slide 1 of 6, Google Tensor, the brains behind Pixel 6a.
Switching is simple.
It only takes a few steps to move your favorites from your old phone and get going on Pixel 6a. Just use the Quick Switch Adapter to transfer messages, contacts, and photos to your new device13.
Google Tensor, the brains behind Pixel 6a.
Apps launch fast, pages and images load quickly, and everything runs smoothly because the Pixel 6a is powered by Google Tensor– the same custom-built chip as Pixel 6 Pro.
All-day power.
Pixel's Adaptive Battery can last all day, so you don't have to worry about slowing down to charge. It learns your favorite apps, saves power on those you rarely use, and can last over 24 hours. You can also extend your battery up to 72 hours total with Extreme Battery Saver4– you can choose which apps to run, and Pixel can turn the others off. Plus, get hours of power in just a few minutes with fast wired charging5.
Take truly great shots with intelligent photography.
Real Tone represents all skin tones beautifully and authentically. Face Unblur makes faces look sharper6. Capture the moments that matter and even take stunning portraits in low light with Night Sight7. What's more, Magic Eraser makes distractions disappear, just like that8.
Protection and privacy. Simplified.
Take your phone almost anywhere. With IP67 protection, Pixel 6a can take a little water and dust. And the built-in safety and security of the Titan M2™ chip and Google Tensor security core give Pixel an extra layer of hardware security, so it's more resilient to attacks9. And, with Fingerprint Unlock, you can unlock your phone securely and reliably with just a touch.
Android experiences built for you.
Customize your Pixel interface with Material You. The colors across Pixel even complement the wallpaper image you choose– meaning you can get creative with it. Get useful info with At a Glance, like recent playlists when you connect your headphones, or a boarding pass before your flight10. With Live Translate, translate languages in real time. You can chat in 11 languages, interpret face-to-face conversations, and translate signs with the camera11. And your Pixel will keep getting better with feature drops – automatic software updates with new features, tricks, and apps12.

Yes, I'd recommend this product.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this phone for a while as my primary phone and absolutely don’t have any complaints and cons. Performance is awesome and I love that it’s very less weight and it’s charging very fast. Battery life is also outstanding, with big graphic gaming apps I’m able to run the phone for almost 24 hours.I love how I could blur the background in pics and erase unwanted objects without using any extra app… just go for it and you will love it especially the camera lovers.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Pixel 6a is a great upgrade from my Note 8. The camera takes great pictures in all different kinds of lighting. The phone didn't come preloaded with a bunch of unnecessary apps that takes up unnecessary memory. The screen is clear and crisp. However, the phone is rather slippery and needs a good case ASAP. After months of use I still dislike that you have to press two buttons at the same time to power off. It's seemingly impossible with just my right hand. But the likes far outweigh any dislikes. This has been a great phone and I'd recommend it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far this is by far the best phone that I have ever owned. Overall it is pretty average when it comes to features like the camera, the screen, sound quality, etc. But what really sets it apart are it's advanced features which I really love. The two features that I really like are the translator and google lens. With google lens you can take a photo using your phone camera and it will run a google search for the photo so you can pull up any information you want. For example have you ever walked outside and saw a neat plant and wondered what it was? Well with Google Lens you can find out. Regarding the translator you can use it to translate voice from one language to another or to translate text which comes in really handy when you live in a State that often has Spanish signs up instead of English. The last thing I really love with this phone is that the locked screen has a space for information that you would find interesting. For example with my old phone I had to unlock the phone to see how many minutes were left on a timer but with this phone I can just press the power button and the minutes left will be displayed on the locked screen which makes tracking your breaks convenient. Overall with the features I have listed and the other ones that this phone has I would gladly recommend this phone to anyone looking for a good phone.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Needed to replace my IPHONE but, didn’t want to spend an arm and a leg on a new phone. Bought the Pixel 6a for the price and quickly found out that it does way more than I expected. Excellent cameras, superb battery and feature rich OS. LOVE the Google integration with my email and calendar.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The 6a is a great little phone! the viewing quality on the screen is beautiful! the battery life is amazing! i have always been a fan of phones other than the iPhone simply becaue you can customize it so much more! the picture quality is fantastic! the storage is plenty for the photos/apps i use. i do wish there was the option to add more storage via a miniSD card, but that is not a deal breaker. i LOVE the color! it is easy to hold on to, fits great in my hand. Overall, a great phone!

Yes, I'd recommend this product.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Taking Google’s Pixel 6a for a test drive after extensively using the Pixel 6 as my daily-driver for the past 9 months was a comfortable, smooth ride – unsurprisingly.
Right out of the box, the smaller form-factor and lighter weight immediately relieved my palm of the arduous heft that is now common to today’s flagship phablets from the big three handheld device manufacturers. Compared to the Pixel 6, the 6a feels much more natural to handle and easier to navigate, as opposed to the ‘top-heavy’ feeling from the larger and longer screens associated with the top-tier premium smartphones.
The lack of bulk comes at a small price in the reduced megapixel camera, lesser RAM, and smaller storage; but make no mistake, this phone does almost everything its older, more powerful, bigger brothers can do.
Snappy and as responsive as you’d expect Google’s newest flagship line to perform. Out of the package, the new G2 Tensor chip paired with the Android 12 operating system, stands to outperform almost every competitor’s phone in the equivalent price-range. As of this review, after the initial setup, a notification popped up to upgrade to the latest operating system: Android 13.
The only feature that I actually do miss in this iteration, is the ability to charge the device wirelessly. Not a big issue for some, though many of my chargers, including my nightly charging stand, are wireless. This is due to the lack of a glass back, of which, both of the other Pixel’s in the 6a’s generation contain. This, however, leads to the lighter weight and increased portability of this incredibly capable smartphone.
The battery life seems to be an improvement over the more memory intensive models out there, and I routinely get a full day of regular usage, winding down to around 55% just before bedtime, despite having a smaller milliamp/hour capacity.
All in all, a great choice, and the perfect price-point for the opportunity to step into this generation’s line-up of exceptional Pixel smartphones.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We grabbed the Google Pixel 6a phone for our preteen daughter! It’s such an easy phone to set up and adding Family link was so simple.
The battery charges fast and lasts for such a long time. Nightly charges are a must depending on usage amounts. The camera is clear and perfect for taking photos, and offers such fun apps in the Google play store. Definitely recommend this phone.
