When it says Pixel 6a only, does than mean you're just getting the device without the charger manual etc, or it means no accessories like case or whatever preorders got etc.
@Brian Pawlak oh wow tysm. I actually went and got the 7 unfortunately. Never preordering again bc 300 for the 6a is insane DX
Portland, JAMAICA in the Building!!!
I'm currently shopping a used phone around $200 and am pretty much set on the Pixel 6 series. My question to you is, with their used prices being so close, like 6a around $190 and the 6 Pro being as low as $230, would you say that the 6a is still the way to go even with the prices being so close? I really like the smaller form factor and honestly prefer the plastic back. But would obviously enjoy the Pro's camera system.
Pretty much agree with this, its the law of diminishing returns, and phones like the 6a hit the sweet spot. I think that now Pixels are up there with Apple and Samsung in terms of the overall polish and features. Got my official seafoam green (for my sage 6a) recycled plastic 6a case today and it is very nice too, not too tacky like my old samsung soft touch silcone case was. And the translucent looks really good
before u buy pixel 6a here atleast 10 different between 6a and 6.
1-size screen 6.1 vs 6.4 more inc better visual
2-battery 4400 vs 4600
3-smooth display 60hz vs 90hz
4-camera 12mp vs 50mp
5-fast charging 18watt vs 30 watt
6-ip67 vs ip 68 water and dust resistant
7-lcd gorilla glass victos vs gorilla glass 5
8-back cover gorilla glass 6 vs plastic
9-wireless charging 20 watt vs no wireless charging
10-6gb ram vs 8gb ram
for me go for pixel 6.too many upgrade then pixel 6a ..unless u want small and light phone.thats only u go for 6a.
Awesome video man. You convinced me to upgrade to either second hand and still have great upgrade while paying maybe 250 like the pixel 4xl I'm on for 2 years. I paid 240 in 2020 summer. Mine has hardware issue occasionally but I still managed to get my money worth. I think both of these are great. If I see a pro for 250 which I may have to replace broken back glass I will do that.
Thank you so much for this video , I was waiting for it.
Awesome, just the video I was waiting for!
Awesome! I hope the video helped! Thanks for watching! 😁
Nice review, I have a Pixel 4a5g, was thinking of upgrading so since I am in the Pixel ecosystem (phone and watch... I'm going to check out the 6a. Thank you!
Great review, Really helped me weigh my choices between the two. my pixel 3 is going to be my backup phone now that it's getting Camera ois issues nowadays.
Great video, I still don't understand why people still ponder over the 60 hz, the ui is smooth af, now I have started doubting big time RUclips reviewers
You will understand it when you see that the device is selling for 27k in India during sales and just one week ago it was priced at 44k. I feel pity for the people who bought it for 40k plus INR.
@@sathyaki those are rich people who don't really care ( maybe some exceptions do )
Nice comparison. Getting a Pixel 6A and was confused to choose the one between both of these.
Heya Fenson-sama! It's great to see you as always!!! Among us ftw 😂 . Love the B-ROLL in this video! The 6a definitely offers a lot of value for the money, can't wait to get mine! Awesome video Fenson-sama!!!
Amazing review! Good job done
Thanks for the great review, I'm still waiting for the 6A to drop in price because it costs ~$500 in Eastern Europe.
I have one of these arriving tomorrow. I've wanted a Pixel phone for some time, but something, in each iteration has always put me off. But, not here. I'm pleased that (if there has to be one) that the Camera Bar is "balanced," (hello Apple) and that there'll be no wobbling, although I have a case coming too. Disappointed about the Headphone Jack, but I've invested in a USB set of earphones, as opposed to buds.
I'd lost buds for sure! 😉😉
great video keep it up man!
I'm considering the Pixel 6 or Pixel 6a. Coming from the Pixel 3a, I'd love to stick with the A line. Rather than spending so much on the Pixel 6, I'd rather just spend the extra $150 on Pixel bud A-series, an official case & screen protector and get the pixel 6a
blows my mind everyone threw a fit over the Pixel 6a having a 60hz device, when the newest iPhone 14 STILL has the same 60hz display for, like, double the price and nobody says a thing!
Also I think it's important to consider that the Pixel 6 does not sell for the full $599 anymore. It's down to $499 at places like target as I write this comment. Granted the Pixel 6a is selling for $399 there as well. But that's only a $100 difference, so I dunno, a marginally improved camera, wireless charging, and higher refresh rate seem like a decent value for that. But I think there's room in the market for both!
Right?! Also, in India its selling for just $360. Great Buy imo

Could you make a video were you talk about which phone you are using a why? Would be awesome
great review. thx
Bro i got the pixel 6a because of you... Thank you... Your absolutely right about everything you mentioned. Im pleased. Don't need a 90hz display!
I have seen a lot of reviews on the pixel 6a and i have to be honest, your review is one of the best, most honest and designed for the one who are interested on the phone, and not comparing this phone to something else that costs double.
Less than a month.. "Is pixel 7 better than pixel 6" 😂.. can't wait ur review for pixel 7 series man
And then people will be knocking the pixel 7 saying how bad it is etc and saying the pixel 8 will be the best 😂 I can see it now
Camera features like action pan and long exposure are missing in pixel 6a
How do you set it up to pull down the icons to preview the app like you did at 5:14
Has anyone experienced any issues with 6a while using navigation for a prolonged period?
Good video.
Thanks for bringing up MKBHD. The moment I heard him mention choppy display because of "only" 60Hz I was like "wtf are you talking about. that's how 60hz displays look on Android".
Hey buddy.. i have been an andriod user all my life. However I own Macbook pro for very long time. Which mobile do you suggest? Iphone 13 or Pixel 6A or S22+ ? I am eager to jump over to iphone13, however need suggestions.
I'm a pixel 6 owner , but have never been able to warm to it . If anything I prefer my 4a. Photo wise, there is no discernible difference in photo quality between my 4a and 6 ( without the a) - both take pretty good photos , albeit a little too over processed for my liking ( maybe a future update will fix that ) I don't mind the plastic backs so people shouldn't be put off by that, plastic can be of a high quality . My 4a had good quality plastic back . I would love it if pixels had brighter screens, I don't think 500 nits is good enough nowadays. You don't realize how dim the screen is until you see other phone screens. My pixel 6 is practically unusable outside during bright lighting conditions, even on auto brightness
OMG!!! ANOTHER VID!!!
The only way to unlock the phone is the fingerprint on the display?
Thanks for the video
+rep for talking about current/ minority bugs...subscribed
So Pixel 6 or Samsung s22? Btw thank you for the video!
150$ more for:
1. Gorilla glass victus in front and more premium glass back(gorilla glass 6) compared to plastic back and ancient gorilla glass 3(premium build)
2. IP 68 vs IP 67 ( minor change)
3. HDR 10+ VS HDR (minor change)
4. 8gb ram vs 6gb ram (huge change for longtime users)
5 Better video quality with new sensor Vs 4 years old sensor( huge change for who mostly do videos and vlogs)
6. 30W charge support Vs (18w in 6a) (huge change)
@@rangerkayla8824 most welcome 😊
7. wireless charger
8. 90 Hz vs 60 Hz
Excellent Comparison😀😀😀😀😊
I think I'm going to go all out with pixel 7 Pro, the watch, and the earbuds.
while im looking for 6a ,i got a used pixel 6 for 300 usd . great deal.
Which model should i buy😢
Please answer me,,
What about the Snapchat application, is it the same, with nine pictures like Google pixel 6 ???
A good review, however, you fail to mention the Pixel 6A does not have wireless charging.
For me, and I guess a lot of modern day mobile users, this is a must-have feature.
It seems like the reason for the upgrade is slightly larger screen w/ 90hz, wireless charging, and bigger RAM.
Is google pixel 6a better or samsung s20 fe
Video comparison?
Leaving out wireless charging are we??? I mean, I mostly agree, but that's a clear miss on your comparison...
Mostly follow this guide, luckily I choose the pixel 6 and after several updates, the pixel 6 is clearly better than a 6a now!
The price is pretty close for these two bricks so you can just take what you like.
Xiaomi 12 is the form factor I expected from the 6a. Beautiful phone.
Well deserved video for me personally!! I've thinking of buying a Pixel 6 or a 6a for my wife's birthday. She's well impressed with my Pixel 6 Pro, she's not big tech enthusiastic ☺️ I think a 6a would be the choise. Thanks a lot man ❤️
My Pixel 6 had awful color shift on display and yet no tech youtubers seem to mention this in any reviews.
Sorry to hear about that! My Pixel 6 had it's fair share of problems but no color shifting! Did you end up getting it fixed? Thanks for watching! 😁
Thank you so much for this intelligent, informative vid. I'm still rocking the 3a with no real complaints, other than it's no longer being updated. I will buy a 6a 👍
I watched your video but decided to go with the Pixel 6 over the Pixel 6a. Here's why:
1. 256GB: As I shoot a lot of photos and videos I wanted the larger memory size and opted for 256gb which is not available on Pixel 6a (which offers max 128GB)
2. Pixel 6a uses the cheaper Gorilla Glass 3 (2012 version), instead of Gorilla Glass Victus (2020+), and so the 6a is easier to scratch and break than the 6. I need the more rugged version.
3. 4x the pixel count on main camera. Sometime I take photos of small object in big background such as a bird on a tree, and want as many pixels on the bird as possible for clarity.
4. Wireless Charging. I use wireless chargers and my car and home and just didn't want to downgrade to the Pixel 6a which has no wireless charging.
5. Price: I was able to buy the 256gb Pixel 6 for around $100 more than the 6a which I figure is worth it since I'm getting $100 more features easily.
6a is good. But I wish the software is looking better after a few updates
I got the 6A, then returned it a week later, battery drain was terrible, prob faulty controller. Got the 6Pro last week, loving it, not one issue even fingerr print reader works great. 6A speakers too quiet for my liking, 6 pro, speakers better.
I've heard the battery is shit the first 2 weeks or so and then it suddenly gets better.
@@idkatthispoint-s9s 🤣
what about heating
The pixel 6A doesn't have Spectral and flicker sensor
pixel 6a vs one plus 9 pro???? pleaseeeee
Purchased two pixel 6's for £299 each on black Friday here in the UK. The 6a was £299 aswell so here in the UK the 6 was better value.
The finger print scanner on the 6a works a lot faster!
The screen is decent but do you think google overcut using previous gen camera sensor. If they could have even slightly upgraded the camera hardware I'd pick this without a second thought. Saw some camera comparison with pixel 4a 5g and found out pixel 6a had some overexposure issue in bright daylight. Also read some -ve amazon reviews pointing out about its price not worth its experience.
Video quality also differs between 6 & 6a.
And these "Big tech reviewers" okay with Apple giving 60 hz for 900 freaking dollars
I cant decide whether to get the 6a, the iPhone 13 or just wait for the pixel 7. Any suggestions? I don't care much for the camera or gaming performance
I've never heard some mention an i phone and Pixel in the same sentence😅, I like smaller dimension phones so the pixel 6 seemed just a bit to big, the 6a on paper seemed perfect the refresh and very slight down grade in camera doesn't bother me and having smaller dimensions while offering almost everything else the 6 and 6 pro does. However The one thing that put me off getting the 6a was the slow charge time, 2 hrs to fully charge just doesn't work for me, I am the kinda person who runs a phone down to 1% and then plugs it in 3 times a day to charge for 15 mins. So I'm going to wait for the 7, sits between the 6a and 6 in size so should be OK.
If you don't care about the performance and the camera, there is absolutely no pint in spending more than 300 usd on a smartphone. These are the two things which separates budget phones from midrangers and flagships. You can go for a 250 dollar motorolla if pure software is the only thing you want.
If you don't care about heavy performance and low light pictures much then get the pixel 6a bcz it's compact and easy to use in day to day life and you can use rest of the money for other accessories 👍🏻
Not metal buttons
Does Pixel 6a in future will have Face unlock feature and after the recent updates whether heating issues is resolved or not. What's your experience
No definitively not. The Pixel 6 is one of the best Android smartphones out there.Perfect after all these updates
this review is 100 times better then Markus Brownee! Like it's so big deference 60, 90 or 120 Hz. people are unbelievable...
Bro i got my phone today its amazing i dont feel any heating issue after 13 update its around 37-40(max)
Where do you stay in India? How is your experience overall? Thanks
@@adr5754 i am from Chhattisgarh it warm while gaming 40+ generally otherwise it stays below 34-35 camera is good as compared to iPhone SE (2020) battery life is good too 1 full charge can stay for whole 1 day
I got the pixel 6 pro and iPhone 13
Can you confirm the experience of using the 6a in 5g? Does it overheats and throttles? Most reviewers just review the 6a in Wi-Fi mode, without really using it in real life, thus never really experienced the phone in 5g mobile data……
My 6a was getting so hot I could barely hold it, when connected to 5G. I found an article that advised switching it to LTE and it was much better. Then the Android 13 update and another update that followed it have made the phone stop overheating in 5G. If you haven't had the updates, be sure to install asap.
@@mackjay1777 hey , how well does it perform on 4G ? I mean does it get warm or nothing
I just picked up a 6a for $140. Amazon has them for 299 and you get $150 free credit on your Amazon account when you apply for an Amazon prime credit card which you are my total to $140
Pixel 6a is better than Pixel 6 when the price is compared! 90Hz, Gorilla glass Victus, better stereo make 6 better than 6a if price is not considered. And in India, improted Pixel 6 and locally available pixel 6a (taxes!!😐🙄) is of the same price. So pixel 6 makes much more sense than 6a. Form factor of Pixel 6a is heaven sent. I wish it had 90 Hz and then the title would have made sense.
Gr8 videos tho...keep it going!!
I agreed with this till yesterday but I just saw that they are selling Pixel 6A on AMAZON FOR 10K INR Cheaper than Flipkart so this information has tipped the scales for me towards the 6A.
Only 2 problems first 18w charger then gorrilla glass 3 . Everything else seems fine
wallpaper link pls
Check out the Mystic wallpaper pack by Canoopsy! Thanks for watching! 😁
@@Gadgetsu where can i get this
My problem with 6a this: has only 128 gb 🙄 😑 off storage and no card support 😑 😒
Google offers insane trade-in value for an iphone 8 or a Samsung Galaxy A51 $400 towards the Pixel 6a.
I would definitely get the PixelA but the fact that it only comes in 128 storage in 2022, no thanks. That's almost a joke. It's literally 2022 and you don't offer higher than 128? Pixel always ALMOST nails it.
Is it better? Not it isn't better, the pixel 6 is by far a better quality phone. That's the reason the 6a is cheaper
Yes, it's not the better device but the better buy! You're getting 95% of the experience and extremely similar cameras! Thanks for watching! 😁
@@Gadgetsu but your title doesn't say it's the better buy. It says it's the better phone. It's not, and there's a difference, and you conveniently didn't specify. Terrible and deceptive video that uses click-bait to get any attention
I'm not sure if you're truly grasping ' the same ' theory.
The pixel 6 is 6.4 inches Vs 6.1 so in essence much bigger display
The pixel 6 is glass Not plastic .
Two big upgrades
The screen is barely any bigger and actually easier to use on 6a. Plastic is not a downgrade at all in my opinion because you can't feel the difference in a case, it makes the phone lighter, and also more durable! Thanks for watching! 😁
@@Gadgetsu indeed , now i can use skins with more free mind bcz i won't be scared to break my phone's back 😂✌🏻🤍 also i love pixel 6a's size , such a treat to use
Plastic is actually an upgrade over glass for me. I prefer plastic back for durability and light weight
Pixel phone are the most slippery phone I've ever used in, my lifetime..
a poorly functioning fingerprint sensor which is not even permanently active without face recognition... exactly my humor
The only people that even care about the higher refresh rate screens are the ones watching videos like these. My friends in real life? They couldn't even tell me the refresh rate that their screen has other than "it works"
Nice video 🎉
My pixel six was my last pixel so I switched over the iPhone with the iPhone 12 pro max. At that time I had already had a pixel 3xl that I traded in for a pixel six to give it one last chance and I realize iOS is just much better. That integration and fluidity of everything always working, as that was not the same experience with android. I will never go back. In fact, I just traded in my 12 Pro Max for the 14 pro max and I just love everything about Apple. The funny part is after years of being a android fan boy I thought I would never say this, but it’s truly just overall a better product and many androids cost more than Apple now. Keep making your amazing videos.
ios? :) :)
@@receptyavidea yes the iOS experience is fluid, and I never have apps crash or the buggy experience of my android years.
Wow
Your white balance is so off
Just saying the truth about youtubers make your views less.
What about the RAM, Pixel 6 have 8 GB of RAM and Pixel 6a have 6 GB of RAM
THE STORAGE IS THE ONLY PROBLEM I SEE WITH THE 6A

@@ozzzy3z946 that's secondary
you dont even compare the natural bokeh of pixel 6.
Click-bait title. The 6 is better than the 6a. The 6a is the better buy, but not the better phone overall. Geez.
Battery life, battery size, ram, available storage, screen refresh rate.
The camera argument is stupid because you just took pictures of things no one takes pictures of. Bushes? Wtf? Try taking one of people indoors or one where people are moving. That lens size means the 6 can capture more light and isolate movement better.
What kind of terrible advice are you giving? It's not a better phone, it's a cheaper phone, but I thought that was obvious due to the price.
Hey Titus, thanks for your detailed comment! I did not take your comment as negative but actually as constructive feedback because you have a lot of good points that I need to talk more in depth about.
1. About the title, I was implying it was the better buy for most people but I get why than can be seen as clickbait and referring to the phone itself.
2. I should have mentioned about the storage options as I did receive a lot of comments saying that 128gb as the only option isn’t enough for them.
3. I understand completely with what you mean about the cameras. Unfortunately, I don’t have any means of taking pictures of peoples because I don’t have any friends or people willing to be a test subject in the video 😂 I should test more indoor photos in the future however!
Thanks again for the feedback and watching! I will take all these points in mind to help me as I grow as a creator!
@@Gadgetsu you know what? That was a great response, and I'm sorry for how abrasive and offensive I came off.
@@RetroKid No worries! I still appreciate the response regardless!
The pixel 6 has also wireless charging and faster charging speed, in some countries the price difference between the 6 the 6a could be 100 or even 50$ and honesty it worth spending that little extra money for the 6. My only problem with the pixel series in general is the battery charging speed, I mean over 2 hours to charge a phone from 0 to 100% is just ridiculous for a flagship in 2022, even the iPhone charges faster than that.
Well, If the difference is 50 dollarish, one should go for the P6. There shouldn't be any confusion. He is talking about 3 times that difference.
Not at all

I have a pixel 6 its junk
Junk? That's bold. Why?
IDK my 6 pro take gorgeous pics, better than 6a. re telephoto camera 6 pro, took pic of airplane way up in sky, with telephoto 4x, then zoomed in, could see clear detail; of plane. Engines, windows etc.
