    A good upgrade over the 6a

    It's a decent upgrade over my 6a. The 120hz display, more premium build quality and wireless charging are the big upgrades from my perspective. But it's an incremental improvement at the end of the day so it's not night and day. If your 6a is treating you well, there is no hurry to upgrade.

    Phone is a noticable upgrade over my pixel 6a in the viewing screen and camera. I also appreciate the wireless charging. I may have not upgraded had it not been for the promotional $100 credit I got for my 6a on top of the best buy $100 credit. Battery seems to last about as long as my 6a.

    This model has a few different features from the last Pixel I had but is really easy to figure out. Transferring of information from one phone to the other was quick and easy as well. Buying an unlocked phone from Best Buy is the only way I get new phones now.

    This is my 2nd Google phone, and I really like them. They are a great product for way less money. Nice features and go well w my Google TV. One iPhone was enough for me. It was fine, just expensive and kinda dumb. This phone is pretty, as well.

    It was a decent phone for the price I paid for it. I have since transferred it to a family member who seems to love it. I'm pleased that she enjoys using it. She was originally a Samsung phone user but seems happy moving to a Pixel device. If you really want to wet your feet in the Google ecosphere doing so in a A series phone to decide if you will like it without having to spend huge amounts of money first.
