    I really like this phone. I'm a big fan of Google products and this phone is perfect for me. It's very fast for what it is with almost the same components as the pixel 5. Only $200 cheaper. It's not super high end but it's a perfect budget phone.

    Such a great value purchase for a new 5G Android phone. Google did a great job with the finish and overall performance of this phone. 5G speeds on AT&T are really good (depends on your city coverage). Loving the phone and experience so far.

    I purchased this phone for my mother and so far it works perfectly! There was a little mishap involving the software update but it's easily resolved. The camera is powerful, it has lightning quick response and excellent battery life.

    Excellent 5g model for an affordable price. Got this to replace my Pixel 2 but didn't want to pay the price for a Pixel 5. The 4a with 5g model is arguably better than the Pixel 4 and comparable to the Pixel 5 without breaking the bank.

    Worth the Money and More

    My LG G6 was slowly dying and I thought it was time for an upgrade. I did not want to do monthly payments with my provider, so I wanted the best value for my money. I was torn between the s20 fe, OnePlus 7t, and this phone. I'm pleased I chose this phone. The transfer was easy from my G6 to this phone. Build quality is solid, although I miss the glass back of my G6. I also love having the latest version of Android (guaranteed updates for three years). It even has a headphone jack and comes with a charger at the $499 price point. A few cons compared to the devices. The screen is 1080p and doesn't have a screen refresh at 120hz like OnePlus. But if you're looking for a phone that does what it's supposed to and like the Android ecosystem, look no further. You don't have to break the bank to have a great phone.

    Overall feel is good. It has some minor quirks which is more related to android 11 than the phone itself. Battery life is excellent. Screen is very decent. Low usage game play is just fine. Camera quality is good, not the best, but good.

    Upgraded from a 3a XL and the CPU is noticeable. Honestly between the pixel 5 and this phone, the price doesn't justify the 5's cost. Headphone jack is a must Now Google, give us micro SD card slots.....

    Love this phone, the battery lasts all day. I can let my kids play on it for hours and it still keeps going. I have a lot of apps on it as well, but it hasn't slowed down yet. 5/5 if I might say.

    My third Google phone. Very pleased, reasonably priced and does everything I need. I don't get and can't justify a $1000 phone, so this hits a sweet spot .....and to boot has a top notch camera.

    This is the first and only Google Pixel phone that I have owned, so I was a bit reluctant when I made this purchase. However after using the phone for a few months I absolutely love it. The camera quality is phenomenal and the astrophotography setting allows you to take spectacular pictures of the stars. The phone lacks face unlock, but the fingerprint reader on the back of the phone works better than any phone that I've owned. The display is great and 5G connection speeds are awesome. If you're in the market for an Android phone, just buy this one.

    Great phone. Good reception for voice and data - The unlocked version works with Verizon's low band 5G network, but there's not much coverage outside of big cities. Great battery life great camera also

    Excellent for the price. The UI is so smooth and the battery runs through the day. Good for people who don't bother about gaming on phone. Same functionality as pixel5 but 200 less, I will take it !

    By far the best, fastest, longest battery life phone I've ever owned. The camera is so much more advanced than the Pixel 3a XL. My only gripe is that it's not waterproof, come on google it's 2021..

    Upgraded from a Google pixel 2 and I love this new phone. definitely has a great camera and you get a larger screen which is a plus. Only thing is that I was told that it's not water resistant.
