Anyone had much experience with this phone? My mate 20 pro just started playing up need a new one.
Reviews are overwhelming positive! It's a good phone :)
I have one and I haven't had any issue with overheating like some people say, the battery is ok, its not fantastic, but its not terrible either. I haven't had any issues with the fingerprint scanner like some people have. It's been fine and for the price I think its a good phone. Ive had it about 4-5 weeks.
I bought one for my mother with the recent deal from Google. https://www.ozbargain.com.au/goto/721513
Can vouch for it, feels premium and battery life is great. I am a Samsung S21 Ultra user and prefer Samsung's Android on it over Google's but that's just a personal preference.
I got one at launch. The back is all plastic and scratches very easily. Get a case ASAP. After turning off some features (eg song identification etc.) battery life is acceptable. I can get from 8am to midnight with about 30-40% left whereas my old Huawei P30 would still have 60%. Fingerprint sensor is ok. I have not experienced any overheating. Performance is good enough for everything I could imagine doing with my phone. Charging speed with a 65W charger is fast enough for me. I find the screen a little dim when left on the adaptive setting. Camera is decent, I find the look a little more processed than some phones. Overall it's a solid phone with lots of little AI powered bells and whistles you never knew you needed.
Isn't the 6a rated for 18w fast charging?
Probably, my charger is 65w, I just plug it in and watch it go. It's full in an hour or two.
I don't think it has face unlock (the Mate 20 Pro does).
The Pixel 6 Pro does (but the Pixel 6 doesn't).
I had to sell my Pixel 6 when I realised this (and go back to my Mate Pro - purchased Dec 2018 and still going strong)
Isn't face unlock a software feature? Why it wouldn't be available on this phone is beyond me
None of the current Pixel line has face unlock, even though they all should to make up for the really hit and miss in-display fingerprint sensors.
Its a brilliant mid range phone for $500-600, but its really not a competitor for the Mate Pro range. Theres a lot of little Google touches that will make the overall user experience pleasant, but if youre any kind of power user, this phone will disappoint.
In my opinion its a worthy Pixel 5a successor, not really a Pixel 6 family member at all (bar some software features).
Pros:
- Great camera array
-Stock Android with nice little UI features (Magic Eraser, Assistant, Now Playing etc)
-Plastic back with metail rails, means its very durable and looks nicer than the Pixel 6/Pro IMO.
Cons:
-Battery life is only acceptable, even with 5G turned off 3-5hrs max Screen On Time.
-Display locked at 60Hz even tho its a 120Hz panel, noticeable if youre coming from a phone with a 90+hz screen
-Fingerprint sensor still very hit and miss in any kind of direct light, indoors its fine.
Any suggestion for a small android phone but powerful and long battery life? Use as a second phone.
Pixel 5 all the way
it says unavailable
Still available on my end
Haiyaaaa
Fuiyoh
any differences in warranty for uk stock?
i think only 1yr warranty instead of 2yrs for local stock??
i just read through the page, didn't find any warranty info. can you share where you see 1yr warranty?
Grey import
This is a great phone, excluding it's vulnerable Gorilla Glass 3 screen.
Anyone has experience with the camera? Looking to upgrade from TCL plex
Foiyohhhh best camera on the market
Best in class for the price.
Best camera setup youll find for this price bar none.
I honestly don't think this is a good deal. Australian vendors have been dropping prices below this price and with them, you're guaranteed warranty in the country, which is especially important on a phone known for QA issues. I'd wait and buy Aus stock.
Where are the better deals?
I feel pretty much the same way.
The only problem is now that i am ready to buy it seems all the local deals have disappeared!
True, but this price is yoyoing for some reason, it's not available that cheap right now
Selling a brand new one - Aussie stock for anyone located in Melbourne.
Got from Telstra rewards store.
Sealed in box $500 - DM me
Turn on DM's :)
Done sorry
Is it sold?
Given it doesn't come with a charger anyway, aside from warranty length (assume google will cover worldwide) is there any issue as it seems much cheaper than standard retail of $749. Thoughts? Or maybe wait til 7 comes out and there'll be further drops on local stock prices?
Also 3.5% Cashback on phones with CR / SB
Gets another $18-20
