$500 is not a budget phone but $2-250 seems budget😅😅
u right im waiting the price get lower so it can be a better option. 500 IS a lot
Great Video man! Love the dedication and the passion behind your videos! Keep it up! 😎
I don't think people are wrong, i think its just too expensive.
This phone will be $375-ish this holiday season. That's a more reasonable price point.
Base price Maybe. I played 350,- euro for it just last week. Great price
Where did you find it for just €350?
My biggest issue with the 8a is the $499 price. Pixel A series phones are known for their value and I just feel like if it had been $399 it would’ve been an excellent phone. Maybe $449 since Google often puts their phones on sale. I definitely like the 8a for the plastic matte back, flat camera bar and that sharp aloe color. I’m a huge Pixel fan but Google has to stop this trend of increasing the A series prices each year because it diminishes the value of them being budget phones.
@@rangerkayla8824 I agree $349 would be a fair price $399 at most. That way there’s a $300-350 difference between the 8 and the 8a. Making it an excellent budget Pixel. My guess is in a few months for the holidays it’ll drop to $399.
Yes but google always has sales going on, in the next few months price will drop and you can buy it for cheaper
Great Video dude, i'm from canada myself and got a pixel 8a .. still waiting on it, should get it by Sunday, Yeah you are right about how it is quite pricey for the pixel 8...its why i just got the pixeal 8a .... i owned the 4a and 6a in the past and love it .. i gave the 4a to m brother and the 6a to my mother and they both still use it.... I currently have a Iphone 14 and its a lovely device, but I use Linux a lot and what sucks about iphones is that it work mainly for macOS or Windows and on Linux you cant really sync music on it or anything I know of... I prefer a Pixel device aka android they can b e mount great on linux and also I just like it better.
Instead of buying a Pixel 8, buy yourself a Pixel 8a and a pair of Pixel Buds Pro for the same price.
That actually makes sense, until the price of the 8 drops at least
Pixel 8 selling at 50 bucks more😂😂 I would get a better phone instead
😎 A very exhuberatant video ! Thanks for a real world perspective. I've got a Pixel 6a and will probably hold out for a black friday 9a [ do you Canadians really know what that means .. ? ie. the day after USA Columbus day ? 😛]. Cheers !
lucky to have a 20 plus weather and calling it summer , here in India its 43 now and the summer peak is yet to arrive . phones heat as crazy be it any device!!
where can i found theses wallpapers?
You took an L when you almost took off that fleece then put it back on 😎
LMAOAOAOAOA IT WAS SO HOT but then i was like NAW I don’t wanna carry it around
I like your videos especially your honesty in the ' A Day in the life with x smartphone'.
But to my taste the music in this vid is too load. It's come to a point where I have to decide to focus on the background music or your speaking.
Nonetheless keep it up. Gonna head to your 'A Day in the life with the S24' now
since i really like using AOD on my galaxy watch 4, i sometimes have to use reverse wireless charging for longer days
In the States, you can pick up an 8a for USD $200 if you stay on Google Fi for 120 days. I've been on Fi for 4 years now. The service is very good, and the coverage is great since Fi uses the T-Mobile network. It would be silly not to pick one up for $200.
Great review i got mines in bay 😊
Yessssss the best colour!!! 😍
Amazing video!
I use RWC all the time on my galaxy. When im at work I'll charge my headphones or watch on it if they need a top up
Still using my pixel 6a
Just traded mine in for the 8a!
my next phone but I am in africa so big upgrade
@@genzboomer-sv3pl I don't get it. What Africa has to do with your phone?
@@guitarizard it's an African thing
I was on a 5a. Still going strong, but the screen began to separate from the body.
Thanks for listening to your fans I appreciate you did that I loved the video 😎 you probably know me well by now I'm a regular commentor 🤣😂 I like you tubers who reply to the fans that's why I'm getting my friends to subscribe as well
Hehe thank you so much for always supporting! 😁
@@Gadgetsu my pleasure man you can always count on me supporting your channel till I die hoping to meet you someday
I got the Pixel 8a in Aloe and it's an amazing phone.
Let’s gooooooooo!!! Honestly it’s so close to experience with the Pixel 8 I can’t even tell!
@@Gadgetsu Same! Both my sister in law and brother in law have the Pixel 8 and it's like the EXACT same phone, but $200 cheaper
Yep. The Pixel 8 is actually a worse value in my opinion. @@cherylsgadgetgalaxy
Obsidian it's good to me
great video!
With Mint Mobile you can get an 8a and 12 months of service for less than $500 on their deals section! Depends on your area’s coverage but that’s a pretty decent deal!
😎😎😎😎 amazing video as always!
Can't wait for the Day in the Life with the Pixel 🎉
Hehe thank you so much! Gonna be filming it either tomorrow or Thursday! 😁
I've had the Pixel 6 since launch and have never once used reverse charging.
In the UK the pixel 8 has been as low as 500 pound and the pixel 8a was released at 500 pound,however the contract deals are really good for the pixel 8a,for instance I got my pixel 8a for free with a twenty pound per month contract for 24 months with 100gb of data and unlimited minutes and texts,the sim only contract is 10 a month so the extra 10 a month works out at 240 for the pixel 8a,which is less than half retail and 240 is budget phone money.Then again you can buy a good condition used Samsung galaxy s22 ultra for 270 or a brand new Samsung A55 with Samsung buds FE for 260.It’s only iPhones that cost ridiculous amounts of money here in the UK.
I love my light blue pixel 7a. Such a nice devices!
I have never ever used reverse wireless charging on my s23 ultra! 🕶️😎😎😎
Yaaaaa same! Thanks for watching! 😎😎😎
😎 Waiting for the Day in Life video.
Filming either tomorrow or the day after! 😎😎😎
I’m liking the 8a more than my iPhone 11, it’s smaller, newer, n they have it in blue lol, if I see it on sale I may pick it up 😊
Cool video mate 😎
Thanks bro! 😎😎😎
I'm missing the Google UI. I switched to the S24, it's so laggy
would love to see videos about your watches
The phone seems like a cool phone overall
The bezels are not as big a deal as youtubers making it out to be either
😎
in germany the price difference is just 50€ to 70€
I just hope there is a Pixel 9a with faster 20-27W charging (it would be the perfect Pixel), because the Pixel 8a makes the prospect of any future A-series devices look like a waste of resources for Google. I hope they don't end the A-series with this device and its measly 18W charging, which isn't going to age well for consumers in the long run.
To be clear, I don't want the Pixel A series line to end, but the jump to a 120hz display feels like they skipped over an incremental update of faster charging.
😎 I actually think reverse wireless charging is amazing!
Ayyyy wasssup! Yaaaaa it’s cool! I just need to remember it exists 😂😂😂😎😎😎
Hello Brian/Fenson’s biggest fan
That is clean!
Reverse wireless charging is good for showing your girlfriend who uses an iPhone that your phone has more party tricks then hers
That's it that's all
LMAOAOAOOOAAOAOOAOAOA 😂😂😂
It’s ok phone just flagship price is to much…. Time will tell. Tipping ppl will say heat this that
Under 1 hour gang
Let’s gooooo 😎😎😎
@@Gadgetsu i am a huge fan
@@Gadgetsuone of your other videos has convinced me to order the s24 ultra
2015 bezels, gorilla glass 3, Exynos (sorry, Tensor), poor battery life and finger print sensor, slow charging for $500? No thanks. Pixels are a lottery in hardware and software.
I was _so_ looking forward to upgrading from my 6a, which I love. I almost pre-ordered, as we have a really great Trade In deal, in the UK. However, I'm glad I didn't. I tried one last week, in a shop and found the corners to bulge/protrude out. Not only can you see this, but you can _feel_ it too and it's just weird. A case might make it look/feel even worse.
And no, I'm not "hating" on it.......I do wish people wouldn't use that expression.
It just doesn't appeal to me.
So, I'm thinking of waiting (even though I'm not a fan of glass backs) for the 8 to drop in price and go for that instead.......and looking at the 9's that hideous looking Camera Island doesn't do it for me, either.
So, it's either stick with the 6a, or go for the 8!
Stop looking for a pixel at this price and go with one plus 12R for the same price it's literally a "duh" moment
The problem is the price, 549 euros for this is non sence
its gonna be on sale a lot so realistically, expect 449 or 400 euros from time to time, makes this phone so much better also this phone has 7 years of updates, name me another brand that does the same in that price point?
@@MNM2884nick you can't sale a phone for 549 when the pixel 8 is now at 600 euros in some market................that's crazy people better ad 50 euros and get the pixel 8
Google strategy is ridiculous
Absolutely true. Glass back tend to scratch easily. This happened to my P8 despite me using a case. Do no where it come from😎
I got the PIxel 8a a week ago, I love it. Here in Serbia, the price difference between 8 and 8a was a mere 50 euros. Still, I opted for this budget phone on purpose. I wanted to see how it performs.
When it comes to people complaining, I think that people forget that premium phones are twice the price of Pixel 8a. When it comes to other competitors, nobody can match this much value in my experience, as the software definitely adds a massive value to it. I'll probably upgrade to the Pixel 10 pro in a couple of years, until then, I'll keep testing this phone.
When you mention pricing in different markets, here, the Samsung Galaxy a55 is the same price as Pixel 8a. As someone who was using a54 from last year, which also cost the same amount of money, the Pixel experience is so much better right out of the box.
The biggest benefit of owning a Pixel 8a at this price point is having an amazing camera (no other phone around $500 compares to it) + 7 years of support is a huge value, as this is going to be one of the devices that receive new Android versions regularly. On SoC side, you basically get the same experience from the premium lineup.
Great review by the way, you now have one more subscriber :)
great u mentioned ur pov!
a54/55 is a thing in Brazil RN based on it's economy. Google's A series seems to be more durable, consistent and it gives more "flagship" experience above samsungs's.
oneui in series a is not that fluid and great
7 years of updates increases the phone's value of pixel i like that. i'll wait pixel8a get lowr just so i can see whats best for me
thank u for your coment
Still use my Pixel 6 pro 😉 maybe it's time buying a new one
I really like that phone as I never had a curved screen device
The only thing stopping me is the screen brightness
Maybe I'll just grab it when the 9 drops just because
Waiting for the day in a life ❤ 😎 👍
Coming from a Xiaomi user, I was so excited to finally get rid of Xiaomi (multiple reasons, most having to do with the OS), I am SO disappointed with the Pixel 8a. It's so expensive for what is 'offering'. The only things slightly better are the lack of bloatware, a bit faster, brighter screen and better camera(only in the dark and it's hit and miss, the Xiaomi camera is way way better during daytime, especially the selfie camera). I am annoyed everytime I pick up this awful phone. I'm annoyed I wasted so much hard earned money on this shit phone. Fuck Google, I'm never buying anything from them again. What a disappointment. And I don't even understand how so many people have good things to say about this phone, especially about the pictures, are they incapable of zooming in??? It's so pixelated and lacks detail.
tbh its a laggy phone
Did you try turning on 120hz? Or is it laggy as in like the system is lagging? Never had that issue on my Pixels yet 😅
@@Gadgetsu yea minor system lagg, like on the exynos 2200 s22u. but anywhere
Man, stop lying
😎
😎😎😎
the battery life is also better on the 8a and it costs less on contract.
I think you might be right about that! A week in and I'm kinda impressed by the battery on the Pixel 8a and it does seem to last longer than the Pixel 8 from memory! And yaaaa, especially on contract too that's another big point! Plus more expensive phones require bigger plans too so I should definitely say in that in my full review! Thanks for the input and watching! 😁
I love my pixel 8a
😊
its case-ology. not casey-ology. lol
😎😎😎
🕶️
😎😁
I just got my pixel 8a and I think it's perfect.
Please do not buy this expensive poor quality Pixel 8a with poor battery life. Google is hopeless providing resolution.
that cases look horrible
8a is out, 8 is better😂😂😂
Hiii
HAIAIAIAIAI
I'm real 😎😎😎😎😎
Isn't 8a supposed to be midrange pixel with midrange price segment lmao stop being picel fanboi and use some brain rather misleading your viewer's
Ideal budget phone..🤷🏽♂️
Honestly! There’s nothing wrong about the phone and especially when it goes on sale, it’s gonna be a STEAL!
With inflation crappy phones that were once under 150 are now 250 to 300. Good budget phones are going for 350-500. Welcome to this economy
