Hello, I am in the market for a new phone and I am seriously considering the Pixel 5a.
The main reason why I haven't pulled the trigger yet, is I have been reading some things about how there is sometimes some lag when using camera which I thing is attributed to the 765G processor being not up to the task.
A couple of questions:
1. Is there any sort of delay when one once to take multiple photos of the same subject? Some times when I take pictures of things -- especially people, I will take 2 or 3 just to make sure someone isn't blinking. I think I saw somewhere that there may be a lag.
2. Same issue when taking photos in low light -- is there a lag when you take the picture meaning one has to hold the camera steady for a second or two when one takes a picture?
3. One review I saw shows a screen shot of someone using the Camera and a black screen with "Processing and a spinning circle" is showing after the snap. Is this just the camera storing the image to the gallery?
4. I think I also saw that if someone takes multiple still pictures in rapid succession the phone will overheat. Is this true?
5. I have read some things that there is some sort of delay from when one takes a photo until it appears in the gallery/Google Photos. Is that true?
I understand it's widely reported that recording 4K video at 60 FPS is a problem with over heating, but I don't care about that since I don't take video with phone cameras.
If Google had put the 780 chip in this phone, I think that would have solved many of these camera performance issues.
