Google Pixel 8a Unboxing! In this video, we cover the Google Pixel 8a in this first impressions video with the intentions of giving you a first look and details! Share your questions, thoughts, comments, and enjoy the content 😀
Hey man i need some advice, should i get the pixel 8a or the iphone 13? - the iphone can last till 2028-2029, the pixel can last till 2030 - I dont own an ecosystem of devices so it doesnt matter.
@@KoalaBeer.Same 😂 but wait next year pixel 10 series comes with iphone chip manufacturing 3nm TSMC chips. More efficient, more battery health expect.
Nintendo will hate me but the Samsung Galaxy S10 E 4GLTE snapdragon 855 smartphone with 6GB of RAM and virtual RAM memory expansion is absolutely insanity the phone can run switch games I surprisingly got Pokemon let's go Pikachu to run solid 30fps with upscale of 1080P with more vibrant colours
Its $399 with activation on carriers, it will get reduced soon! Pixel A series always gets discounts later on. Apple iPhone SE is $400+ with taxes and has archaic feel.
I picked up the Pixel 7a last year on a sweet carrier deal here in Portugal for only 310€. This time the 8a has some even better deals 210€ for the 128gbs and 270€ for the 256gbs..
@@TheBNCoutinho I mean I got my 15 Pro Max for $300 on carrier deal, it’s a vastly superior phone for about the same price. The difference is in about 6 months, the 8a will be basically worthless unless you trade it in for another Pixel. Can’t resale it, no one wants them.
I could get this for $95 overall with some trade in and discounts plus gift card at a particular retailer. I have a 7 so it's a bit of a downgrade but I don't need all the latest bells and whistles. Just looking for smaller form factor and longer support cycle plus that BLUE! What do you think?
tbh if they made it a 120hz ltpo oled display smaller bezels like on the base pixel 8 and slightly better battery and made the price 349-449$ and released the phone with the pixel 8 and 8 pro it couldve sold betterand. Been better
Wonder why Pixel phones don't sell well a flagship phone at a mid range price especially when you take advantage of carrier deals. Seems a bargain to me.
@@nickackermanchannel It's not like people expect edge to edge, but let''s be real those are really huge, to the point that even a 100$ motorola has smaller bezels, that's not okay at this price point.
Pixels are allegedly made from recycled Samsung Galaxy smartphones so they are cheap looking. Google only contributes 7% the other 93% is Samsung in the making of Pixel phones.
People are complaining about the bezels, meanwhile the real issue is the 18 watts charging speed. Nothing should be less than at least 30 watts in 2024.
With a trade in plus carrier discount and best buy $100 gift card, the cost would be around $95 for me. Do you think at that point it is worth it? I have a Pixel 7 so a bit of a downgrade but I really want a smaller phone and longer support cycle. Plus I'm weak to Blue. What do you think?
Dude no one complained when apples phones had the same size bezel. Even though they were the only company with big bezels on their flagship phones. This is a midrange phone what do you expect? And it's not that distracting you just want something to complain about
Hi,I am a great fan of the work you do here in all your videos you make.I love you bruh. By the way I am Nigerian in the center of Nigeria (ABUJA).I have always wished to own a Samsung flagship phone which would be a breakthrough in the aspect of communication and sophisticated performance of technology in general.I just do hope that one day my wish would come to pass

@jonstrider8380 I'd get an iPhone 13 it might hold it's value better in the future.
That blue is beautiful. Best blue phone I've ever seen.
Yeah that Blue is Nice
OP 7 pro is still the nicest looking phone imo
Makes me want it for colour 😂😂
@@KoalaBeer.Same 😂 but wait next year pixel 10 series comes with iphone chip manufacturing 3nm TSMC chips. More efficient, more battery health expect.
@@sib1212 stinky feet?
Cant wait to scoop it up on sale.
It's on sale for $250 on Google-Fi. After shipping and taxes I paid $316.
That color is epic 👌🏾💙
Here in Norway I can get the 8a incl buds a for about $500. The 8 is $820. I guess the 8a will give most value?

Waiting for pixel 9a
Finally wait end here❤
Those bezels tho 💀💀💀
Yeah my galaxy a54 has better bezels lol
@@FlintG They look like they came out straight from 2018 iPhone XR
The cheapest Motorola is less than 1/3 the price and has smaller bezels.
It's bezelicious!
Stop 😂 . Srsly
Hey Nick, What Video Editor Do You Use?
Nice video ❤❤
I got obsidian it's all I had for options. But still nice. I would've liked any other color lol I still love this phone ❤
Looking to get this phone soon and your review has been really helpful! Will you be doing any updates since your purchase?
I have already did another video on this phone!
$499? For that? With Pixel 8 costing a bit more, Google shot themselves in the foot. $399 would’ve been the mark, but greed took over apparently.
Its $399 with activation on carriers, it will get reduced soon! Pixel A series always gets discounts later on. Apple iPhone SE is $400+ with taxes and has archaic feel.
Wait for a month it will sell for 349 lol

@@nickackermanchannelnot everybody lives in the US here will probably be 550€ i was excited to get it but for couple 50€ more can get S23 Ultra

The smaller form factor is what I like most and the shape, I think that's not a bad move if you can deal with the less premium experience
@@nickackermanchannelagreed!
It won't be a downgrade, trust me.
bro got so mad at 6:09 lol
I love compact phones 📱❤
peace, thinking of getting a family nethe 8a I'm on 8 pro s waiting for the ⁹ pro myself lol
thanks for the video
Bro plz change your table's color to grey or black.. ✅️ white is distracting🥲
BTW love from India ❤
Get 5000 likes and I will consider it
@@nickackermanchannel haha bro you think that my comment will reach 5000 likes🤣🥲
@@nickackermanchannelI agree. I can't watch your videos at night because the table is blinding, I'm team dark mode all day
This should be compared first to its predecessor i.e. pixel 7A...

You're asking a bit much for that price then there would be no reason to have a smaller Pixel 8
So you want basically a pixel 8 with a plastic back and want them to discount it like 350 dollars? That's a bit much.
I like that blue! But, I'm knee deep in the Samsung ecosystem. Phone, tablet, watch, and buds.
Same here a really vibrant blue
Take the steps to get away from Samsung. It's night and day with how much better stock android runs.
@cowbatboots282 I hated touch wiz, but one UI is pretty great.
@@jdneilso yeah it’s not terrible haha.
I like the color ways, the aloe and the bay blue....but that price is asking way too much.
If you buy it through Google-Fi it's only $250. I paid a total of $316 after shipping and taxes. :D
First !

This phone looks really elegant.😊🙂❤
It's quite pretty phone I would say especially compared to the square looking 7A
@@nickackermanchannelsquare is old now
Lol.
Waiting for new Pixel line up speed test with iPhones. Specialy with 3rd party apps 🙃
Sad thing is smartphones with more RAM is much more powerful than the current switch and switch lite so sad
Is it a toaster then? Battery ? Samsung foundry 😮
Iphone x review ios16 2024 😌 🙏🏼
Bezels and design like old iPhone 11
Those bezels are awful. This phone deserves to flop to let Google know that it's unacceptable for such budget level design in 2024.
Why do you expect edge to edge bezels on an A series? This phone price is going to drop soon
I’m sure most people buying this phone at this price cares about that. Leave the bezeless design to us enthusiasts
@@nickackermanchannel It's not like people expect edge to edge, but let''s be real those are really huge, to the point that even a 100$ motorola has smaller bezels, that's not okay at this price point.
Don't look cheap look at the screen
Nothing Phone 2a vs Google Pixel 8a
Sounds like a reasonable comparison
Bezels so similar to iPhone XR 😅
They are lol
They look so cheap...
You can always use phone case, and the software is awesome, I'm selling my iphone 13 to get it!
Pixels are allegedly made from recycled Samsung Galaxy smartphones so they are cheap looking. Google only contributes 7% the other 93% is Samsung in the making of Pixel phones.
Lies@@jevonsims900
Mfw the budget phone is cheap 😱😱😱
I got this for free from t mobile but they don't have other colors besides black so I didn't have any choice but get the black
Ma pixel 4 > that a
I'm just waiting for pixel 10 series with tsmc chips next year.
It took a while for me to decide between bay and aloe. Settled for aloe.
People are complaining about the bezels, meanwhile the real issue is the 18 watts charging speed. Nothing should be less than at least 30 watts in 2024.
They have to cut costs somewhere to get the price down
People also complaining about heating and writing speed that is close to UFS 2.2 not 3.1
Really nice device better than A55 , because flagship chipset , better update software and better’s camera
The blue is nice 💙
Apparently heat and lag issues already. Thats deal breaker.
Will need to check this
There aren't any heat or lagging issues.
Bezels are so big.. do you think the phone is worth the price?
I think it's worth about $450 so slightly overpriced, I would try to get a discount with a trade-in or wait for it to get discounted soon
@@nickackermanchannel thank you so much. But I see the connectivity issue on pixel phones. Do you see or experience this?

@@arunsannakki6677there aren't connectivity issues. That's a service provider issue.

Make a speed test with Samsung A55 5g
We want speed test comparison between ipad pro M2 and M4😊
The device design is nice and its color is attractive
