  • Google Pixel 6a: First 10 Things To Do!!! | Tips & Tricks
    I wanted to make a video for everyone out there that might be getting their first Pixel device. In this video I show you the first 10 things you should do when you get the Google Pixel 6a. Please let me know if you have any other things you do.
    Google Pixel 6a
    Google Pixel 6a adapts to you; it’s super fast and secure and powered by Google Tensor, the first chip designed by Google just for Pixel
    Unlocked Android 5G phone gives you the flexibility to change carriers and choose your own data plan[1]; works with Google Fi, Verizon, T-Mobile, AT&T, and other major carriers
    Pixel’s fast-charging all-day battery adapts to you and saves power for the apps you use most[2]
    Take amazing photos with Pixel’s 12 megapixel camera and tools like Magic Eraser[3], Motion Mode, and Portrait Mode
    With Google Tensor, your phone launches apps fast, pages and images load quickly, and everything runs smoothly
    When you plug it in, Pixel 6a charges super fast[4]; with just a few minutes of charging, your phone gets hours of power (adapters sold separately)
    Live Translate helps you translate live video captions, private chats, and messages, and signs in up to 55 languages right on your cell phone[5]
    With IP67 protection, Pixel 6a can take a little water and dust[7], so you can take it almost anywhere you go
    Privacy and security are built in to your phone; the Titan M2 chip and the Google Tensor security core add an extra layer of hardware security to help make your Pixel phone more resilient to attacks[8]
    Please refer to the product description section below for all applicable legal disclaimers denoted by the bracketed numbers in the preceding bullet points (e.g., [1], [2], etc.)

    Finally got my 6a, setup and everything is great. We are trying to get used to this platform coming from Samsung since the S5. However already I love the feel and look, but like you say its like glass, it slips and slides all over the pocket and anything except my hand. Got ur recommended case coming to summarize. lol

    Always on display uses a lot of battery so take that into consideration when deciding if you want to use it. Personally, I used it for the first couple of weeks and then turned it off. Made a huge difference in battery life

    I just Bought my Pixel 6a second hand to use as a Business phone and I'm seriously impressed with this phone, my personal phone is a Iphone 14 pro max and I honestly like the pixel a lot more it's less restricted on applications but still just as secure as the iphone, this is just my opinion but the photo quality seems to be better and clearer than apple , the UI and software is a lot smoother and works a lot better than iOS, I have no complaints at all for the pixel 6a it's an amazing phone to use, in fact it's such a good phone I'm seriously thinking about ditching apple and going Pixel all the way.

    Thanks for the video. Sorry to disappoint you, but I like the 3 buttons. I found the swipe-motions to be inexact.
    Plus the button is more motion efficient.
    Try it. With the swipe motion, it's two steps; 1) Touch, 2) Swipe
    With Buttons, it's one step motion: `1) Touch
    Sometimes, newer isn't always better.

      @V1Salvo 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I’m used to gestures because I use an iphone, so for me I prefer the swipe motion. I find the 3 buttons take up too much space. I like more minimalistic.

      Make sure your System is up to date. When I got my Pixel 6A a couple of days ago, I did not have adaptive sound either. I then found out I did not have the latest updates downloaded on my Pixel 6A and after I downloaded them, adaptive sound was there.

      @@goodnoodles488 Maybe the overheating in the video calls will be addressed in the next update.
      Also, the first week you use the Pixel 6A, the battery learns how you use the phone (adaptive battery) under battery in Settings and after it learns your habits on how you use the phone, the battery lasts a lot longer. I am getting about 12 hours a day but I have not made any video calls.
