Google Pixel 8a - Unlocked Android Phone with Google AI, Advanced Pixel Camera and 24-Hour Battery - Bay - 128 GBECOLOGOECOLOGO

protects my phone like a glove. I wish I could give you a more detailed review but I don't make a habit of dropping my phone (or abusing my phone for that matter)

My girlfriend's phone broke so for Valentine's Day I got her this. She's very happy with the quality and overall that's all that matters

If you aren't a heavy smartphone user this is a great choice. I mostly only use it for being a phone, surfing the web, and as an Android Auto phone. It isn't very heavy. Most apps run fine, although there are some that are seemingly poorly optimized that either run slow or run the phone hot. Android auto initially had issues with stuttering but that has worked itself out, it was probably fixed in a patch.

The phone is very good, but at the time I bought it there was a small difference in price with it's predecessor (pixel 8) which is better in almost everything.Battery life could be better when compared to other mid range phones.

Pixel phones do not disappoint!You won't regret it.

I bought this 5 days ago. The initial set up was quick. I am now on day 5 of finishing of the set up🥴 I has leftout so many things. I am having to set tons of preferences. None of them were added. Nor was any of my software transfered. That will probably take me a week to get installed and setup. I have a Nokia. So I don't know which phone is not transferring completely. My old phone is a G4 and this is a G5 and that maybe pert of the issue also, but I was told it should not be 🤷🏼‍♀️I worked Tech Support 20 years at a college and helped students with software issues helping use their laptops, tablets. When I was in the computer lab I was uncharge of install and troubleshoot software on the colleges Macs and PC's over our Intranet. Mac's and computer graphics were my specialty. I understand and can support various devices such as laptops and tablets and normally phones and teach them the basics of how to use 95% of software programs we teach until they get to the advanced stages and while installing / transferring and setting up new phones was not list of things the college did. I was allowed sit with the students and staff and instructors and teach setup a few college related things like setting up their phones to access our network and their emails on our servers. I wasn't supposed to spend more than 15 minutes with each student when we were busy when we were not I would teach them more. After 15 minutes I set them up with a one of our technicians assigned to help with more complicated problems as my main job was answering the phones and helping staff with minor issues or writing them up a ticket and assigning them to technician to help with classroom issues.This install and transfer has been a royal pain and taking way long than it has with my other phones!!!Can't tell you eases of use except that it seems like everything I do needs permission to access or troubleshooting. Which is a pain especially since it is supposedly storing the passwords. Like I said I don't know which phone is responsible for all the problems, but I almost feel starting from scratch and not transferring data might have been quicker.1 month later...Took it to my brother who has programed main frame computerscouldn't get it to work after several hours. He said to return it!!

I was surprised to see there was no bubble wrap or shipping paper inside the box so my phone box wouldn't be bouncing around throughout shipping. But luckily the phone was unopened and undamaged.It's a bit smaller than I expected but the screen size doesn't affect my texting at all. Operating software is smooth, picture is crisp and clean; camera is incredible, it came unlocked and all I had to do was put my Boost Mobile sim card from my old phone into this one and download a boost configuration app, so it was really easy switching everything over. Just plugged one phone into another to transfer all my apps and data from my old phone..It fits nicely in my hand and my pockets.. it's not heavy so my pants aren't being weighed down by it.I must say I'm inpressed by this Pixel, I've used the 2xl and the 7 pro and always was impressed. The 8a is worth every penny. Ppl were complaining about fongr print reader but there's an option in your settings to turn up sensitivity to your screen and specifically your fingerprint reader. But you have facial recognition so really you never will need that fingerprint reader ..But I guess to each their own.I'd suggest buying phone if you're looking to downsize.. but I can see that being a bigggggg turnoff for a lot of customers. The screen I basically 6 in.
