    Been using the 7a for a year now and have had no problems. I see no reason to upgrade to the 8a. I got it mostly for the camera and the 8a doesn't improve it significantly. Battery life is fine for me and I'm not a gamer. Also I'm not an AI fan until it gets more reliable and useful. So I plan on keeping the 7a at least for all the OS updates and will see what happens then. Where I live I don't get to enjoy much in the way of sales for new smartphones. I found it interesting that the 7 and 8 seem to have sales going on sooner than the 7a which they appeared to be hesitant in lowering the price. I see that as a sign they were selling well at the full price.

    I'm on my second Pixel 7a (first one was warranty swapped owing to the abundance of issues it had - not defects per se but bugs and sub-par performance, radio issues etc...). Some noteworthy considerations (esp if you're accustomed to 'flagship' phones): charging rate is abysmal - it'll either constantly be getting topped up or being charged overnight; screen brightness outdoors is practically nonexistent except for when it momentarily peaks on auto before dropping down to sustained peak; speaker volume is pathetic unless you're in total quiet - I'm constantly checking that it's on max volume; fingerprint reader is very frustrating requiring multiple attempts 90%+ of the time; autorotation is frustrating as heck as it never works when you want or need it to. There are other bugs and annoyances that have pushed me to force restart the phone daily now.
    It's arguably the most disappointing Google (Nexus) / Pixel phone I've owned to date and it's put me off Pixels for the foreseeable future! Maybe I was just unlucky with two duds, who knows.

    £198 EE Store earlier this month with free pixel buds pro coming via promotion soon as well, and stick in a £1.25pm lebara 50GB sim as well for the whole cheap package. BARGAIN!
    About the phone- bezels are ok not dealbreaking, solid smooth performance with 120Hz, good emulation performance on most gamecube games on Dolphin emulator, good AI and gemini performance.
    - some stuttering on scrolling when phone is trying to load up masses of content for example scrolling through UA-cam comments, fingerprint scanner is iffy, plastic back, speakers are very low volume and very tinny, camera quality is not as refined as iPhone.
    If I paid RRP I would not be happy, £400 not happy, £300 not happy, £250 not happy, but for £198 I'm very happy with the phone and the expectations.

    So far, I'm loving it. Especially the small size thanks to the big round corners. The bezel and Gorilla 3 don't bother me because I use screen protector and case. Speed is good, phone stays cool. I only paid $300 USD + taxes for the 8a due to Google Fi customer promo.

    You do get four extra OS updates if you get the Pixel 8A over the 7A. Even if you don't plan on keeping it for 8 years you have the option to give it away or sell it 3 years from now and it would still have a huge shelf life

      Interesting that 2 out of 3 of your choices are Android, you don't feel locked into the Apple ecosystem? Personally I'd choose the 8a over the s23, I just prefer not having the Samsung specific software add-ons to the phone that your stuck with and can't remove, I just prefer the unskinned Android software on Google's phones.
