Google’s Pixel 6a: The best mid-range phone?

[@ZandaKristy]

What's with the thumping sound at the beginning and end of the review? It wasn't music and just made it difficult to hear what was being said until it suddenly stopped.

[@RogueHetero]

I can listen to you review phones all day man. Good stuff one of my favorite reviewers. The single rogue beard hair as driving me nuts tho lmao really considering making the switch back to pixel

[@TshakaArmstrong]

The pain of being a one man band. The hair drove me nuts too.😢🤣

[@RogueHetero]

@@TshakaArmstrong only a little distracting no biggie tho 😂

[@junky32]

I hav a iPhone Se 3rd gen and a pixel 6 a. Low key powerhouses

[@robh_uk]

Any chance of lowering the background music, couldn't get through more than a minute of this.

[@TshakaArmstrong]

Music stops @2:45

[@darylbhall]

I totally agree, most people don't want to switch between iOS and Android, very refreshing to hear. Do you think the 6a has solved the connectivity and overheating issues from the 6/6 Pro, and is there any indication the 7 Pro will be a great flagship phone?

[@TshakaArmstrong]

Don't know about the 7 Pro yet. I'm going to drop a gaming video which includes how the 6a handles heat, so we'll address that more directly. In my day-to-day, it's been fine. It does heat up a bit during 30 minute or longer gaming sessions.

[@batmantheemo9546]

is 6gb of ram enough for a moderate user ? . and will it be enough 3 years down the line

[@johnb8153]

Going to wait for the Pixel 7. I hear, like the 6 & 6 Pro, the 6a may have similar heating issues, and similar meh signal strength. Maybe those initial issues will get better with the June security patch that is rolling out. Since the 7 and 7 Pro are most likely coming out in a couple of months, and my 3 yr old phone is still running fine, I'll wait and look for Black Friday deals.

[@jtec99]

Do you find the cameras render realistic skin tone as well as the reg 6 and 6 pro do. In reference to POC

[@TshakaArmstrong]

Need more time and variety of skin tones but I've been happy with the front facing shooter so far.

excellent informative presentation

Hate clear cases they get yellow in 2 weeks.... Get the official Google Case trust me. I spent a bunch of money on cases

[@infg0753]

Don't...I bought the sage Google case for my 6 Pro and it looked like garbage after a month. I got a new clear case from Spigen and it still looks great (no yellowing as I've seen with prior phones).

[@taherk1320]

Just buy spigen case for pixel, it's really good.

[@johnb8153]

I'm waiting for the Pixel 7. Rumor is that they found a flip-case magnet listed in the build for it.

[@EseJandro]

Poetic's clear cases don't get yellow I've used it for two years ok my pixel 4a

[@pauljericklara3865]

Uh, no. The google cases are weak and mine's already deformed due to thermal issues with the Pixel 6.

[@fatimahkyeyune7476]

Need tablet 13 how can I access you people

[@Foirelle]

I ended up wrecking my old Pixel XL (og model) by dropping it in the toilet at work yesterday accidentally (forgot it was in my back pocket, oops). Not too big of a deal because it was definitely showing its age lol. Anyway, I was comparing the Pixel 6a and the Samsung Galaxy A53 phones due to their similar price ranges when I came across your videos for both of them. Which would you recommend for someone who plays a lot of mobile games, wants reliable speakers and microphone, and likes taking pictures/using the camera fairly frequently? Any input is greatly appreciated. :)

[@vinaykumar-mi2vs]

1. pixel 6a having unreliable fingerprint scanner, even unregistered thumb also can unlock the device, what a pretty security by google 2. Heating issues even in normal use 3. Over priced in india 4. Worst maintenance by google in india

[@MarkCucchiara]

So don't buy it

[@DavidNgo86]

Pixel is barebones Android lol

[@chitrarth]

No mention of it unlocking with unregistered fingers on certain units🙄

[@TshakaArmstrong]

And that’s the tough part about producing video as opposed to written stories. I only recently became aware of this bug AFTER the video was finished and submitted. It is something I’m watching now and depending on where the issue goes, we’ll look at putting out a Short, or some vid on our social channels.

[@chitrarth]

@@TshakaArmstrong thanks a lot for acknowledging

[@TshakaArmstrong]

@@chitrarth Thank YOU for watching and for commenting respectfully. I’m here for y’all! 🙏🏾

[@RJ_Uploads]

And every brand has our have had there issues similar to this, Samsung is one of them, but no mention of them like how people go after Google pixel phones... 🤫

[@7techno77]

Mine will unlock with opposite thumb sometimes but none of my other fingers work. I expect this be fixed in ota. We'll see

[@sunnysunny501]

God. The background sound. Unwatchable

[@explained4242]

Watch this video on 1.25x speed. It’s much better that way.

Do I sound like a chipmunk at that speed? That could be fun.🐿️

No, the samsung A52 5g is still the best mid ranger.

[@everything_huawei_pro4743]

HUAWEI Easy kill it

[@megadeth8592]

Lmao nah

[@matthieu175]

you cannot compare mid range phones that do not have the same size. A52 is way bigger than P6a, some people do not want a brick in their hands (btw P6a is quite big as a "compact" phone)

Try cleaning out your ears. The rest of us have no problem understanding Tshaka.

[@MashalQamar]

@@RogueHetero how about you stop being rude and let a suggestion be a suggestion? Everyone has different hearing preferences. Some people like bass some don't some like more mids some don't, everyone hears a bit differently not everyone is the same.

[@TshakaArmstrong]

@@MashalQamar your response to that fella is interesting. You make the point that EVERYONE has different listening preferences, and yet, based on your single comment you’d like my employment altered. You weren’t also being rude or self-centered? A bit hypocritical, maybe? 🤔
