek, fast response, no back button, you have to swipe down so that's cool. My old phone was slow at responding to text so this is definitely a step up. I recommend.

    I haven't had this phone too long but so far I love it. The camera is crisp and clear. The apps open quickly. The phone itself is very lightweight. I couldn't have made a better choice than this phone.

    I love this phone. Love it. I upgraded from a J7 which was clunky and not this phone. I quit buying expensive phones yrs ago and went way too cheap on the j7, but this Google Pixel 4a is great!

    Good product: Would buy again: We had a challenge with initial set up, but we finally got the phone set up correctly. It has been functioning correctly for a month and a half. So far so good.

    Great Phone, Terrible Speaker

    I love pixel phones, but this phone has a low max volume, i can hear my pixel 3a in my pocket, but not at all with this 4a. I really liked the phone otherwise, the new processor is 8nm which is a giant leap from the pixel 3a 10nm, plus it has twice the storage and faster memory. It's a great phone but WHY do they put such an inferior speaker in a phone where hearing it is everything.
