Ive had the 7a now for about a month. It is a solid choice. Good software. Absolutely great camera and camera software for the price. Ok screen (Not as bright as my previous phone). The camera bridge can get scratched easily, so get a phone case as soon as possible (Dont even have it in your pocket without first putting on a phone case, preferably with a slider infront of camera). Big advice though, as soon as you get it, google "best settings for 7a", "best hidden functions 7a" etc. The phone/screen/battery is so much better if you know a few hidden settings (developer), for example 90fps instead of 60, turning off hidden useless functions that drain battery (the battery is actually quite good with the right settings). With the right settings the phone goes from "ok" to "great value at its price point". All that said, highly recommended (with the right settings on/off)

Matt thank you for the excellent video. I must say I think it also depends what phone you are coming from. First off, I want to say I love Apple phones but after 9 years of Apple you need a change. Came from the iPhone 11 to the Pixel 7a and I must say it was like a breath of fresh air. From the ability to customize the widgets on the phone, to the build in features of screening callers this phone is amazing@! I just got the phone today and I already unlocked most of the features since I am a bit of a tech guy, mostly for P.C. But I think most Apple iPhone user if they ever tried out any of the Pixel phones, I think most would agree that the Pixel phone is an excellent phone to buy. I decided to try out the phone since it is based on A.I. tech and I could had purposed the 8 but I figured since A.I. technology is relatively very new especially for phones I figured I will purchase an A.I. phone later on when the A.I. tech is a little more stable. Right now, A.I. is pretty much within the Beta stages in development. Great video and thanks!

I have been using this phone the moment it came out, preordered it and got it delivered when it hit the shelves if not earlier. I can vouch for most of the things Matt has mentioned in this review which is quite comprehensive and covers basically all aspects of this phone. Where I disagree with Matt is the battery life and face unlock on this phone. Battery life is ok at best on this phone, I am not a heavy user. I do not play games on this phone or watch videos and use it without 5G for most part but it still struggles to last a full day. I have to charge it midday most of the days. The face unlock does work but only when there is ample light, as soon as it gets dark the face unlock would be like it was nice knowing you i'll see you during daylight tomorrow. Apart from these two points, this review is spot on and the phone itself is not bad. If you can live with subpar charging speeds, below average battery life and okish face unlock then this phone is actually a nice budget phone with camera (stills not video) and software being its greatest strength.

I have samsung m21. Looking for a better phone. Found this one. Fits my needs perfectly. Remembered that I have recently bought samsung smarttag(s) 2. Googled if they are compatible with google pixel. Frick they aren't. So I'm stuck with a samsung phone for now(I use them too frequently to just sell them and buy a pixel). I will probably go for a samsung a35 or a55 if they will differ more significantly than the last gen but I will miss the smaller size, slow but still useful wireless charging, better camera and pixel-exclusive features... Or I'm looking for a used samsung s23 but unless I find a quite rare deal for it to be in my price range that won't going to happen... Just my mind rn...

One part of me thinks that the Pixel 7a is cheaper than the 8, and both phones will be pretty worn out by 4 years, but the Pixel 8 will have two more years of updates...hmm.

If this had the size of 4A (and preferably a headphone jack) I'd buy it in a heart beat, but having broken the screen on my 4A I think I will fix it and continue to use 4A as long as I can.

I've had Pixel 7 for a year..While the quality is solid.. the overheating problem is annoying.. I usually never think to buy a new phone when only using it for a year.. but now i think about the replacement..

Personally I paid the extra few quid a month for the pixel 8 the updates guarantee for even longer , more features now and future features . Updated in other areas and better battery in a more nicer compact size and a solid back .

The Pixel 7a and Pixel 7 were going for the same price, I went with the 7a for the bigger megapixel camera. It's a good phone, nice shape, perfect size like you say. Great and thorough review, thanks.

That doesnt make sense. The megapixels are not important. Pixel 7 is better
@Mad4BBQ 5 ай бұрын
@@BubatzBoss 1. **More Detail**: A higher megapixel count means the sensor captures more detail, providing more data points for the image processing algorithms, potentially leading to better results. 2. **Better Zoom**: More megapixels can improve digital zoom. When you zoom in on a photo, you're essentially cropping the image. Having more megapixels means you can crop in closer while still maintaining good image quality. 3. **Improved Low Light Performance**: More megapixels can contribute to improved performance in low light conditions. The algorithms can use the additional data to better reduce noise and enhance details. 4. **Advanced Features**: More megapixels can enable advanced features like computational photography. For example, Google's Super Res Zoom technology uses the slight hand movements of the user when they take a photo to gather more data, which can be used to enhance the resolution of zoomed photos. 5. **Flexibility in Post-Processing**: More megapixels offer more flexibility in post-processing. You can crop, zoom, and manipulate the image in various ways without losing too much quality.

Get the 7 over the 7a if they are in the same price range. The 7 is indeed better built and has better screen. Don’t just look at specs alone, go see and try the phone in real life.

Got the pixel 7a about a month ago and I have loved it I have been using the pixel phones for a good while now and have always gotten the smaller size ones and have loved them and thats one reason why when it was time to upgrade or get another phone that I picked the 7a because it wasn't too big just a little bit bigger than my last phone but not too much so it was perfect for me because of the size and I love the features that it has and how easy it is still to use and it's not a bulky phone or it's not too large the 7 and 7 pro seemed to big to me so thanks for your review and for saying its a great phone to get right now
