Of course it’s worth it. People need to quit being so brainwashed into thinking they have to upgrade their phone to the latest model every year. The products from companies like Google, iPhone, Samsung, etc are supposedly made to last, it’s kind of silly to think every time a new model comes out it means it’s time to upgrade because a model bought 10 months or a year or 2 years is “outdated” or “obsolete”.
they were not brainwashed, example in iphones apps have a minimum operating system version requirements so they do go outdated.
Yep and my Samsung lags since I got it. It was outdated since they created it
I’m using pixel 6a almost 6 months
Butter than expensive flagship
Really I like it
I bought it today because the camera quality is supposed to be good, it is relatively cheap and there are long security updates (I only buy a new smartphone every 4-6 years). I use the smartphone only for standard apps and not for gaming. Therefore, I think that it meets my requirements.
how was the camera quality?? I am planning to buy. Is it like an iphone 12mp or a samsung 12mp??
@@Yoriichi_Sengoku Did you buy it?
@@Yoriichi_Sengoku Same question
Can you recommend the shop you bought it from?
it's not a glass back panel fyi. I have pixel 6a, charging is not even a problem when you're using adaptive charging while you sleep.. 60hz is ok, don't drag it down as if it's very slow. even if you're rocking on a 120hz display but your phone processing can't even get you to 60fps it doesn't justify your 120hz. we're talking budget phone here most phone on this price range is considerably slower in performance. pixel is 700-800 in benchmark other phone are only 350-500. performance and camera is great in this Phone, and if you're just gonna watch a 24fps youtube video and a 30fps fb reels you wouldn't want to spend additional $300 just for a better scrolling experience.. thickness of the bezel is doesn't matter if you put case on it, it just look the same with my iPhone with cases on on both phones.
Yes, a previous comment raised to us that it isn't a glass back. It's amazing how good that back panel is that it feels so much like glass. Thanks for your input man 💖
Your comment is very much on point!
Refresh rate is not an issue on this phone.
This phone is just so much fun and the size is just perfect. For 300 USD it's no brainer.
I also love my pixel6a
Refresh rate is more than just a gimmick on phones.
Can you just help me to buy pixel 6a at cheap price...
I just got this phone in Sept 2023 and with all the latest updates this phone performs very well. It's improved a lot since launch. I had read early reviews say battery life was not the best but mine has been great, I think after Android 13 and some subsequent updates it's now perfectly optimized. I especially like is how compact this phone is. Also like the fact that being a Google phone you're assured to always get the latest Android features and updates before most other phones.
What your suggestion for more better than this pixel 6a .device
On this budget mid range phone.. For vloging, camera , and also best prosersor
Bro, anu mas ma recommend mo, itong 6a or the standard 6? They are 4K php apart.
The usage would be more on video streaming, soc med, email and picture taking of kids.
Hope you can reply.
I am considering this mostly coz of the stock android, compact size and decent performance. The good camera is just a bonus point for me and I don't really care about high refresh rate. Thing is, other options for me are the chinese brands (I live in India btw) which have a ton of bloatware that just put me off even tho the UI might be cool and Samsung for which repair costs are too high incase something happens. Moto is probably the only thing I can compare it too rn. I am really confused right now lol.
I've just gone from IPhone 13 pro to pixel 6a. Love it. Love the look and the lightness of it. The battery was taken of charge more than 13 hours ago and I still have 70 % charge left. . Camera is great as well.
That's some pretty noteworthy experience coming from a former iPhone user. :) Glad you like the phone, Victoria! 💖
13 hours and still 70% battery left.? Do you even use your phone or just stare at it 😂
@@MJ-85 of course I use it. What a stupid question. It actually lasted me until 11pm last night on one charge from Sunday night. That included a few games , watching you tube , phone calls ,being online and taking a few photos. Hit 7% at 10.45 pm last night. Now that's impressive
@@victoriawigham5113 A stupid question? calm down lol, menstrual cycle much.... I know for a fact that its 100% bullsh1t you`re spouting, if you actually did what you`re stating on a 6a! Impressive story though. 😅😅😅😅😅😅
@@MJ-85 oh wow sexist much. I'm not lying that's how long the battery lasted . Yes I turned it off over night. I don't make stuff up. Although u do sound a rather angry arrogant man who doesn't like a woman having or voicing an opinion .
What charger should I get for my pixel 6a? Please tell me.
Where can you buy the phone here in the Philippines?
its not yet officially available here in the Phils., but definitely ill buy this phone. thanks for the review
hi sir this or iphone se 2022?
How to remove that annoying google search bar from the home screen without installing any third party launcher?
Hi people, where can I buy Google Phones here in the Philippines specially here in Quezon City?
It's not a glass back, it's a plastic back but a lot of people say it feels like plastic
Which is the better to buy this phone or Samsung note 10 plus?
Sir does it change the quality when posting videos/pics on social media? Is it turning awful when posted like toger android phones? Plannig to buy 6a
up
Thank you.. Im actually doubted if I will buy this one becoz i watch some videos here on yt but because theres is a lot of users drop their comments, now im convinced hehe❤
How's the 6As front camera? and is when using soc meds?
Front cam is decent but nothing special. I love this for socials because I can reach anything with ease because of its size. 🙂
Can you do a Pixel 7 review po?
I work on remote control hobby kits alot so yes I have sweaty hands and oily hands as well. I own a xiaomi mi 11 lite 5g, it's matte glass on it's back saves me from many many finger prints.
Design is Timeless
Pixel 6a vs Vivo v29, which one is better po sa video and pictures?
I'm planning to buy this probably this December. I like Photography and videos of this phone.
Still a good option for photography and videography 🙂👍
loved your accent and oration.. subscribed 👍
Thanks, Tahir! I didn't actually think this review will be suggested outside of our country, but welcome aboard. :)
This youtuber just copy what mkbhd said. I got the phone ang i'm from a 120hz phone. This phone is smooth guys. Its like the iphone 60hz. I don't know how these people call this display slow.
The display is the first thing that I've noticed upon using this, actually. We might have a different distinction of the term "slow". Cheers 🥂
have been used flagship phone before this . from 120 fresh rate , faster charging better sceen so on ,,, but after awhile using pixel 6a since october 2022, to me ..... well ,,, its seems enough for me ... the cons was mention in this video not really effect on my daily useage ,,,,
when you are looking for a gaming phone the refresh rate is definitely one factor you should consider but for like normal phone users, 60 hz is actually fine. Planning to buy this by new year or on december haha, glad to know that people still think its a viable phone. I really wanted the cam of pixel phones and these cameras come with good chipsets too so it is such a perfect phone for me. But I will not be buying a brand new one cuz its out of my budget lol and I also found a good store to buy second hand pixel phones. I just hope it is still available when I already have enough money to buy it, because i will just be saving money out of my 500 peso baon per week haha
Saan nyo po mabibili dto sa pilipinas?
I would consider this phone if it is officially available in the country and there is aftersales support :) hehe.
Nice video!
does pixel6a fast charging benefit from 18watt charger brick that came from pixel 2xl box?
Hi Kit! We haven't tried that combo but technically the Pixel 6A only accepts up to 18W. Based on our test with even higher wattage chargers, the results remained the same. 🥂 - Andre
you deserve a subscriber! done subscribing, well-detailed review!
Nice presentation, subscribed
Just got my pixel 6 pro, no complain at all superb talaga ng camera kaya super fanny ako ng pixel ❤
All devices are performing at their best within their first 6 months, only after does it start to feel degraded, so by the 2nd year, it's feeling like it needs to be replaced to be fast again.
That's a very valid observation. It does feel like that with some models. 😬
Anong sims po compatible sa pixel 6a?
unfortunately pixels phone dont support 5G in the Philippines. noticable po ba difference sa connectivity compared to 5G? also the the volte and vowifi can affect the experience? opinion naman po, planning to get pixel 7 and wala akong nakikitang reviews about dito. thanks
Hi Jerald! Yes, I realized it late kaya hindi ko na include in this review pero sadly yes, walang support for 5G dito. It wasn't very noticeable nung hindi ko pinansin but when I compared with other phones medyo dun ko siya na notice. For my purposes hindi naman ako bothered since I'm mostly on wifi, so I guess it would depend sa ating use case. Yun nga lang hindi masyadong future proof choice with this limitation.
Pixel 6a fixed some issue on a14 jan 2024 sec update battery and overheating is ok in terms of display in bright condition set to adaptive no hastle to make visible 8n sunny day..
Meron na po akong pixel 6a, tanong lang po sa mga meron na may ginawa ba kayo para mapabilis internet pag mobile data ang gamit? Napakabagal kasi base sa experience ko. gomo sim ininsert ko
On mine 6A after 10' of photography no heating at all
I bought my 6a for 300, its super light, 60hz display feels like 90 or 120hz, 18w is sooo slooow and also wireless charging is missing, low light video is horrible, but at day photos and video is perfect, perfect stabilisation! Haptics are the best! Best buy for ever!
I use 33 watts charger of xiaomi phone it charge rapidly
Ayun may review si Sir! I'm upgrading, and torn what to choose between an iPhone 11 or Pixel 6a, this review really helps a lot!
Thank you, Prince! I think GameXtreme is selling the Pixel 6A for less than 19k only. Sulit at that price! :)
Nice video I like and subscribe
which is best for long term usage pixel 6a or s20 fe 5g?
6a
Does not having 5g, volte and voip still make it a recommended buy?
it does have 5g. but depends on your telco provider. like mine, i didnt have it. my telco doesnt support 5g for pixel 6a
At my job the Pixel 6a is the same price as the A14 right now. This phone is overkill for 95% of the smart phone market.
What does it mean?
@@dominogudito840 what does what mean?
Before one year i used 6 pro ....
Today I will receive 6a .... End of the end the Google pixel mobile it's very nice
Whats with the title? The 6a just came out July of 2022, it hasn't even been released for a full year. Kind of makes it seem like one of those videos where someone sees if a 3 or 4 year old phone is still worth it
Most smartphone brands come out with new models every three or four months. "Is it still worth it" means if it is still worth buying this over a more recently released phone. But I understand where you're coming from. Cheers mate 🥂
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.
Not a glass back panel
Just got a used one for $200. I like the camera
This phone cameras are freaking amazing!!
Indeed they are! 🙂
*Since when did 60Hz start becoming jittery, lol.* Most of the OTT content, videos, movies, etc are all below 60Hz. Even popular gaming titles are enjoyable on 60Hz unless you're a pro.
I guess we can say it's a subjective thing. But I understand what you mean and that is true. Still, we think it is jittery even when not gaming. Cheers mate 🥂
@@TechLokal I think it's more related to UI/app optimizations or animations than the 60Hz panel but I digress
Cheers 🥂
@@xdadev good point. That could be very likely 👌
Nice review 👏
Glad you like it, Ralph! 🙂✨
Will the phone last upto 4years with moderate daily usage? My main concern is camera and battery life
Yes
100% yes
I think yes, if you aren't a heavy user.
The battery issue I've encountered with it not charging to 18watts is because you might be using a qualcomm fast charging charger. it does not work. you have to get a dedicated charger like the one from anker with IQ to make the most out of it, I got a significant charging speed difference once I used the anker charger. also double check the adaptive charging mode because it'll charge your phone super slow to preserve battery health
I also came from a POCO x3(with a 120hz screen) to be honest, the refresh rate is negligible and not a dealbreaker, can barely notice the difference unless you nitpick on the animations. had a hard time choosing between pixel 6a and pixel 7 but there's so little difference in practicality that I decided to go with the 6a, loving it so far.
Not hating the Pixel 6A but the charging speed and refresh rate are gripes that are also commonly frowned upon with it on Facebook and reddit groups. We understand that this is subjective. Cheers 🥂
@@TechLokal totally, I do get the small frustration on the downgrade from 30W to 18W charging tho 😂 great review and nice video, hope to see more of your content soon
I would like to ask, pixel 6a needs a PD charger for full 18W rapid charging speed, but what if I don't need fast charging.....Can I charge this gadget with my 33W QC charger?? Will it damage my battery life aur anything sort of hardware?? I'm totally comfortable with the charging speed as I put it overnight to get charge I don't really need fast charging....The only thing I'm worried about is, will this QC charger damage my battery?
Somebody plzzz clear my doubt....
@@rishabhchachar9392 non PD charger will charge it at 5W I believe. So no problem at all, just slow.
90Hz is overrated.
I had phone with 90hz. display i always went back to 60, simply because i want to save battery power.
aslong as its amoled im ok with it. those Mild Lags doesnt bother me.
what i need from a smart phone is an excellent Camera.
for me the gripe i have with Pixel 6a is its poor connectivity (Atleast in my country)
Refresh rate & display is fine to me dont make it seem bad & charging isnt that slow
It is definitely bearable but mediocre compared to others within its price range. Cheers mate 🥂
Sir kung hindi dahil kay pixel 6a, di ko nakita tong channel nyo😂 Very neat content po❤ New Subscriber👋
I'm currently a Poco x4 gt user. I bought this phone dahil adik pa rin ako sa ML & Codm pero dahil sa kanya, nareach ko Mythic Glory at Legendary. After ko mareach yang goals ko, bigla na akong nagsawa.
Now, I'm planning to buy a pixel 6a, pero after ng review niyo, bat parang naging hesitant ako. I want to know if it is a good choice? Kasi ako tinatamad na talaga ako maggaming at gusto ko na ng casual use at photography, ofcourse. Is it okay po ba sir?
I'm still in college. I dropped a semester and went to work my arse off in freelance at construction. For 4 months, I've accumulated 25k at part nun pinambili ko ng phone. I want to know if this phone is fit for a student like me.
Pwede din naman pong iphone 11 kasi andaming nagbebenta ng mga i11 nila pero social judgement, either looking mayaman ka or feeling mayaman ka kasi if iphone kaya stick to android.
Thank you po sa pagbasa and thank you din sa reply.
Tingin ko sulit naman talaga itong Pixel 6A pero depende kung anong habol natin sa phone. Compared sa Poco x4 GT, yung Poco will perform slightly better in terms of speed. But quality, design and camera performance, Pixel 6A ang choice ko. 🙂 Personally, I'll stick with your X4 GT and ipon muna sa ibang mas significant yung improvement.
Salamat sa pag sub! 🙂
@@TechLokal thank you po❤️
where can i buy this?
Amazon or Flipkart (IF you're in India)
You are selling this 6a
Bought one on 235$ on offer, can't complain for the price!
That's a pretty sweet deal!
@@TechLokal My last device was a Realme 7, so, it is a great upgrade!
In official site bro?
Which store?
Sold my 14 pro max today, to replace it with Pixel 6a 🥰
Honestly, i dont see any noticeable changes aside from the Operating System and GUI.
4:44 did he just say Vanilla?😂 maybe he meant Stock Android Experience
18W in 2023? even 2 years ago still cap... was going to get it but 18W HELL NO!
Still worth it naman yung theme ng video, eh parang impression lang at nagbasa lang ng specification ginawa mo. Ni wala ngang mga Pixel features nabanggit para majustify kung worth it ba para sa 2023 yung Pixel kundi yung updates lang. 60hz iphone smoothness nga sa animation at scrolling wala naman jittery na hindi katulad ng realme gt neo ko kahit nakamtk8100 at 120hz mayroon paring sumusulpot na jitters o stutters lalo sa scrolling ng TH-cam, Facebook o website sa chrome, ganoon din sa Mi 11 lite 5g ng nanay ko. Pixel 5a ko noon at ngayon 6a na mas mabilis lang sa processing sa kuha ng camera at pagbukas bukas ng apps dahil flagship na yung gamit na processor pero parehas naman consistent sa smoothness hindi na kailangan ireboot o iclose na ang app sa tagal na ginagamit hindi tulad ng mga chinese phone paminsan minsan lumalabas. Pixel lang yung phone na nawala yung habit ko iclear lahat ng apps sa background palagi, parang sa iPad Air 4 ko.
Salamat, Handsome Squidward!
True. may 6a din ako pero ok naman sya di ko mapansin yung mga jitter jitter na tinutukoy nila, siguro kung tech expert ka mapapansin mo, pero kung karaniwan ka lang tao na gumagamit ng smartphone alaws ka naman mapapansin. mukhang di talaga nya inaral yung phone dahil sabi nya glass back panel, e plastic lang na may coating yan. pero isa din yun sa nagustuhan ko sa phone. kita mo nagoyo yung nag rereview. kasi di sya mukhang cheap tignan, mukha syang premium. maganda pagkakagawa nila sa likod ng phone.
Boss in terms of camera, pixel 6/6a o gt neo 3?
just bought one brand new for $150 good deal
Which store?
Huawei nova 9 or Google pixel 6a?
Personal choice, I would go with the Pixel 6a :) - Andre

Its plactic back, another problem 5g isn't working in the Philippines.
Ano po piliin nyo, ito(google) or ung one plus nord?
Ang hirap naman niyan 🙂
Google Pixel 6A will have faster peak performance. Significantly better cameras rin, may ultrawide cam pati better screen colors and sharpness. OnePlus Nord CE3 Lite has a bigger, faster and brighter screen, better sound quality, faster charging, longer battery life, pati no 5G issues in the Philippines since its locally released. :)
I had a OnePlus Nord 2 and I think performance wise, it was better. It has better refresh rate, faster charging, longer battery life.
Bought a Pixel 6a a few months ago and I like the cameras better. And since cameras are my priority, gave my other phone to my father. The 6a is lighter too so yay for me with small hands.
@@sadie513 so you bought a nord 3 and compared it?
It is a plastic panel
Saan mabibili google pixel
GameXtreme ata meron Pixel devices :)
Service centre problem in india
Yes it is. Don't be so spoiled people
7:19 "extremely slow" that is exaggeration.
Where to buy??
Hi Lance! GameXtreme sells the Pixel lineup locally 🙂
I would recommend buying the Google Pixel 6 5G rather than the 6a version.
The specs are pretty good although the price is higher but it's worth it! You get a 90hz refresh rate, 30watts wired charger, and 21watts wireless charger.
Better than the Pixel 6a in my opinion.
❤️
bro there is something called budget. If theres a tight budget obviously 6a is best at its price range. If They think like you do why wont they just go with iphone 14 pro max. Its price is higher but its worth it , Is'nt it?
@@divytyagi2057
There are obvious price difference between the Pixel 6 5G and the 14 Pro Max Bruh,
The Google Pixel 6 5G retails for 22,990₱ - (8GB/128GB)
If you have a budget under ₱25K
Then buy the Pixel 6 5G IF necessary,
But you're telling me that i should go for the iPhone 14 Pro Max that retails for ₱81,890 (256GB). Why should i go for the iPhone 14 Pro Max but my budget is only Under ₱25K?
Yes, you can go for other alternatives if you do not like the Google Pixel 6 (5G), Like 2nd Hand iPhones. Or Older iPhone Devices.
Take note that I'm talking about the GOOGLE PIXEL 6 5G (NOT THE PRO VERSION)
Yeah it's "better" than the 6a because 6a is the budget-friendly variant in the Pixel 6 series. So there are some features that they have to sacrifice, just to achieve the budget-friendliness of the 6a.
And BTW, even though I have a 25k pesos budget, I pre-ordered 6a instead of 6 because: 1) compact size and 2) 6a seems to have a better build quality than the 6. I read feedbacks that 6 users had experienced deadboots. I don't mind the higher screen refresh rate, faster charging speed, and wireless charging, as long as my phone gets its job done as my daily driver.
@@divytyagi2057 iphone is overpriced def not worth it

Looks dated? Literally looks like every other phone
The screen bezels
@@TechLokal 99% of people wouldn't notice. Only tech nerds like us. Doesn't bother me though.
@@theorgazoid4918 you're probably right. I guess we've just been used to seeing a lot slimmer bezels on other phones lately. But true, most people might not even notice. 🥂
Been using Pixel 6a for almost three months. It's pretty decent and has really good cameras for its price.
I have to say the vanilla android is quite underwhelming. Maybe I just got used to feature-rich OS like EMUI and OxygenOS/ColorsOS. I just don't get the hype for stock android. The Oneplus 9 I had felt a lot smoother and faster.
As for the charging, I'm surprised it charges slower than my old Huawei Mate 20. I don't care for wireless charging too so I don't mind that it's missing.
I bought it last week. I liked it very much. It was almost the best for my use case.
Pros - Good value buy with lowered price
Many cool Pixel features - especially the Assistant which works best with Pixel
Smooth to use, if one is not used to a 90hz or greater panel
Size for one handed use
Camera is good and feature rich, OIS in primary lens
Speakers are good
Good looks and in hand feel due to slight curve in display (but you wont feel it with case and screen protector)
HDR+ is nice
Material UI
One of the best always on display experience.
Two more Android OS before day one, after 13. Total 5 years of security support.
Cons - Charging speed/ No wifi charging
Display brightness and warmer colours
Old camera sensors and front camera
Weird button placement for power and volume
Poor Google after sale service support infrastructure in India but haven't needed it in the last decade or so.
Very comprehensive! Great input, man. 🙂 And congrats on getting the new phone. I love this size too!
Heating issue while charging?
1:12 its a plastic back panel
made to look glass @TECHLOKAL
Yes, thank you! That has been raised by other comments. It's shocking how close to glass it looks. I appreciate the correction. Cheers! 🥂
