PIXEL 8A - 6 MONTHS LATER

[@paulcathcart7896]

Dude you went AWOL for so long I found you on a milk carton.

It's funny to think 400$ used to be flagship territory but a few years later 330$ is clearly budget. Now sub 500$ is budget, 500$ to 1000$ mid-range, 1000$ to 2000$ flagship, 2000+$ foldable/tri-fold/luxury phones. And all that while the new generation of phone add nothing new, it's just a status symbol. Buy the 8a if you don't mind looking poor, it's a great phone that got those thick bezels to remind people where you come from. :)

I bought one for Mom a couple months ago, so I could grab her a 256 GB phone. It wasn't on super sale like it is now, but it was still a great deal! I have to say that after years of hearing people be down on the optical finger print scanner, I have had no issue since the Pixel 7. The sensor on the 6 was bad, but both the 7 and the 8 were great for me. I think reviewers don't like optical b/c you have to press for a fraction of a second vs tapping like you do with an ultrasonic sensor.

yo you're back finally

[@GarytheDean]

Pixel 8a is $679 CAD, definitely not as good value here unfortunately

[@DetectiveAidano]

Bro it’s $900 AUD😭 in Australia.

[@unpreeable]

whats a "phodo"?

[@jevonsims900]

Knowing Google they already have the Pixel 9A ready to go they're just waiting for an official iPhone SE 4 release date and price.

The fingerprint reader on my Pixel 8 recognises my left thumb, but not my right. It also has the same problem my Pixel 6 had. An unknown number calls me and there is no option for the Google assistant call screening. The feature isn't there nor is it in the settings. The other problem is the voice to text. I swear that Google assistant speaks english as a third language or is illiterate, yet if i use my limited spanish phrases, it gets it perfect.

[@iHernandez620]

I have the same issue with my pixel 7pro. But my pixel 6a works all the time

[@krtkks]

Great video man

[@cobaltblue5523]

I would recommend a used pixel 7 or a used pixel 8 instead i would be cheaper depending on which country you are in

[@miccakoster3838]

I stopped using fingerprint scanner

[@iHernandez620]

I cant wait for the 9a

[@passivevii4052]

I still dont like the A models its too small and thats just a huge no

[@moamenkhalf7081]

We very annoyingly would get with the 1hr 20 mins of the pixel 8/8pro but 2 hours is just hell

[@C.JPhotography]

Got mine for 450usd for the 256gb Love it

[@paulalex9428]

i know at this point this phone got much more hate that it was necessary and i really like this phone. it is very nice, reminds me of the iphone 11 BUT at this price range just go for the Iphone 12 or 13, even if you are an android fan. just trust me on this one, those are the absolute best phones in this price category and i really am not an apple fanboy im just stating facts it is MILES better than this phone. Im sorry but this phone really has no place in the current market unless you are a pixel phone superfan, but just know that you are not spending your money right...

[@Messy_Marv]

The Pixel 8A is the last true Pixel. Now Google is copying Apple. BTW the screen is not flat. It's 2.5 D curved. Protectors do not cover the whole screen.

[@RlTCHlEJANSSEN]

Yeah this is 500 euro so hardly “budget” for 20 eu more you can get a iphone 13 here so thats a no brainer compared to the pixel.

[@shoddysingh7026]

This is a midrange where I'm from

[@lukecousin]

Got mine for an equivalent of 390USD so I'd say it's a great deal

[@jhaysoncarter1900]

Pixel phones I got a pixel 6 lets just say I'm not making that mistake again The heat is unbearable 40°C just watching youtube on my device

[@isaacyaw2340]

💯

[@samven582]

phone is trash

[@moamenkhalf7081]

No one will wait 2 hrs for the 8a to charge from 0 to 100%

[@andrepower6]

Ever heard of changing overnight

[@Messy_Marv]

You're wrong. Millions of people do.

[@iskanderbouziane3300]

350 isnt budge

[@Kuttapanhere]

Midrange*

[@bresoccercards6461]

You do know there are better Chinese phones.

[@rafscindaydreamer5616]

Poco has the best budget phone out there..google is a waste

[@christlover2877]

Pixel is a shitphone. No good battery life. It's only being hyped because it is from USA. Try Oneplus 12R. That's a great bang for buck phone. I miss Huawei.

[@andrepower6]

@@christlover2877 it's not even on the same price range...

[@lazyrider6918]

Well, I work all day on my 8a calling patients, using GPS all day, handling personal finance/stock trades, etc. as I am an adult with a job and not playing video games all day. And I still have 35% at end of day with up to 6-8 hours screen on time on some days. Not sure what you are talking about. Not to mention that I almost guarantee my 8a takes consistently better pictures than the Oneplus.
