[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good choice as android phone, solid battery life, normal using last full day, camera has nice quality and nice lenses, horizon level indicator is my favorite, that what iPhone missing, strong performing phone. High potential searching engine and built in tools, with quality details, would recommend.

The camera is perfection.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am impressed with Google and the quality of the phones they have produced. One of my previous phones was a Motorola and the camera on it was awful! If you zoomed in even a little, the picture would be blurry. The Pixel 8a has an amazing camera, blows my old one out of the water. The photos are clear and crisp, zooming in is no problem, the editing options are phenomenal. I love the option to combine pictures if something happens (such as someone blinking). And the ability to remove background noise!
The Pixel 8a is slim and lightweight but sturdy. The Aloe color is very pretty, although I usually add a case so phone color isn't very important to me. The battery life is good, no complaints! The price point seems to be average .
I recently bought a Google Pixel 8 pro and I am still going to stick with it but the Pixel 8a is a very solid back up option.

Apple is better

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a iPhone owner I would not recommend this phone. The pixel is slim and has some similarities to iPhone which was very surprising. The camera is good in 1x only in my opinion but past tht it’s just get worse honestly. Battery life doesn’t last long.

User-Friendly With a High-Quality Camera!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Google Pixel 8A is a user-friendly phone that comes packed with convenient features. A few of my favorites include the high-resolution camera, bright display, and long battery life. The Google Pixel 8A does an excellent job of handling all of my daily tasks on a single charge. I find one of the best new features is Circle to Search because it makes online searches even easier. In addition, the phone’s matte finish and rounded corners give it a modern style that feels nice to hold and is visually appealing. Overall, 10/10 would recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a tech fan, and Pixel 8a impressed me. It's the only phone made by Google with AI, making it super smart and helpful. It has a big screen and good display quality. The AI features make daily tasks easier, like predicting text and improving photos, or finding information from the photos. It’s a good device, for work or fun, reliable and easy to use.

Great camera!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Amazing product! Ease of use 10/10. I set it up in less than 5 minutes, just have to transfer data from Gmail. Its super sturdy and the display is bright and vibrant. The camera quality is insane, it looks clearer than my own eyesight. Plus the battery came charged and has lasted me for 2+ hrs now and only depleted about 10%

A great mid-range option!
on May 26, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Pixel 8a is an excellent overall offering from Google in the mid-range sector of the industry. With an all-day battery, a wide range of great performance features and minimal detractors, this phone makes for a very easy recommendation as the best among its competition.
The 8a is designed well, with round corners and a prominent camera housing. The “Aloe” green color looks great and is a fun addition to a smartphone world full of dull colors. While I didn’t find the materials and finish exactly like a flagship phone, it comes close, and the build quality is great for the price point.
As for the part of the phone you’ll be looking at the whole time, the 8a delivers with an impressive OLED display, complete with a high refresh rate (up to 120 hz), vibrant yet balanced colors, and the ability to get bright enough while out in the sun. The screen is on the smaller side in today’s age of giant screens, with thicker bezels that make it easier to notice. However, the 8a screen’s vibrance and fluidity make it as enjoyable a panel as any I’ve gotten to use.
A not-so-hidden secret of the Pixel line is the quality of the cameras, and the 8a is no exception. A combination of a good set of camera sensors and the phone’s Tensor G3 chip allow for some great software tricks and put this phone’s camera setup among the very best in the industry, no matter the price range. This is especially true in the photo department, where Google’s image processing shines brightest, delivering, some of the sharpest, best colored, most accurate shots out there. On the video side of things, the phone is less impressive than with its photos, and it’s camera hardware differences from the “Pro” are more discernible. However, I find it still has the ability to take videos comparable to what you get in more expensive phones. All in all, the 8a’s camera package packs a punch way above its price range.
Part of what makes the cameras performance so well is Google’s use of various software and AI tricks. Color correction, editing and audio features ensure that the Pixel is always delivering the best videos and images possible. These advantages exist outside of the camera system as well, with very smart search functions, and the best live speech recognition and transcription I’ve used on any phone, including during phone calls and voice memos. Google is also shipping the phone with its new Gemini AI, an assistant well on its way to being much more powerful than assistants like Siri, Alexa, etc. The Pixel line just has features other phones don’t have, keeping afloat its standing as having the smartest phones in the industry.
There just might not be a better overall package in the segment. Throw in Google’s 7-years of software updates, plus the frequent discounts, and the Pixel 8a has everything to be the perfect smartphone for the money.
