I definitely think so! The 5a needs it's very own thread alongside all the other Pixel devices. :) I'm sure we can get various sub-threads with some camera photos, case suggestions, potential bugs and tons more.

I absolutely love the naming scheme for Google products. "Almost Black, Kinda purple, Maybe Moon, sorta pink". Just puts a smile on my face everytime I'm looking through colour options for cases or phones. I hope they continue with it. :)

Was also sad to see that feature leave. It's by no means a deal breaker for me but definitely a nice to have. Luckily we can pick up 1TB external drives these days for reasonable prices and can throw millions of full quality photos on there. :) Who knows, depending on how well the devices do...

Think of it this way. The iPhone 4 was very similar to the iPhone 4s. It's only a minor design change with improvements made underneath. We see the same thing happening on the Pixel 5a vs the 4a. - Water Resistance IP67 - Much larger battery - Slightly bigger display - inclusion of a Ultra...

I highly doubt it. The $449 price tag is already too good for the amount of value you getting. I think that is the Black Friday sale price right out the gate lol.

Congrats! Hope you enjoy it. :D I'm warming up the credit card now lol.

The main attraction for me is the battery size. Increasing from 3,800 (4a) to 4,700mAh is quite a significant improvement. Very exciting. Everyone loves a long battery life. Charging has become faster these days but if you don't need to charge during the day no matter how heavily you use your...

According to Google's SVP of Devices and Services, Rick Osterloh. He went on a interview with a German publication called Der Spiegel where he stated the high end specs will be matched with a high end price. So I'm assuming we are talking $849 for the regular and maybe $949 for the Pro model...

Thanks for the feedback Kizzy. Sounds like it should be perfect in the performance department. The only game I really play on my phone is Pokémon Go (yes it's still going lol) so wouldn't considered that "heavy use". I do like to take photos but not overly concerned about the small details. As...

Hello Morty! We meet again :D lol. Yeah, previous Crackberry member and now moved over to AndroidCentral. Always nice to see familiar names. I think I'm going to pick up the Pixel 5a when it launches. While the new Google Tensor processors and all new camera design is awesome. Would have...

Hey everyone, Wanted to get your opinion on this. Google is rumoured to be launching the Pixel 5a 5G later this month. Sporting many of the same internals as the previous flagship Pixel 5 such as the 765G professor and a camera that's nearing 4 years old already. Do you think it's worth...

Thanks for the reply Rakbat :) May I ask where you got the IP52 rating from? I search high and low for one lol. I think as long as the phone is ok with some rain (drizzle) that I can wipe away with my sleeve or something. Then I'll be happy. I used to only have Blackberry devices and if I...

Thanks for the reply Mike :) Nice to get everyone's opinion on this. I've always been ultra cautious with my devices but always nice to have that little bit of protection from some rain or accidental drop in some water.

Hello everyone, I'm very interested in purchasing the 5G version of Google's latest Pixel 4a family. I know Google has not stated any IP rating for the Pixel 4A 5G, however, for those who have the device (either for review or purchase). Are you able to do the following without any damage...

There are a couple things I hope to see from the Pixel A-series this year. 1) Improved durability. The Pixel 4XL has been hammered recently for its poor structure due to 4 poorly placed antenna lines. 2) Battery Life - hoping to see some improvements there. I feel Google was too cautious...
