Google don't wanna be the biggest, fastest phone manufacturer. They just wanna showcase their software first.

This video: Do you want A, B, C or X, Y Z?
Me: Yes

Now this is part of the reason why I subscribed. Definitely got some insight on what I want my secondary phone to be.

I feel like my pixel 3 knows it's end is near while I watch these videos😂

Did I hear " potential better Battery on 4a5G " ?

[colorfinestudios]

I went from a samsung galaxy S8+ to a pixel 4a5g. The 4a5g is the better choice in my opinion. Good battery life, no screen lag, head phone jack, decent price tag, 4k video, great sound and takes good images if you're into all that.

Recently purchased the Pixel 5 and I must say it's a darn good phone. Speakers aren't as bad as people make it out to be. the 4a does sound better though. That 90hz is buttery smooth and may seem like nothing but this being my first 90hz phone you can defiantly tell the difference. Oh and Pixel 5 battery like is amazing seems like you get almost a extra 45mins to a 1hr vs the 4a

Much appreciated comparison. I've been seriously thinking about getting the 4a 5G, which seems like the forgotten Pixel phone. Google Fi has a great deal on it right now for $299.

Got my parents the Pixel4a 5g. Their only complaint is how hard to organize the Photos are (mind they are over 60 years old). Everything else seems perfect so far.

What baffles me is that the pixel 5 with a smaller footprint, has a 4000mah battery. But the 4a 5G with a a bigger footprint has a 3800mah battery. Would love to see a teardown of the 4a 5G to see the amount of wasted space.

[randymcgiveron]

I went with the pixel 4a 5G over the 4A. Although I prefer the size of the standard 4a. The trade in credits available from Google are much better with the 4a 5g. I'm on T-Mobile and with a new advent of standalone 5G I went to 5G route for the best coverage. I'm more concerned with coverage than actual increase speed.

[YouTubeHandlesAreStupid]

Super. Freaking. Helpful.
Well produced and straight to the point.

I absolutely love my Pixel 5. In fact, I haven’t liked a “Google phone” this much since the Nexus 5. I paid $649 with a Google Black Friday deal, but even at $699 it is still a great price for what you get. The size and features make a great package all around. Thanks to Google for delivering the goods this year.

[paytonatkinson]

Thanks for this! Just got a $300 trade in credit for my Pixel 3 when purchasing my 4a 5g for black friday. Was surprised they gave that much back for the device!

Everyone, if you have an old pixel phone Google has a very aggressive trade in offer right now for the Pixel 4a 5G since they are not selling these devices. Personally I'm not a fan of these phones since they nerfed the processing power on them, but if you have a Pixel 2 or lower, they are offering $235 trade in value. Basically you can get a Pixel 4a 5G for $265 only. Very good deal for a 3+ year old phone trade in.

Going from a pixel 3a xl to a pixel 5 would make no sense. But on the other hand the $349/$499 price tag makes no sense all because of the 5g. The $70 for a pixel 3a trade is just hilarious. Hard pass on this years slew of devices.

[karisgregory]

I have the 4a 5G which works great, prefer the big screen on here. Still runs smooth and 5G is good depending on your area, plus the speaker quality is way better on here then the 4a and 5.

[conspicuousrod]

I have the Pixel 5, I hate the earpiece main speaker under the glass, I make a lot of phone calls and this is sort of annoying but I prefer it over the 4a 5g because of the newer gorilla glass durability, waterproof, and dust resistance. I just feel as though I can throw it in my pocket and not worry as much. I can hold it in my small to medium hands easier than the 4a 5g, I prefer the 90hz screen over the 4a 5g...it just looks better in day-to-day use.

All that being none of that matters and you want a headphone jack...go for the $200 cheaper phone....I'll keep the Pixel 5 but you aren't losing much if you get the 4a 5g.

Love the Pixel phones. The stock Android is the way to go. I am planning on getting the 5 and my wife is getting the 4a 5g. Both have pixel 3a right now. Price difference is the pixel 5 is about $8 more a month over the 4a5g. For $8 more a month I'll love having the water resistance, 90hz refresh rate, wireless charging, 2gb more ram. All major upgrades over the pixel 3a and all together worth the added cost in my opinion. Don't need a headphone jack because I have airpods, plus I'm not into big phones, hence why I have a pixel 3a and not a 3a xl. 6" display on the 5 is larger than the 3a, and on a smaller frame phone.
