I love how to calculated the SOT. That seems like the most accurate realistic display of that category. Great job 👍🏾
Your reviews are amazing. I knew I was gonna see something else what other reviewers didn't show.
I've had the 6a for 4 days now and I've been pretty impressed. It's as good as any flagship phone I've ever used. Just proves you don't need to spend $1000 on a phone or have the latest specs to have a great phone.
This review was amazing. Very thorough and enjoyed the commentary
Great review. Unbelievable how much effort you put in those videos
Thanks Micheal for the amazing comment
@@IDTR please send me one piece in rignbl price
@@IDTR ONE SMALL DOUBT !!
Are both the phones fresh and new devices?
Or
is the Pixel 6 pro an already used old one?
Just asking because comparing an already used Pixel 6 pro with a newly unboxed Pixel 6A is not correct.
How much effort you put in your videos.. respect 👍🏻
You have set a benchmark for the whole youtube community on how to actually review a phone. Great work. Just one thing I feel missed was that many reviewers are saying there are fingerprint issues. Unregistered fingerprints are able to unlock the phone. So I wish that was also included
I really appreciate your feedback, for the fingerprint I believe reviewers are talking about the out of the box experience, the doesn't ship with the latest software that include all bug fixes but I did upgrade the software and didn't face this issue once, this is my assumption
@@IDTR Ohh so an update to fix has arrived. Great thanks 😁
Definitely a better review than MKBHD, lots of technical insight. I've had the Pro for a while now and I still love it lol It's good to see Google make quality budget phones! I got the 6a for my father, glad I did!
Mk has been bought and paid for ages ago
Outstanding review! I have never seen such great detail and test efforts, really well done!
This is hands down the best screen on time calculation I have ever seen.
Henlo! Was waiting for this :)
I like pixel 5 design compact and best looking
Great review! Congrats! I wanted to ask you if the Pixel 6a screen feels hollow just like the Pixel 6 does and if Google pushed the July update with support for more countries for 5G and VoLTE. Thank you.

That's what you call in depth review. You earned my sub.
Man, you're the best. Keep up the great work.
Thanks for this very detailed and interesting comparison !
A great review and quite surprising to see how well the 6a stood out against the 6. It really comes down to specific features or hardware details when deciding which one to get.
I personally cannot go back to a lower refresh rate after experiencing 120 Hz on the 6 Pro. I take hundreds of photos every month and have become attached and love the Photos features specific to the 6 Pro.
Kudos on a nicely done review and comparison! We upgraded to the Google Pixel 6a from the Pixel 4; so far, we are very happy with our choice. Battery life is looking to be a huge improvement. And to think that I REALLY wanted to get the 6 Pro. Subscribed!
Thank you so much for your effort. It was one of the systematic cleanest comparisons.
What about the assistant voice typing?
Could you maybe do a comparison between the 6A and the 6 or even maybe the previous models without the tensor chip?
Just to talk like you did in the video of the six and six pro and see if you get the same results in all of these phones in comparison
Hi you got yourself a new subt, love the channel, well informed and in detail, no bs, I’m planning on replacing my iphone ax that I used since 2018, nut that it’s a bad phone it’s just half broken , and I’m thinking to go either Pixel 6 A or for the same price Galaxy Note 10 +, what would you chose and why? They both go for about 300-350£.
Very detailed and comprehensive review really meaningful information rather than the usual rants about refresh rate and cliche terms from other more popular reviews
I'm also getting tired of this copy and paste comment from pixel fanboys when they can't comprehend why people don't like buggy phones
Thanks for really good review!
hope ur channel grows mate
💡 brilliant review. Thorough analysis
Great job again!
I value your hardwork man.. Yes, the Pixel 6a has the better camera than the 6 pro, i agree. But many tech reviewers say the 6 pro has the upperhand vs the 6a in camera department, which is not true. I have seen many comparison and yes the 6a has the best camera in the pixel line up right now.. The standard mode is even better than the newer pixel 7 and 7 pro.. But many tech reviewers see the Pixel 6a as the BUDGET phone, so they kinda bias towards the pro model and say the Pro version of Pixel phones have a better camera than the Budget 6a, Which is not the case.
21 million people had voted the Pixel 6a as the best camera smartphone of 2022 in a blind test comparison, that has to tell you something, right.
Thx for telling us the truth. I aporeciate your hard work man..
This is the best review I've seen for pixel 6a, Keep It Up 👍
This is called the real review 🔥
Excellent review 👌❤️
Appreciate your efforts 👍
well done sir keep up the good work
Excellent review👍🏼
Nice video as usual.. Thank you..
One of the best reviews so far! Professional, high quality, straight to the point. Thanks a lot for your effort!
Thank you for your review, will you be comparing the 6a to the 3 and 4 with the latest gcam version? Thanks
Will compare with the 4a and 5, these are the ones I have now
Your work with your channel name is worthwhile. Such detailed videos are rarely seen on youtube. You doing great work keep doing it love from India. Thank you 💙
I like the temp comparisons. 👍👍👍
I appreciate the effort. baraka laho fik
Excellent tests. Best phone reviewer on TH-cam.
Great Informative video Sir. I'm going to trade in my pixel 5a today and order a 6a. Thanks for the educational info My Bro.
oh my god, this review is legendary.
Great video.. nicely done.. thank you..
Best comparison video.
Great review.
Thank you for all the hard work you put into this review. It's a great help as I decide whether to buy it. Thinking I will. I'm not mad about the lack of 90hz.
How's does battery of 6 pro compare with 6a after March update changing the resolution to 1) 1080p 120hz 2) 1080p 60hz
This video is really in-depth
Fantastic video!
Best review for Pixel 6a that I've seen so far . And I've seen a lot )))
When we can expect the pixel 7pro to be announced? I guess it is in October but anyone know the proximate date?
The question here is are those advantages for the 6A are related to the software, which gives hope to the 6 pro to get these improvements or is it something else?
Which is the app you are using to scroll automatically?
One of the most detailed videos on youtube.
I think everyone can get their answers here.
Can you tell me if the heating issue of pixel 6a got better (in terms of day to day task) after the android 13 beta update.
Because I'm planning to buy one. And I'm not a heavy user.
Your videos are just clear and detail
Hi Emad. On the Pixel 6A once you opt in for A13 beta 4.1, can you go back to A12, without losing your data or factory resetting? Thanks. I'm not getting anywhere near the same battery life as you on my 6A.
You have to wipe to revert back to A12, I don't think you will need to revert because Android 13 is due next month
@@IDTR thank u

@@dwara6974 your point is so irrelevant. There is no thing such as new phone older phone here.. Pixel 6 pro is a flagship phone, it has to be the better phone vs the 6a and it does. Eventhough the camera on 6a is slighlt better but the overall experience of usage still better on the 6 Pro.
@@srztf how is it so irrelevant? He compared the battery and performance here. Even a kid knows that every electronic device faces a decline in battery capacity and processor performance over time due to heating. That's why I asked whether both are fresh units or used ones.
For the battery test, did your you have adaptive battery on for both or was it off?
it was on
@@IDTR Ok cool thanks

good vid dude
I don't get at all your same battery result with my 6a :((( what should I do? Sould i return it or wait for the battery to stabilize?
Great review as always! Cheers from Italy
First I recommend android 13 beta 4.1 and give it a week to settle down, you will get the same performance
@@IDTR oh thanks. Maybe i missed it, but did you have android 13 installed in your review?
Me neither.
@Joseph Espi. so right after the return window ends? Lol. This is a major problem with this launch. You’re completely dependent on Google to fix several issues after the return window. I’m in the same position and I may return it.

After A13 the device has much faster performance overall but what type of tasks do you think might impact your device temperature
awesome review 🔥. you should make more of these.
16:15 - Is that not the opposite? The article states that the 7 Pro will use Samsung GM1 instead of Sony's IMX576.
Quality testing!
Did anyone notice that the speech recognition implemented in the Gboard keyboard does not work? When you are offline and press the microphone symbol in the Gboard keyboard a large microphone symbol appears and when you speak it does not recognise anything.
If you try the same on e.g. Pixel 4a in offline mode the keyboard stays visible and it says talk now above the key and writes what you say.
This is really weird because the speech recognition actually has been praised on Pixel tensor devices.
Can anyone reproduce this or has found a solution?
It is also happening on the previous pixel 6 devices.
which app are you using for battery temp?
Inware
@@IDTR thankyou!
What about the network performance? Could you share with us? (I have P6pro with network and overheating issue (android 12 and 13 beta)).
On A12 I noticed a very slow Wi-Fi Speed but after installing A13 Beta 4.1 it's a lot faster, I didn't have any network issues but am on 4G because Google doesn't support 5G here in Dubai, not sure if your network issues are related to 5G or not.
@@IDTR In France, I'am on 4G but it is consuming the battery like orange juice and generally it has the network signal issue and heating issue. Wifi speed and consuming awesome. I think that I should send my P6P to RMA but I believe that nothing will change.

Can't I just check my screen on time in the digital well-being dashboard, with the day-to-day usage?
You are The best. Always
What about the main issue from the Pixel 6, The fingerprint?
I move to Apple because All the bugs from the last pixel, I still own it.
Your review are the best of all the tech youtubers, pretty IN-DEPTH!
But I would like to ask you if you could test this, I saw a comment on the Google Pixel reddit that the 6A has poor photo quality on snapchat, and I dont know if it is the same on instagram (I personally dont use Snapchat, just IG) which is strange because I thought Google has a partnership with them to support their phones with improved camera performance than other Android devices, maybe that was just for the Pixel 6/6 Pro and not the 6A?
Will test that, thanks for sharing this interesting point
The best comparison I have seen, thank you very much, my brother 🙏 I will buy the Pixel 6A, the size suits me, and the performance is very good
Great video! I think, if I were to buy a new phone these days, it would probably be the 6a. Also because it's not that big.
But for now I'm still very happy with my Pixel 5.
I agree, and I would not switch from pixel 5 into such a time as a new flagship compares in a size.
Excellent reviews
Glad you like them!

Nice video... Pixel 5 or pixel 6a? Which Camera is better?
THIS IS HOW TO DO REVIEW!!!! 🔥🔥🔥
btw is there any proximity or auto brightness sensor issue with 6a?
youre the best reviewer.
Hey emad,just a doubt. I am using 6a and doesn't have features like motion mode,face unblur. Is there any gcam mode for 6a that brings pixel 6 features to 6a??
Till now I didn't see any mod that does that
@@IDTR ok thanks and just one more thing,are you using any file manager on your pixel 6 pro other than files go??
I love to use everything stock if it serves the purpose
Love your videos, very measured. Also love your pronounciation of "6 pro" lol
If it only had 90 Hz, I would have bought it. But I've gone with the 6. With developer mode enabled and animations set to 0.5 instead of the default setting, it's blazing fast.
Does pixel 6a support 5g in UAE?
Please can you make a comparison between pixel 5 and 6a camera
After watching MKBHD's video and a few other videos, I became uninterested because everyone's complaining about the 60Hz display.
Your review is a breath of fresh air in this saturated 6a review space. Great job man!
Thanks bro
@@IDTR hello sir
Some one with fake indepth review account doing comments for dm them on telegram to get a special surprise 😂
Enjoyed it from my 6a ♥️
Can you do the same comparison with pixel 6 ?
Hey Emad, recently picked up this phone aswell, do you have any issues regarding touch sensitivity in the bottom/top corners of the display? A few instances I've been unable to click the X's in corner for pop-up ads, the gear icon in the YT app in landscape mode, and in a game I play I'm unable to press the skip turn button consistently.
Other than that I really like the phone, but I have both my thumbs registered for the fingerprint yet and able to consistently unlock it using my unregistered index finger. Other people had this issue too.
Also it says "Very Quite" at 2:02, happens to the best of us. 😂
Am not impacted by the fingerprint issue but am using A13 Beta 4.1 not sure if that's the reason, regarding the display touch, I will try that but I didn't notice any so far.
For the spelling mistake "🤦 it usually happens with me"
the primary lens on the P6P is wider than on P6a, i dont know if the ultrawide is wider too, but it is clearly visible in your comparison pictures and from other youtubers too
Maybe Google is cropping the image to remove the distortion
This was well done. Good job.
Hey Emad, in my country the pixel 6a is selling for 10 dollars more than the 6, yes the 6a is more expensive, which one should i get. The speakers, the battery, the vibration, the camera, thermal throttling are a deal breaker for me, and also is the fingerprint security flaw fixed, and i dont mind the 60hz screen, and i am not going to use 5g, cuz its useless, just sips battery and has little to no benefit in terms of speed.
A big problem with reviews of the 6a (including this one) is that they all tested out the phone in airplane mode+Wi-Fi…
It’s kind of a pointless test because no one uses the phone in such setting. Also the main problem with the recent Pixel lineups is that the phones overheats really badly when using 5g radio/data.
Try running the same tests again but this time use 5g radio/data and you’ll see exactly what I am talking about.
This is also why 6a reviews out there are so polarizing and divided
My Pixel 6 doesn't heat up and I watch TH-cam game and stream movies all day and night haven't had any heating issues
Great comparison video, better than a lot of more "experienced" reviewers on TH-cam. Please do more in future!
Very interesting to see the battery life tests (+ heat).. I currently have the Pro and regularly get 7.5+ hours of SoT in a low signal area but on home WiFi all day) - I can also stretch it out if I use lower brightness and 60hz too (and even more if I lower CPU clock speeds though I rarely do that as there's no need).
Thanks for the comment, Is it rooted?
@@IDTR yeah, I'm rooted ☺️
That's a different story, you have much more control, glad you get that much of SOT
But hey the wireless charging that degrade battery way more and the 120hrz takes a big hit on battery. So now ask u urself are those 2 things so important? 🤔
some reviewers dont do battery tests that repersent real world usage like you do, thanks!
Shocking result
Is it possible to get motion mode in pixel 6a using any gcam. any possibility?
Hopefully someone will create a mod soon
I prefer to wait to see what the next flagships offer or to purchase the Pixel 5 secondhand. I wasn't a fan of the Pixel 6 series and kept using my 4 XL which has held up nicely. Since my 4 XL will get Android 13, I may even wait another year for the Pixel 8 if the 7 isn't what I'm wanting either.
Your video very nice 😘
Can you compare pixel 5 vs pixel 6a
