    Eddie - 2 months ago, Verified purchaser
    Honestly one of the worst phones I've ever had. This phone is bad enough I'm going to return it. The audio output on it is absolutely abysmal, to the point that all of my speakers sound like they were purchased from wish. All developer options did not solve the issue, only made the volume output incredibly low. Beyond angering to have to fiddle constantly and pray I finally get tolerable audio. For this much money it should be working out of the box. The fingerprint reader also does not work well at all. This phone runs roughly as well as my Motorola edge from 2020, which I will immediately be going back to. What an absolute joke of $400+. If this was a $50-100 phone, I'd understand. For this sticker price though... What a waste of my time and money.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As an iPhone user, it took some time getting used to. But aside from that, I found the camera quality better! Can’t wait to take this to my next concert to see the picture difference! The battery life was good as well!

    Do not buy if you're a photographer, digital artist, or are used to color-calibrated displays. The screen is yellow-shifted compared to every other screen in my household and there are no options/settings to fix it, not even a simple white balance (there's confusion online saying it's the night light setting, but that just makes things far worse). No apps can correct it without requiring full access to your phone, which is a ridiculous security issue. Otherwise it seems like a great phone, but this is a dealbraker for anyone who takes or edits images/videos. I wish someone had told me before I got stuck with it for the next several years, so this is me telling you.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm not sharing a picture because I'm reviewing this phone while using it. It seems to have cool camera features, though not as robust as a flagship product would. However, the overall quality seems good, and so far, the battery has fared pretty well given how much I've used it. As far as mid-tier phone options, I think this one's a winner. Solid build, pretty customizable, and a fair price point. Google did well with this one

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This phone is exactly what you think it is for the price and even more. Battery life was great, when using all day to watch shows, scroll the internet, take some pics (low light pics turned out great) it lasted all day. The phone felt solid in my hands, always get a case. For the price, you can’t go wrong for every day use.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product from Influenster and company itself in exchange for my honest review. My first impression is that the phone looks fancy and similar to iPhone 7. One thing I dislike is that the back of the phone is very slippery. I almost drop the drop couple times. The camera quality is great . The photo looks clear. The battery lasts all day long. The phone runs smooth but not very fast compared to the phone I own. Overall this phone is wonderful with great features. However it needs to improve the system to make it run faster.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First off the camera is amazing! Takes great pictures. The phone feels solid and fits great in my hands. You would think it being a cheaper phone the display and performance off the wouldn’t be so good but I can tell you it’s fast and responsive and resolution is also amazing. The battery life isn’t the best but either is my iPhone14.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My family only owns Apple products so I was a bit worried about the Pixel 8a. However, it is a great phone. It is really easy to use so I was able to just put my card in it and use it. I like the camera as it takes good pictures. And I love the color of the phone itself. The battery life on it is decent which surprised me.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Google Pixel 8a has a 6.1 display and has 128 gb storage. The battery life lasted for me about 12 hours and it took about 1-2 hours to fully charge. Battery usage manly depends on the person. Some people may use their phone more than others. The camera is fantastic I love it. The colors pop and images are very detailed. Performance of the phone is overall very good. It also has AI Features. Calls and sounds on this phone are loud and clear as well. It's like they combined things from the Google Pixel 8 and Google Pixel 8 Pro into the Google Pixel 8a. Excellent Camera Long Battery Life AI Features Performance Great
