Google Pixel 4a with 5G - Android Phone - New Unlocked Smartphone with Night Sight and Ultrawide Lens - Clearly White

I am amazed with the great and quick delivery of this phone! When I opened it, i am very pleased! It surpassed my expectations, the setup was quick and its a good phone with superb matte black design which I adored and the camera was perfect! I am happy with my purchase however i give it 4 stars since theres bo back button wherein we can go back to our previous tabs! But so far it passed my standards! Thankful since i got it for a good price! Better than paying 1,000 dollars for a smartphone! So if you are thinking to switch like me , dont hesitate to buy this! Its worth it!!

Awesome phone! Its very fast, super long battery life and pretty simple to use. I never have issues with the finger print reader. However the camera is not as good as Id hoped but I dont take pictures that often anyway. I go camping a lot and needed a phone that has excellent batter life and this one is awesome! I dont have any social media apps so I only use it for calls and texts and it lasts me all weekend. All around pretty good phone for everything I need.

At first it was ok for the price. Pictures are amazing once you take them (well get to that). The 5G depends on what carrier you have. For me I have T-Mobile and half the time if it says 5G and full bars, that basically means I have no service and cant connect to the internet. If I have 5G and its half or very little bars, that means I have good service. I know, its stupid and makes no sense. The OS is good overall but as usual, Google is stripping down or dumbing down all their services in some way or another. That means for the Pixels less options and less customization. So if theres a way you can revert back to Android a year ago, then do it. Otherwise its ok but inching closer to the Apple* mentality of heres 1 option, just take it. Now for the camera. Holy hell the delay when you hit the button and it actually taking the picture is absolutely abominable when you first start the camera app. If youre an iphone user, this is your ammunition. You can use this to make fun of Android, full stop. Its hilarious. If youre a photographer and need to capture stuff in the moment, stop reading this and buy something else. Its atrocious. I took a 2 minutes 4k video and it took 15 minutes to rotate the video 90 degrees. Yep. If youre willing to wait sometimes up to 5 seconds to take your picture then this is good haha. Everything else is typical android. Overall, just save your money and get the flagship pixel phones with a processor thats actually worth a damn like the Pixel 4, 4xl, etc. They made sure to put the 5G capability in the mediocre models and it sucks.

Fantastic phone! Super fast, android 11 is extremely smart, and just a good all round device. I was skeptical about the battery life but Google utilizes it really well. It lasts more than 2 days for me, thats longer than how long my 5000mah phone used to last. The fingerprint recognition is instantaneous too. Havent used the phone for night time photography yet but daytime photos are crisp and clear.

I will keep this review short and sweet. I got this phone mainly because Qi charging was listed as supported. [17] Qi-compatible. Wireless charger sold separately. No. It is not Qi-compatible. If you want to charge it wirelessly, you need to buy a receiver -- not the same as a charger. Even with a receiver you will still need a charging pad. Ive seen all sorts of misleading information about this feature and Pixel phones. Some even saying that wireless charging support came in around Pixel 3. According to Google -- this phone does not support Qi charging. If you want the wireless charging, get the Pixel 5.

When I visited stores the Samsung phones were always hot and that is why I switched to the Pixel. Photos are great, it charges quickly, and holds the charge for a long time, but many of the options are irritating. For example, if I hold the volume button the media volume is changed instead of the ringer volume. Ring volume should be first and I should not have to go into the volume options to choose ringer volume. I and other people I know with Pixels have experienced issues while texting and agree it is not intuitive. Other phones often do not receive our text, but they show as sent. It is very random. I feel like the phone requires too much effort and wish it was more user friendly.

I was very leary on purchasing a phone through here, we have always went to the cell phone store, but I will definitely buy through here again! This was just like the one that we bought from the store. Saved us some money from buying through here and we didnt have to be at the store for a few hours getting a new phone. switching all the info to the new one was really easy. I will probably be buying off here for now on. Highly recommend, just as described, speedy delivery.

The bluebooth module is complete crap, I could be called a Power User; Smart Watch & Bluetooth Headset(s) & Bluetooth Mouse/Keyboard, Ive had far better connection and reconnections with my Samsung S8 Active or even the Samsung A20 I used for a short time, even excluding the amazing DEX program provided via Samsung. Google owns and operates Android so youd expect it to be the best most fleshed out device however outside the good camera it is complete crap. You cant use any type of heavy duty case; Otterbox Defender type, because the all swiping doesnt work hardly at all with thicker cases, there is no option to use bottom buttons to avoid this. Since Google owns both Android, Chrome and YouTube youd expect at least that was perfect but it is far from even decent. You cant rotate the phone without clicking the full size button as it doesnt rotate on its own like all androids Ive used including the LG K7/8 etc. The finger print scanner is honestly the most finicky one Ive used, it requires 3 or 4 attempts to figure out your finger each and every time. Biggest irritation is the confusion internally with fast charging. Unless your using just the provided charger its hit or miss if not only will it fast charge but even charge at all. I use a 3rd party magnetic charger since I have so many devices and it works amazing with all devices except this POS. You rarely get fast charge and many times it wont even charge on its own charger. I could keep going but for the price go anywhere else, even those dreaded crap Chinese phones I listed above. Do not and I repeat do not waster your money on this pile of junk!!!!!

Just got this phone a few days ago, so still evaluating it but wanted to clarify one point that some users are having a different experience with-the 5G functionality with VZW. Ive attached a photo showing that the 4A 5G that I received from Amazon DOES work with VZWs 5G band. Just wanted to get that point out here on the reviews, based on what I had read here I was ready to handle just a 4G connection, so Im excited to see that 5G icon! So far, love this unit. Ive always been a pixel fan, except for the pixel 4 and its huge forehead and chin, seemed to go opposite of the smartphone trends. Say what you want about a plastic build, but I love it. Its so light. And whats is the big draw to a glass back build? Glass breaks people, plastic doesnt. And have fun paying for that glass replacement, since none of the phone insurance plans will cover it. And what do 99 % of us do with our glass sandwiches??? Slap a rubber or plastic case on it. Id rather have the plastic build, yes with a case, but the weight is so much less since it isnt wrapped in glass. Big proponent of the pure google experience on the pixel series and no overlaid UI from the manufacturer. Battery life on this one is good. Started out at 830 this morning and at 1900 was at 45%. Plenty of screen time during the day. So no complaints there. Speakers are incredible. Any time you have to turn the volume down on a phone cause the sound effects are blowing you away on that game or movie, is a sign of a great set of speakers. Charge time is fine. Not as fast as some of the flagships, but Ive been able to go from 25% to 68% in 20 minutes. Thats good enough for me, and Im rarely away from a plug or a battery pack, so charge time isnt a huge factor for me. The fingerprint reader is what weve come to expect on the pixel - Faster than lightning. The in screen readers on the flagships are just no where near as reliable or fast. Ill have to get used to the rear mount again, but thats not a problem for me. If you need face recognition or wireless charging then this isnt the device for you obviously. But I dont list that as a kick in the nuts to the pixel 4A 5G, it just doesnt have it, so if you need those options then look elsewhere. For my money, 459 for this phone is an awesome deal. This will be my daily driver for the near future, for sure.

Finally a phone wheres others can hear me without asking me to continually repeat myself!! Also, Im able to hear clearly others without trying to clarify!! Excellent camera is a real bonus. After playing around with it a bit, adding microsoft launcher to it adding navigation buttos on the bottom, I had it just like I need, super awesome!! The audio and camera alone makes me want to make this my most favorite cell phone ever!!
