Customer Ratings & Reviews

So far, I love the deal I got on this phone. They have great deals if you are interested in getting the Google pixel 6a. I am still getting acclimated to the phones features. So far it has been fun to play with. The zoom is not the best.

Pixels have all been great phones for me and my family. Got this one for my son when his Pixel 3 XL bit the dust. By far the best android experience; it is as close to the always-works-ness of Apple as you can get without buying into the Apple ecosystem.

Haven't played with it too much but for the time that I did, I didn't have any issues. Pretty fast! I like that it's on the smaller side so the one handed capability is easy.

Pros: Optimized well, Good enough for daily use. OLED screen is fine. Support dual sim (by eSim). Cons: Volume is low. Touch screen doesn't respond well on all corners. Battery life feels short compared to my old Moto G Power.

For the money with free earbuds this is a great buy. The main downsides are learning a new OS and "helpful" tips and ads constantly interrupting. I am unsure if I want to add another glass shield as sometimes it takes a few tries to connect using touch.

Kept getting super hot on Whatsapp video calls, others said give it some time initially to adapt but the issue didn't disappear in 14 days (Best Buy return window) thus had to return

I've owned several Google phones in my life,but nothing since the Nexus 6 phone, which was a top of line offering when it came out 8 years ago. I was anxious to see what these newest Pixel phones were compared to the Nexus, so I was kind of surprised to see how "budget" this latest offering was from Google. I like the smaller size of 6.1 inches, after owning so many XL sized phones, and I also current own a Samsung s22 Ultra, so this guy felt nice and compact compared to that and a few others I have had recently. It was kind of disappointing not to see wireless charging and such a low (60hz) refresh rate on a phone in 2022, but, considering this phone is marketed as a "budget" model, I guess you have to sacrifice some things to keep the price in check.It also does not have fast charge, so it takes awhile to charge this guy up. the battery didnt really last all day for me, in heavy use, so keep that in mind. Fortunately it still has the excellent Pixel camera that has been a trademark of the recent Google phones, although I am not a fan of the weird camera "bump" that spans across the back of the phone. The under screen finger print sensor works ok, but there is no face unlock, so get used to using your fingerprint to unlock this phone, which, in my testing didnt work quickly every single time.Plus, I found it strange that Google decided to place the power button ABOVE the volume rocker; every phone I have ever owned had the power button below the volume rocker. If you care about long term software support, google will give you 4 years of updates, so this thing will be current for a long time, but not sure how the all plastic body of this phone will last in the long run. I keep it in a case, and will put a screen protector on it, so that should help. All told its a decent, budget phone, and if you are looking to keep things under 500 dollars for a new phone, this fits the bill well; although the step up model Pixel 6 has been on sale several time recently for around the same price, so if you want some additional features in the same price range, you might want to look at that one too. You wont be disappointed either way!

My experience with pixel 6a has been good, I like how smoothly Android 13 runs, the only thing I don't like is the battery life, which lasts less and less using normal use, I do recommend it, good equipment for price.

First of all, it does not come with ANY Power Plug! Very rude and cheap. I do not understand. Night one, unable to charge my new phone. Wow! Second, the Search Bar cannot be moved. You can't add a clock to the main screen... The good is, so far, it's fast... But for how long?

My son just bought this phone, so we've only had it a few days. So far, he is very pleased with his purchase and the phone's capabilities. It is a little different than his Android, but nothing that he can't figure out and adapt to. :-)

Great phone for pure Google Android experience. Battery life was subpar and no wireless charging is a negative.

Whe looking for a new phone i stopped by the store to ask about features and price. I felt like the salesperson talked to me into this phone. After proceeding with transferring all my information over it dawns on me I do not have a screen protector or a case neither of which Best buy had in stock. The computer said that they had some in stock but not a single associate could find them. This is a terrible phone The screen is already cracked there's problems with the camera and I feel like I spent a lot of money on something that I already need to replace.

Happy with phone although getting back to home screen can take a few tries The keyboard when texting blocks the text view so you can't correct text until you exit keyboard...leads to word salad sometimes

A good phone for people on a budget. I'm not the type of person that wants to spend over 1000 dollars on a new phone, 500 is still a lot but an easier pill to swallow. Phone performance is good enough.

I plan on returning this phone today. I gave it as much time as possible (keeping within the two week window for return) and I am totally unsatisfied with this phone. I have had Galaxys in the past and never had this much trouble before. The screen flashes on/off while calling, my Contacts did not transfer fully and the screen is very temperamental. My wife said she had a much earlier version of the Pixel and loved it. She agrees this is nowhere near as good as the older model.

Faulty screen. Shattered beyond use within 4 months of purchase while being used at my desk. Tiny shards of glass now adorn my workspace like glitter - even when I think it's clean, there's a little stab from another piece just to remind me how horrible a purchase this was. After further investigation, the Pixel 6 line has had faulty screens since it launched. DO NOT BUY.

Very happy with this phone. Last time I upgraded from one android phone to another had to use wifi and the process was a little cumbersome. This time with the pixel transfer from the old phone to the new one, it was a snap.

Had to return it it overheated almost to the point where you couldn't hold it. Probably just a bad phone I bought

Very easy to transfer old data from original phone to new phone. The interface is very intuitive. Screen Unlock is a little buggy with the touch sensitivity. Usually I have to input a code instead of the touch unlock.

Not very good phone , too much sensitive to touch, while swiping through list unnecessarily item gets selected , camera is not worth, battery backup is ok
