What do you guys think of the Pixel 7A? Also, if you enjoyed the video feel free to like and subscribe!
Any chance we'll get a comparison between the 7A and the Galaxy A54 for Best Midrange?
@@OddOneOut665 Pixel 7A all the way.. Unless you live in a country where the Pixel is insanely expensive.
The protection is gorilla glass 3 just like the 6a which is big letdown for me considering the price. My 6a screen broke just after 3 days after i bought it...and it was just a minor fall. And there is no service centre here in India😭
@@MatthewMoniz Really? All things considered too, like with what the Galaxy A54 offers ($50 less, 120hz RR, microSD, 5000mAh)?
Not siding with the Galaxy (been TeamPixel since the Kinda Blue 2, currently on the Sage 6A), just wanted to point those out. ;)
I am using Google Pixel 6a device since last 5 months. And I am not able to make direct vedio call via carrier network , I want to directly make a vedio call to my friend, for which I have to use Google's app like Google meet or Google duo for which we have to provided with high speed internet connection. In India internet speed is not so good in rural areas. This is not a user friendly behaviour by Google. It's a monopoly. We are using Google product itself. So atleast Google can give a access to direct vedio call. So that we can call using carrier network like JIO Vi Airtel. The second thing is pixel get too much heated during normal UA-cam suffering and vedio calling via WhatsApp, from both back and front, that it start giving you warning on temperature increase of your handset. That is pathetic. These problem are as it is after many updates rolled out by Google. I had sent my complaint to Google itself till now, that query is in progress..... And Google had locked my comment from community, so no other users can relate to my problem. Please its a heartful request to everyone please don't buy new Google Pixel devices, go for any other phn ....
I'm glad that I bought my new 6A a couple of days ago for $199......
Damn for $199 its a no brainer
Where the heck did you get one for 199 details please!!!
@@ryanpearson7227 you can get them second hand grade a condition for under 250.
I paid £210 from ebay new and sealed about 2 months ago
I got mine on sale for $299 a month ago too, a white one. I love it but am kinda pissed 7a has 8GB of RAM and is in orange which is my favorite color. I don't know what to do. Lol
I always admired the look of the Pixel 7 series. That metal strap in the back is both functional and cosmetic, and for me it works.
Google has really nailed it with pricing imo. The 6A is a great value phone that undercuts even the iPhone SE in terms of pricing and is in many ways better than the SE. The 7A justifies its higher price with the better internals and display. The 7 starts to get into diminishing returns territory, but is still significantly cheaper than other flagships. The value proposition on these phones is just better than its competitors.
Iphone se is just a overpriced shit
Rather than launching 7A they can just permanent cut the price of pixel 7 to 499 thats better
Display? Don't both 6a and 7a use the same basic OLED technology? Only the Pro models may have better display.
@@CityChristina it's 90hz on 7a vs 60 on 6A. My current phone only has a 60hz display. So 90 is good enough for me
@@CityChristinathe 6a display is also a tad brighter in manual brightness mode . Conflicting results on the 6a peak brightness, some state around just over 800 nits , some state 1,100 nits
It appears that the Sony IMX362 sensor continues to perform exceptionally well from the Pixel 2 to the Pixel 6a.✌
Good boi
Hmm, there has been a lot of complaints that the selfie camera in 6 and 7 are far worse than Pixel 3 and 4 now. Google it, they're more grainy now.
Excited for 7A! I will be switching from Apple for the first time
Let me know how that goes!
I hope you share ur thoughts 💭

Great ❤
Btw just see if you want to go for 7a or 7
The 7 is superior to 7a in every way, and it's cheaper/same price.
I too bought the 7 a few days back, you're gonna get almost same experience with either but for the same price 7 is better, unless you can get 7a for consideribly cheaper
Thank you for the review. I always love watching them. I will say I felt like the picture and camera quality looked better on the A54. I've never used anything but Samsung since I left my Blackberry days so I can't make a reasonable judgement. Thanks again.
I had to come and check out your video! Great video. I think they should have kept the pricing more affordable.
As always great video and analysis. Curious about the google store discounts they will offer
6A so far has been an amazing phone.
Few drawbacks coming from huawei p30:
Network strength - terrible. I couldnt send a small video from a shopping mall for 60 minutes. People sometime hear some strange noises while talking to me.
Main screen of the phone has a small date numbers which cannot be removed from the screen.
Apps become unresponsive at times.
Only 1 app open- it just freezes and you can just close it and reopen in order to work.
Battery is average. A day of use is almost certain but for example p30 had me for 2 days with no problems.
I prefer the 6a design! More unique.
i just found you! love your style... its a very thorough review but not boring ✌️ uve got a new sub!
Thanks sir for your quick in-depth review video 📸
Thank u for this comparison review, it really helps!
No problem! Thanks for watching!
I was gonna buy 7a but Now after seeing the reviews I will rather stick to my 3a. The best phone I have ever had still going strong after 4 years. Fast And reliable fingerprint reader, great camera, unlimited google photo storage and battery that can still last one day and fully charges in less than one hour. I am afraid I would regret ditching it for a new one....
how were the reviews I got a 4a (still going strong) and thinking of upgrading for the bigger but bearly saw the phone was out what was the catch with the 7a ?
@@davnez05 I mean if you really wanted to upgrade from the 4A I would say do it I would assume the 4A is at least having a few minor issues now that it's some years old now
I have the 6A and I honestly love it!
Been using the Pixel 6 since launch i love this device can't wait to see the Pixel 8
I massively cracked the screen of my S21 and was looking for a replacement that was a bit more affordable. I think this might be the one! Great review. As always
my s21 charging port is broken so im looking at this too
I think it is much cheaper to fix the issues and keep S21. I love Pixels bit I think Samsung has some sweet unique /customized features.
@@scolptur9365 fixing an old phone It's never a smart idea over getting a new one
@@ki11atj49 The S21 isn't old, it'd be much more cost effective to replace the screen and keep using it for a few more years. Otherwise you're just throwing a perfectly fine, repairable phone into the landfill.
go for pixel 7
Good review, efficient and cover the main points, now i understandi do not need to spend 150€ for the metal strip at the back; thanks
Hi, Mattew,
tell me, what is the vibration motor in pixel 7a?
If you compare it with Pixel 7, is it better or worse?
thanks
I think the wireless charging and 90hrtz refresh is a reason to upgrade people if you have a 6a just get a 7a its actually a noticible difference in performance and astetics.
to be honest camera of 6a is better than 7a ( i think )
Really I'm thinking of exchanging my 6a to 7a don't know it's worth
@@A1Ch3353 yeah cause 6a has more optimized camera sensor than pixel 7a new sensor
its like camera of 6a -> 20/20
and 7a 19/20
The 6a produces the best images I have ever seen on a mobile phone.
Maybe after some ota updates it gets better because hardware is better than 6a anyway
@@medad5716 yeah it's got most optimized lens
I got the 6A at the end of last year, I may never go back to another brand I fell in love with it. I'm wondering if I should get the most out of my 6A and wait for the 8A or say screw it and get the 7A.
I'm the same boat lol. I got a white 6a for $299 on sale a month ago and love it. But I'm pissed the 7a has 8GB of RAM, wireless charging, 64MP camera, etc. AND it's in orange which is my favorite color! Grr. Lol
Sameeee! I got my 6a back in Jan 2023 for $399. Also wondered if I should trade in my 6a for the 7a because of the reasons @CityChristina listed, plus long exposure. After watching this video, not so much. Also, the weight of 7a. To me, 6a is already heavy (even without my phone case), and yet the 7a weighs almost 20g more 😂
@@azukimochipan yeah I'm in the exact same situation what to do
Hi mate! Awesome video as always, thank you. I’ve been using the iPhone for over 10 years now, currently I’m using the iPhone 14 Pro Max. Lately I’ve felt no need of a phone that expensive, especially when I only use it for social media, calls, emails and some light gaming like clash of clans and Pokémon go. Is the pixel 7a the way to go for me or should I look at something else? I really don’t need a expensive phone, just fast and good camera. All the best.
pixel is for you.
I went with the a series for the first time with the 6a. I haven't upgraded yet, I have been trying to stay one release behind. Especially with Google. Allot of awesome sales. I got my 6a for 300$ and that's an awesome price. It feels the same pretty much as phones that are easy more expensive. If you don't do gaming, it's kinda crazy not to go with.
was that USD 300 or Canadian 300?
6a brand new cost 393 USD in my country (24-2-6)🤦
There's a lot of new features, from the 6a to 7a, 4k recording on front facing camera, face unlock, camera upgrades all around, wireless charging, better chip, 90 hertz refresh rate. It's just a better phone all around, and that's allot of difference's. I forgot it also has 8 gigs of ram instead of 6.
That's not all. My main issue was call disconnection regularly. Initially i thought that it was only my unit but later double confirmed it with other 6a owners in my locality and online.
@@m0dg0d16 I'm curious, from what country are you from? I'm planning to buy a 6a in my country but Google doesn't sell it here so I have to buy it in the gray market.
@@codetrain020 I'm from India, got pixel 6a from a shopping site.
@@m0dg0d16 let us know if the call quality reception improves with pixel 7a. Want to buy 8 later this year but heard a lot of complaints for call drop reception.
@@Electrobuzz17 Sure buddy
Interesting, one have to be careful with these reviews, I appreciate your efforts in bringing us an honest review, but watching image results via UA-cam video doesn't do justice, much better to try out the phone yourself. I had both the 7 and the 6A at home with me, and the selfie camera from the 6A was horrible. But on this video the 6A selfie sample looked just fine, but let me tell you it is not. So, here is my take on all these 3 models, the 6A was more friendly, easier to hold, more comfortable to use, more pocketable and easier to get along with. But because of the inferior camera, lack of wireless charging, 60HZ refresh rate, it didn't make sense to me, and for only $100 more I was able to get the 7. Now comes the 7A, which could had been the perfect 7, but the price messed it up. But the 7A has everything the 6A was missing and still smaller then the 7, it just needed to be $400. At $500 for the 7A, I would still get the 7 instead. I hope the 7A cameras are as good as the 7, because the 6A selfie camera left a lot to be desired.
My 3A totally bricked itself last night while I wasn't using it... Makes me wonder if it was intentional with the launch of the 7A LOL 😑If so, it worked! Thanks for the helpful video comparison while I rush to figure out if I should upgrade to the 7, 7A, or if saving some $$$ on the 6A will still be a solid choice 🙌
I buy 6a to company to my 3a :) And they are both great devices. 6a have 329 euro in Deutschland instead of 499 in 7a (but he has headphones as a gift).. And for this price 6a is more affordable.. Well, if I were buying now, I would buy a pixel 7. Its more premium with better main camera, glass back and quicker wireless charge. And Pixel 7 only 50 euros more expensive (in Europe).. The choice is yours!
@@markprosto420 Thanks for the feedback! 🌟 I bought a refurbished (like new) 6a for $280 USD, should be here in a few days. Almost half the price of the 7a! I'm still annoyed my 3a gave up on me out of nowhere 😭but I'm excited to try out my new phone. I'm glad to hear you like the 6a!
@@mariahhouser1268 soo how's bit been? I'm thinking of buying the 6a over the 7a since it's half the price
@@arushsharma8383 So far, so good! Despite my 3a bricking myself, it was super easy to get my 6a set up and restore the things I thought were lost (such as my notes), turns out they were all linked through my Google account lol So that really came in hand. 🙌🏼
I ordered my phone 2nd hand through Back Market, which I highly recommend! I paid $30 to have it expedited, but then FedEx temporarily mis-sorted it and so it was delayed a handful of days. 🥴 Once it made its way safely to me, I kindly reached out to Back Market and they refunded the $30 fee easy-peazy! 🎉 You also have like 90 days to return it for free for ANY reason, and like a 1 year warranty if there's any issues with the phone.
My only gripe with the phone itself is the camera, particularly the front facing one. Looking at the screen pre-photo everything looks nice, but once the photo clicks & saves, it automatically boosts the contrast way too much, which is really weird. There's no way to get around this as far as I know. As I have naturally light blonde hair & fair skin, this results in a darker, greasy look that's unflattering. 😅 But using alternative camera apps on the phone works like normal, so the rare occasions I want to take a selfie I just use a 3rd party app instead lol
Why doesn't anyone mention the limited 128gigs of storage space on these phones? It drives me crazy! It's all just praise, for the most part. 128gigs is simply not enough in 2023! I don't care what the price is. Android system updates and patches, file sizes and pictures plus apps etc, we need 256 as an option. If that was an option I'd buy. But 128gigs is not enough for me if I'm keeping the phone for 2 years. Why no one mentions this just baffles me.
Thats enough for most people.
Ive managed with 32GB for the last few years
Than the phone is not for u
Use cloud storage bro, cheaper, easier to manage, share
I struggle to fill 90gbs even though I take atleast 2mins of 4K60 everyday, assuming the average user has the same pattern
samsung and motorola with micro sd cards all day.
90 Hz, Wireless charging, Face Unlock. Definitely worth the extra $50 for the 7a... Not to mention more RAM and bigger cameras
Here in India, 6a costs 300 usd while 7a $528 💀
which wallpaper on pix 6a set? sorry for my english
does the 6a feel smaller ? and general small?
I remember the a lineup was only $399 those were the times, like the legendary 4a
For me its really important that the phone can be used easy with one hand (so I usually go for smaller size). Should I get Google Pixel 6A for 300 EUR or Pixel 7a for 550 EUR ?? I hear some people say that the 7a is visibly larger and the 6a is better for one hand use but both are 6.1 inch ???
The few advantages that the Pixel 7a has over the 6a aren't worth the 250 euros at all. Either you wait until the 7a is significantly cheaper, or you simply get the 6a. Because for 300 euros this is a good, fast smartphone and offers a much better price-performance ratio compared to the Pixel 7a at the moment. Coming from the Pixel 3a, the Pixel 6a grew about a millimeter in each dimension. It may not sound like much, but you can clearly feel it. It's borderline but still acceptable to me. Although the Pixel 7a has the same screen size as the 6a, it's again a millimeter wider than its predecessor. And don't forget that the Pixel 7a is heavier at 193 grams than the 6a at 178. That doesn't sound like much either, but you can already feel that.
even if the phone is big, if it is light, it can be used with one hand.
I like the 6A. But used Pixel 2.
What y'all thoughts about my decision to switch to pixel 6a from samsung s21 is it good?
Are the speakers as bad on 7a as they are on the 7 pro?
thank you! I'll wait for the 8a :)
Google's condition is same like Samsung, when S21 fe available at 350 who will purchase A54 at 450? Same here when pixel 7 is available at 450 who will purchase 7A at 500?
Glad I picked 7 last week
I dont know where you live, but a 7 is 547€ euro and the Pixel 7a 509 + Headphones
dos the 7a support esim ?
I know there some other brands with more powerful mid range phones but I would take this 7a without thinking it twice.
I usually don't upgrade my a-series pixels until Google does their big yearly(ish) offer. Normally the trade-in for the latest a-series is insultingly low, like $100 in perfect condition. But once in a while they offer a much larger trade-in value along with a discount on the new a. Instead of $400 to upgrade through Google, it goes down to $150-$200. If you're a pixel owner, I would highly suggest waiting for those times of year to upgrade. It's clear that Google wants to push upgrade sales, and you definitely want to take advantage instead of just buying new when they come out.
I bought the 6a for 300€. I couldn't resist at that price point.
When?
@@gandlaf This month. (In Greece)
Amazing phone and great value. You also get the pixel buds A for free when you pre-order.
🤔wanna know if 7a could share the same case of 6a?
Should we wait as like pixel 6a for price drop
Eh ill stick with my 6a. Ill upgrade to the 8a next year. The trade in on the 7a is pretty bad. Was going to upgrade to it if the trade in value was good. I got like 300-350 off when I traded my pixel 4 for the 6a last year. Its only like 150 if I traded in my 6a for the 7a.
The wireless charging and the 90hz is pretty nice though.
Just keep checking I have a feeling the trade-in deals with get lots better within weeks
Recent rumour says that 7a will be the last A series phone. So no 8a
@@lcm0112 That's my concern too.
what about heating issues??
How long does it take to fully charge the battery? The fact that 18 wt is disappointing
Around 1 hours 50 mins, which imo, is a lottttt
You can use the 6a screen protector on the 7a too. ')
Video recording stabilization. Is the pixel 6a better in this regard? It almost looked like it from the short sample video?
Looks slightly better but not by much
I wish the 7a was smaller!
I wish it was bigger
@@oo0024 No, it's perfect as it is. Get a damn tablet.
No that can't do that. They need to put the worse binned CPUs in the a series phones. That means they are not as power efficient and need big batteries to have decent battery life.
Link of your pixel 7A wallpaper?
Thanks matt!!
You're welcome Eric! Thanks for watching
Which one heats up less?
Hello. Nowhere is there a comparison of cameras 7a and 6 ....
thank you, for that compasion!
Overall, the camera on the 6a looks better to me. Not just your photos, but my own experience. 90hz and wireless charging on the 6a would be nice though.
The 7a is an L imo. They should just have reduced the 7's price to $499 and called it a day (the 7 Pro is now $799 lol). The screen bezels look way nicer on the 7 and the faster wired and wireless charging is better. I think the 7A will be on sale for 50 or 100 off very very soon
Isn't the battery on the 7 dog shit?
@@porkpie8667 they're equally dog shit
Can you please make video on S21fe vs Pixel 7a
Hey Google that 5a to 6a $100 transfer deal was pretty cool. Wanna do that again?

iphone but pricey

I am still happy with my Pixel 6a that I bought in late November 2022 for 459 Euro. The only thing that saddens me is the significantly lower quality of the pictures compared to my previous Pixel 3.
I was a long time Pixel 3 XL user and never again did Google release a better phone in terms of display quality/pixel density and camera quality.
How is the performance after some time? Does it lag when opening many apps? On my Samsung a52 i have to wait for a moment when opening some apps and switching between them. And also the battery life, do you get through one day comfortably?
I have a 3a right now and I'm stuck on whether I should upgrade to 6a or 7a
yes
I am getting pixel 6a in INR 25,750 or USD 314

What phone do you have right now and is it driving you nuts or can you wait cus I have a feeling google will HAVE TO DROP THE PRICE Within WEEKS not month

But yea it will take 3 months and come on sale on independence day according to me
The photos of the Pixel 7a are clearly the colorimetry of iPhone photos but with a much better HDR, on the other hand in video on the main camera, stabilization is super bad, worse than that of the Pixel 6a and by far.
Why you just don't zoom in?
if the price range was similar. which would you prefer? with the trade in, 7a is only £10 more than 6a. at least for me.
if I had to pay the same amount, I would of course have chosen the successor. It's a bit bigger and heavier, but the new features would be worth it to me.
Здравствуйте. Нигде нет сравнения камер 7а и 6....
Nice comparison
Thank you!
I think of buying the 6a for 324€. I had the 7a and tryed it, two things i disliked a lot, weight and display ratio. I know the 6a has the same ratio, but its lighter. It is a good price for the 6a ? Any 6a owners who can tell me if its a good phone?Cheers
Did you buy 6a?

Sharing connexion is ridiculous on this phone, wired or unwired it does not work good. I bought it to use 5g on my computer and I am VERY disapointed. Also doesnt work well for calls. I had to do a full reset of the phone for it to work again properly After only 3 Months. Theses are only a few problems over this phone. They invest in gadget stuffs when the basics does not work. It's like building a house backward.
Wireless charging??
Hey guys help me out. I’m planning to switch from iPhone to google pixel. Should I spend more and get 7a or should I go for 6a and save some money?
6a save your money
Hold off on the EXCITEMENT itll drop in price within weeks then grab this awesome little guy.
It's always nice to say we wish things were cheaper but when you think about the HARDWARE improvements (processor, bigger camera sensor, 90hz refresh rate, wireless charging) that had to be paid for somehow and quite frankly $50 increase seems cheap. I'm so tired of people low balling google
Very funny review. He is trying to convince himself that there is no much difference between these 2 devices, then looks up thinks and is like "but you do get different cameras, there is no difference but "you do get 4k recordings, "high refresh rate etc. 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
You are absolutely right, it should have been $400 which is a sweet spot for 7a. $499 is definitely overpriced.
@@KoalaBeer. Exactly. Only in BlackFriday this year, tho - I think
I have a pixel 4a and am planning to switch to a new phone. Pixel 6a in India cost approx. 330 usd and 7a cost approx 500 usd which should I prefer?
The 7a releasing will decrease the price of the 6a. Id wait a month and get the 6a when its 290/300
I have 6a and 3a.. Both are good phone. But if I can pay today, I will pay Pixel 7. It's almost the same size, but the camera is better. And price only 50 euro higher than 7a now..
Did you start the video hungry ? Cos you ended up saying this is pixel 7a now retailing at $499 which is $50 more than Pixel 7a when it retailed !
I was legit confused and rewatched it 3 times. What's going on!
It's 536 USD in India.
Excellent ✌
Glad my 6a is not left behind that much. Though yes if you're just about to buy, with a 50 dollar difference it makes sense to go with 7a
50 dollar difference? In Europe the 7a is like 500 and you can get the 6a for 330...
I think that 6a is a much better deal. The only difference is 60hz vs 90hz, but it really isn't 100-200 dollars difference. 6a is a bargain now, with its smaller screen and all that you need from the phone.
Not worth the upgrade... I have a 6a myself. The 7a is too close in price to the Pixel 7
6a can be had for $350. Seems like that's the best value.
@05:20 is that real. They look completely different. I don't think this is how 6a shoots. Becoz I own 6a.
Как автономность?
why not put pixel 6 too... pixel 6 and 7a are close in price in some. places...
Which camera is best pixel 7A or 6a?
I prefer the 7a. More noticeable at night
Thanks for this. I think I'll save £150 and get the 6A
but 6a looks so unique.
So should I buy a 6a or a 7a? u$s434 vs u$s560 where I live. Never had a Pixel before
This new features (90hz display, little bit better camera and slow wireless charging) didn't cost 120$.. If you have money, buy pixel 7.. It has really flagship camera module and glass back, and almost the same price (in Europe only 50Euro higher).
Not sure I'm gonna buy the 7a my 6a is working flawlessly up until now.
Same here plus I like the green color better on my 6a
