Pretty bad cameras, and don't trust OP for updates. Look at what happened to 7T line. The recent update made the phone almost unusable. When they can f**k up their premium lines, budget line stands no chance. OP has gone to dogshit as a company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They supported 5T for full 3 years even though they didn't promise it. Anyway, I am a pixel fan myself. Convinced both of my brothers to buy Pixel 4a and that price is a steal for that camera alone. But the screen size might not be for everyone, especially if someone is using it as a primary phone. Heck, they even have a decent haptics which I don't think any other phone including Oneplus is providing at this price range. But again, that screen size!

Coming from a 2XL, which was the usual unwieldy phone for bedtime reads and two handed use, I actually love the 4a's screen size. f**king Google moved to larger screen with 5a (size of 4a XL). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VelivolusDas Posted May 17, 2021 Report Share Posted May 17, 2021 Anyone considering the 4a, should just wait a bit for the 5a announcement. Should happen around Google I/O on 18th-20th May. India is one of the first markets to get the A-series phones, so it could be worth waiting to see the pricing at least. If they price it atrociously (like the 3a), then go for the 4a. Otherwise, get the 5a itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Google has explicitly announced very limited release for 5a for now. Maybe it was in error, maybe intentional, will probably get to know tonight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't drop down to a smaller screen. P2XL still getting the job done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyberpunk Posted May 17, 2021 Report Share Posted May 17, 2021 Yeah almost ordered 4a the other day but will wait a bit for Pixel 5a now. Hope Google doesn't screw that up and it's available here soon after launch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordSpymaster Posted May 17, 2021 Report Share Posted May 17, 2021 What's a good phone for parents? I'm looking at a budget of around 15k. No MI phones please, we don't like them. Samsung M31 they have used and liked it but looking for something else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can also look at Motorola's offerings in that budget. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'm gonna go for the 5A. I don't mind a larger screen size. Primary motive is the stock android (I'm coming from an Android One device) and the camera. Hoping for decent pricing. The 4A sales have hopefully convinced them that the budget phone market is open to good pricing for a Pixel device Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
