![]() When approached for comment, Google said: “We can confirm, on background, that this is a one-off fault.” After getting in touch with them, I swiftly received a replacement handset which didn’t have this issue. I discussed this with other reviewers at a recent industry event and I was the only one with this issue, so it’s possible that I simply got unlucky with an early production sample. The rear panel was slightly misaligned with the frame, resulting in sharp protrusions on the bottom left and right corners of the handset. Unfortunately, my initial review model had a small manufacturing defect. ![]() The other Pixel models have glass-coated backs, which helps with scratch protection, although when placed next to each other you can’t really tell the difference. Rather than describing it as plastic, Google says that the Pixel 6a has a "thermoformed composite” rear and this is surrounded by an aluminium frame. This stretches across the entire width of the phone but isn’t quite as thick as it is on the more expensive models. It’s smaller in size, measuring 152 x 72 x 8.9mm, but retains the chunky horizontal camera bar from the regular Pixel 6 and 6 Pro. Google Pixel 6a review: Design and key featuresĪt first glance, the Pixel 6a doesn’t look too dissimilar from its siblings. It’s also identical in price to the new Nothing Phone (1), although we’re yet to receive a handset for review so can’t comment on how the two compare. The mid-range market has exploded this year, with excellent choices coming from the likes of the Xiaomi 12 Lite (£332), Samsung Galaxy A53 5G ( £399) and the OnePlus Nord 2T 5G ( £369). The Pixel 6a also finds itself in dangerous territory when it comes to non-Google competition. This is only a temporary deal, of course, but if savvy shoppers time it right, they can scoop up a flagship-level Pixel, with a larger, 90Hz display, 8GB of RAM and a superior 50MP main camera for just a little bit more. In fact, at the time of writing this review, the Pixel 6 is currently on offer for just £450. The issue, however, is that the Pixel 6 is nine months old by this point – with the Pixel 7 on the way – and so it now costs considerably less than it did at launch.
