As crazy as it may sound, I still sometimes get 12 hours SOT in extreme rare case scenarios on my Pixel 5 such as on my sick days when I'm doing nothing but light tasks such as UA-cam, texting on apps like Discord, FB Messenger, etc. and Bloons Tower Defense 6 (Very light game in the early rounds) at 10% brightness with 2½ days of usage. Admittedly I did it with WiFi on with airplane mode enabled to still receive texts and calls... (Which I rarely get anyway) These phones are battery monsters especially when you're actively trying to see how long they can last on some unrealistic scenarios like I just mentioned.
The #Pixel4a5G is by far my favorite device especially for when I travel. The *battery lasts long.* I don't have to constantly look for a charger or outlet. I use the #Pixel5 as my secondary device. I use it basically as my daily driver (except when I'm traveling I use the 4a5G). I like how compact it is and yet still powerful enough to handle tasks I throw at it. I do wish though that its speakers could be a bit more louder and clearer.
The Pixel 5A is on sale right now for $399 at the Google store and the Pixel 6 I think was on sale for $4.99 and I think at one point the Google buds came with it free as well
I am a little confused actually. I wanted to buy a pixel phone but I wasn't sure if I was going to buy the new pixel 5A or the pixel 5 or the pixel 4XL. The pixel 4XL looked really great because it had much better specs in almost every regard but it was older and everybody says it has a dim display and poor battery life so as hard as it was for me to do I crossed that off my list. Even though the pixel 5A was cheaper and had a bigger battery it cut a lot of corners where the pixel 5 did not. So I ended up buying a pixel 5. I have been buying Galaxy Note phones for the past five years or so and they've been great phones but have not had great battery life so that is specifically one thing that I was wanting. I've only had my pixel 5 for a week or so and I definitely need to give it more time but my first impressions are not amazing. I wanted to pick the 5 over the 5A because it did not cut corners but I was actually debating getting a 5a and selling my pixel 5 because pixel 5A does have a bigger battery life and perhaps the corners it cuts are things that can be forgiven, also the pixel 5 that I bought was a used phone that was in good condition so I have no idea how old it is or how good the battery life is. I was debating getting a pixel 5A because at least it has a bigger battery that is also brand new assuming I bought a new 5a and why wouldn't I since it is much more affordable. However watching your video does not show the 5A as lasting much much longer than the 5 like I had hoped. I feel I must do some more research on this before I make any purchases...
@@vickneswaran198 5a doesn't have PDAF camera module; it might affect low light autofocus performance while shooting on moving object. 5a doesn't have unlimited saver quality photo and video backup ( 16MP photo while 1080P video). Meanwhile, after the 128GB internal storage finishes, we need to find somewhere to store our photos & video. 4a 5G supports 4k 60 fps on rear camera, and yes, it doesn't have water resistance. But keep in mind, Pixel 4a 5G UW is rated IP52, but Google didn't mention that. It using the Ingress Protection rating system. The dust rating is 5, and the water resistance rating is 2 (protected from water spray less than 15 degrees from the vertical). Some youtubers put 4a into water for 30 minutes, it still works, but it is not recommended. I just want to let you know that for normal cleanup and rainy days, 4a 5G has no problem at all. The stuff is does it worth paying an extra 50 bucks (499-4a 5G) for unlimited photo and video backup.
All pixels have battery issues after android 12 like if google did it on purpose.. using 3a and 4a 5g had to turn the always on display off the exact next day to regain 15% after loosing total of 25%~30% of battery health .. and android 12 did not add much for me to take much battery... I wish the only upgrade in android 13 is the battery. @Googlepixel
It is a bit strange that the battery of the pixel 4a 5g lasts less if in the first video it lasted an average of 10 hours of screen when you compared it with the pixel4, 4XL and 4a
There were slightly different tasks in these two videos. I think in general this test was a bit more draining than the previous one. The Pixel 5 lasted longer as well in the first test.
I get around ~5hr of SOT these days on my Pixel 5. Using wifi, regular cellular reception. I wonder if my phone's battery life has some issue. Any thoughts? Or is this fine?
Hello, great video. Can you share where you got the phone's background photo from? (Unless it came with the phone, sorry, I've never had a pixel before and my 5A arrive tomorow!)
Still i use pixel 4 which is brought from used phone shop. But i get 4 hours screen on time. Is any chance to get more 2 hours backul If i change the battery?? What you think?? Please tell from your experience
Glad someone finally did a battery comparison test with these three devices.
Pixel 5 and 4a 5g did great having smaller batteries and a year older. Thanks for the comparison!

Watching this on my Pixel 5 and I can definitely say the battery is incredible.
Is it still incredible?

For your next battery test you should also try the GPS functionality because that drains the battery pretty quickly as well

this video is exactly what we want 🤩
Can't wait for the Pixel 6 being added to the test! Great stuff.

Well, you should have bought a new Pixel 5 to experience its great battery life
you are the only one who did a comparison video on youtube or at least the only video i found
Amazing Vid 👏🏻👏🏻. After my S9,I wanna have a Pixel for first time, I Know they're excellent phones.
Much appreciated your effort ❤️ great video!
Watching your videos is always delightful! Keep up the great work. Can't wait for the Pixel 6!
Almost 1k difference in battery size between 4a5g and 5a5g but slight difference in SOT
4a5g might be a better bargain
But 5a has water resistance and 4k 60fps...

man this was intense, the pixel 5 rlly clutched it at the end
i love your comparison.

are u still using 4a 5g? if yes then has ur battery issue got resolved or not?
No.. that's the new normal

Loved the test and the wallpaper, could you tell me where did you get the wallpaper from?
thats cool can you do a video of charging test
Thank you very good test
Good job, thanks for your efforts 👍
A little surprised 5a's big battery doesn't help so much
Display is big
I get around ~5hr of SOT these days on my Pixel 5. Using wifi, regular cellular reception. I wonder if my phone's battery life has some issue. Any thoughts? Or is this fine?
Definitely not fine. Your phone wont even last three hours if you play demanding games
Are you a heavy user?
If u are a heavy user go for the Google pixel 5a
Thanks for the awesome video :D
Amazing screen on time
Hello, great video. Can you share where you got the phone's background photo from? (Unless it came with the phone, sorry, I've never had a pixel before and my 5A arrive tomorow!)
Hi, thank you! Yes, I found this picture in the default wallpapers on the phone
@@Irina_Tech Thank you for letting me know!
4a 5g is great phone consider it's prices and weight👍
real time battery drain test. thank u so much for doing this test. subscribe!
I just get 5hrs around on my pixel 4a 5g. Its running on Android 13. I use only social media apps and netflix.
Android 13 really ? How is it because I haven't seen any android 13 vids that weren't beta ?
2:16-Why did you not clean it before starting the video?!
Bsst video and very helpful for me.
finally a video thats actually useful
Christ! You have patience Irina 🤣
As usual,,a visual delight to watch your reviews.
Good job. Keep it up.
Battery drain test between these older models vs Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro please!
Yes it's helpful thanks
Still i use pixel 4 which is brought from used phone shop. But i get 4 hours screen on time. Is any chance to get more 2 hours backul If i change the battery??
What you think??
Please tell from your experience
Thanks for the test
❤️💚🧡💙💛💜 Great Camparison
You are such a cute to clean the phones in the middle of everything, hehe!!!
Good job thanks
Now I want a Pixel 5, but they are hard to find.
How? Mi pixel 4a 5g not intensive use i got 5:30hrs SOT 😢
I am curious to know which phone did you use as a timer!!
Pixel 4a 😊
That’s why i love my 4a 5G ❤️
Almost upgraded to 5a just because of battery. But after this I'm good. Sticking to my 4a 5g.
@@heymiguel85 yeah me too, i just love how it's simple and performs. ❤️
It’s very useful 👍💯
9 hrs sot on 5g... thats amazing if true bc the nord n200 i have has a 5000mah battery and lasts maybe 6 hrs sot
Most people use their phones on cellular... No idea why you would test these on wifi
Good work 👍
I think i want to buy the pixel 5a
If you own so many Pixel devices can you tell us if you're already testing 6 and 6 pro?😁
Good review…
Thanks
What about camera comparison between iphone xs max and iphone 13 pro max
Perfect ❤️
Nice battery test 👍
nice test
Great
Pixel 5 90'hz de kaç saat ekran süresi veriyor
Sister please make pixel 5A 5g camera video
Nice video
Can somebody please test 5 vs 5a vs 6 vs 6a. . That's the test we all need...
Super
9 freaking hours that's insane
I have fallen in love with Google pixel products
Pixel 5a is 5g supported..?
It's always WiFi test.. If it use cellular 4g phone would last at best 5hrs SOT
Are the displays on full brightness 🔆
Did you really watched her video?
Hare Krishna
seems like the 90hz display didnt consume too much juices a s i thought it would
She disabled 90hz on the p5 before test
I just bought. A pixel 5a 5g on eBay hoping it ships through out the holidays lol 😂
Ещё бы на русском такой обзор, было бы вообще супер 😎
My pixel 4a5g didnot give more than 4hours
good
Pixel 5 has 90hz..maybe you forgot to switch it off before starting
Is it worth to buy pixel 4a 5g in 2023 may ??
Тоже думаю его или 5А
@@debryansk 5a очевидно, если и сравнивать его, то с обычным 5
