Screen Size

The diagonal of the mobile screen in inches. Modern smartphones tend to have screens of 6 inches and above.
Wireless Charging

Ability to charge with a compatible wireless charger.
Battery Capacity

The battery capacity indicates the duration of use of your mobile without charging.

It is measured in mAh - a larger number usually indicates greater autonomy, always in combination with the usage and features of the device.

For example, a mobile with a 4000 mAh battery lasts about a day with normal use.

With 5000 mAh or more, you comfortably have autonomy for the whole day, even with heavier use (such as video or games).

If you often use your mobile for video, gaming, or work on the go, choose a device with a large battery (5000 mAh and above) for more autonomy and less dependence on the charger!
Rear Camera Lenses

Wide Angle 64MP

The wide-angle lens offers a larger field of view than our eyes and is usually the default lens used when opening the camera application. The most common resolution is 12MP.

Ultra Wide Angle 13MP

The ultra-wide lens offers a much wider angle of view than our eyes and is typically used for indoor shots to fit more people into a photo. 2. Ultra-wide lenses may distort the subject of the photo at the edges. The most common resolutions are 8MP and 12MP.

I got it to replace my old Pixel 2, which I was super satisfied with! The main reason I chose Pixel is that I can easily install another operating system. More specifically, I installed GrapheneOS, which has been working perfectly for the 5 months I've had it.

Its drawbacks include:
1) I think it is heavier than similar phones. Of course, it might just be my impression, because I'm comparing it to the Pixel 2 which was super light (and much older, of course, of course).

2) I think its battery could last a bit longer. I don't know why this is, because the Pixel 2 was fantastic even after 3 years of daily use. Maybe it's because Google now uses its own processors (Tensor) which are not so optimized (yet)?

3) The lack of the pressure sensor! It was one of my favorite sensors on the Pixel 2, because I used it to turn on the flashlight. It was like having a real flashlight! Whereas now, I have to turn on the screen and tap the flashlight icon...

Its advantages are many, but as I said at the beginning, for me the main thing is that I can easily install an alternative operating system (that respects my privacy). Surely this can be done on other phones too, but for Pixels there are extensive instructions and you can easily find support if you get stuck.

In case you are not interested in changing the operating system (wrongly, in my opinion!), the biggest advantage of a Pixel is its operating system (surprisingly)! And that's because it's much cleaner compared to others, since it has no bloatware at all. Only Google's own apps and nothing else!

Also, everyone talks about the photos that Pixels take but I don't take photos so I don't know how amazing they are. Additionally (and more importantly) because I installed GrapheneOS, I have deleted Google's own app, which is what makes the difference in photos!

Many times it doesn't get a signal, resulting in people calling you and your phone not ringing. We're talking about a problem where about 1 in 3 calls don't go through. Also, its UI is not the best, I prefer Samsung's. Good photos as expected from Pixel, but it's not night and day compared to other phones (this is more because others have improved, not because Pixel has gotten worse).

Update: 1 in 3 are the calls that actually go through, it's ridiculous. If a phone doesn't have signal, it's useless.

I have had the phone for three months, before I had a Xiaomi and I was not satisfied. I got this specific phone for its camera. Indeed, I am very satisfied in this regard. The only reason I give it four stars is that it is difficult to find spare parts and accessories. The protective film and case were sourced from Skroutz, I couldn't find them in any physical store! But the worst part is that it fell and the screen broke. You can't find imitation screens and affordable solutions, and almost everyone refuses to take it! I found one chain that accepts it and the cost is 150 euros! So I don't know if I would recommend you to buy it.

I expected the camera to be much better even for this price, since it is advertised as the best budget camera; otherwise, it is small enough, fast, and the battery barely lasts a day

This review is about the colour: Black

For many years I had Xiaomi phones, the latest being the Redmi Note 10s, and recently I was considering purchasing this phone, but I was troubled by some negative reviews I read here. After having it in my hands for 1.5 months, I want to clarify that it is an excellent phone and anyone who is "thinking about it" should just proceed confidently with the purchase!
At first, I must say that I was taken aback by some differences between the pure Android from Google and the MIUI Android that I was used to with Xiaomi. I might even still believe that 1-2 aspects of MIUI offer better ergonomics. However, these are also matters of habit.
Holding the Google Pixel 7a in your hands, you feel its premium build, and visually I really like it with the screen that fills the panel. In use, it is truly fast and never disappoints. Its photos are simply e-x-c-e-l-l-e-n-t and compared to my previous phones, it's like night and day. Its battery lasts 1-2 days depending on usage, and regarding the charging, which has been discussed a lot, I have to say that I encountered absolutely no problems and it charges quickly, depending on the capabilities of the charger.

I think it's a very honest phone with an amazing camera for its price. The battery lasts a day with normal use. If I had to find something negative, it would be a) that it doesn't include a charger, only a cable, and b) the brightness of the screen; I believe it could be a bit stronger in daylight. I bought it without VAT for €270, an excellent purchase!

I'm back after 1 month of use. The phone hasn't frozen even once, it works perfectly, it has an excellent speaker! The only thing that bothers me is the brightness in outdoor sunlight; even in the shade, I put it on full brightness and I'm not that satisfied.

Nice design, normal size, does not lag during use, very powerful cameras that take perfect photos in combination with the Google editing program that is already installed are simply perfect! The battery lasts about a day and a half, depending on usage. Negatively, the device heats up a bit if you use it a little more (YouTube, Netflix, games, etc.) and the call quality is average. Finally, do not expect a charger inside, only the cable is included. Nevertheless, I give it 5 stars because it is very convenient, simple, fast, and easy to use, takes wonderful photos, and is beautiful in blue color at least.

This review is about the colour: Black

Owner of the 7a for about 1.5 months and previously had the 6a, so I will say some things in comparison to the 6a!
The phone is fast with very good photo and software editing (like the 6a and all the pixels).
But the most important thing that I didn't have with the previous phone is the 5g, volte, and vowifi, which now all work perfectly with Nova!
The fingerprint has improved a lot and now it also has face recognition that works correctly (the 6a didn't have).
The only small complaint is the battery that barely lasts a day without games!
So now that companies have solved the issue of services that the pixels used to suffer from in this area, the only issue that remains is the official introduction, which I think will not be delayed and will be resolved.
So for someone who dares to buy it (due to the fear of official service), they will not regret it at all!

I was scared by the comments about the fingerprint. It works fine and always recognizes, just like the face unlock (with good lighting). Since I've only had it for two days, I will update once I have a clear opinion. For now, though, I am excited. Especially about its size, as most are now slippers!

This review is about the colour: Black

The review has emerged after six months of use.

-----------------------------

Positive:
. * Camera (photo and video)—the strong point of the phone. Indeed, the photos and videos are of high quality from the automatic settings of GCam, and incomparably superior to those taken by devices close to the price of the Pixel 7a—especially the video does not find it close to the price of the pixel.
. * Stock Android. No installed apps, no ads.
. * Size. Convenient size without being bulky like many phones of the era.
. * Battery. Unlike what most say about the battery, for me who do not use the phone for games and social media, but for everything else, my battery lasts most of the time the whole day (24 hours).
---------------------------
Negative:
. * Fingerprint unlock. It is simply UNACCEPTABLE. It works one out of seven times—and maybe I'm being generous. Without a screen protector it might work better, but I wouldn't risk using it without a screen protector.
. * Charging. It does not have fast charging, however I wouldn't say it's particularly slow either.
. * Absence of a 3.5mm headphone jack.
. * The package does not include a charger.
---------------------------
Some (more) personal observations:
. * Sound during calls. I don't know if I got a defective product, but during calls, sometimes, a sound like a knock is heard in the earpiece.
. * Absence of IR Blaster. This is a personal observation, since my previous phone had it, but in any case, it could have an IR Blaster so you can use the phone as a remote control—a feature that most Xiaomis have at much lower prices. As I mentioned, I had it and it's convenient.

--------------------------

The phone is good—especially for €400 it's a good deal.

This review is about the colour: Black

This mobile phone is chosen purely and solely for the camera. The reason is that this camera is not found at all for this money. (and besides the fact that it takes very good photos, Google's processing takes them to another level, making them a different photo from the original) it competes with an equivalent iPhone that costs twice as much. The battery is average. It takes a while to charge but lasts all day. One very annoying thing - the fingerprint sensor. Half the time it doesn't work, otherwise you have to enter a code. On other phones it would unlock before you even touched it properly, this one requires careful clicking and if---- anyone who is passionate and knowledgeable about photography I don't think they will regret it. As for calls, everything is fine for now

The phone is definitely worth 100% of its money, especially if you catch it on sale. It is a flagship quality, with the software and hardware showing exactly that in every aspect you try it. An easy "hack" is to set the screen to 90Hz, it will consume battery but completely changes the navigation. It comes factory set at 60 Hz, but if you try it at 90 you simply won't go back. My only complaint is that the Messenger bubbles don't work, and it's absolutely annoying. I haven't found a solution so far, from what I read online it's a pretty common issue they have since Android 14 came out, so I hope they fix it in the future. Oh, and it supports 5G normally from December 23!

One of the top value-for-money smartphones on the market. Honestly, I don't know what the hell is going on and why Google doesn't have actual support in Greece (probably some exclusive agreement with Samsung or Xiaomi), but thank god we can order it through Skroutz. A smartphone that easily competes with others worth €1000+. It simply rocks!

It was critically important for me to have 2 SIM cards. I planned to use the first one as a physical one and the second one as an eSIM. But the sim card just couldn't activate. There are quite a few topics in Google on the topic that they cannot connect eSim card to a Google pixel. I tried all the solutions and nothing worked for me (manual input of course I tried). This was important to me, so keep in mind that there may be problems with eSIM

As the owner of Nexus 5X and Pixel 4a, I declare myself very satisfied with the Pixel mobiles. I have experienced very few problems in almost 7 years, and with the 4a, I haven't had any. Naturally, my next choice was the Pixel 7a, which was purchased from abroad.
The Android version it has (14) is very close to the one that the 4a had (13), which for me was super familiar, as well as the transfer of applications from one phone to another, which was very fast and easy. In terms of size, it is considerably larger and heavier (193.5 g compared to 143 g). However, it has a much better screen, much better - and tangible - build quality, better sound - including HD Voice support in calls (indicated), always recognized fingerprint (the 4a had an issue), 5G (see image), and a normal battery that lasts over a day with normal usage (not gaming).
These are my observations after two weeks of use. At €400, I believe it is a good choice for stock Android with updates and support, and the - classically - top-notch camera in this price range. It also has a nice appearance in this series.

Unfortunately, I have a problem with the android. Since July 2023, when I bought it, I have a problem with the Bluetooth. The call termination sound cannot be heard from the hands-free and it no longer detects the program I was listening to in the car. From what I have seen, other users have a similar problem. In the end, they fix something and break something else

This review is about the colour: Black

Starting with my previous phone, it was the Redmi Note 8, which was a cheap phone that costs less than 200 euros. It broke and I had to quickly change my phone because I didn't have any other spare to use. I ended up with the Pixel 7a on the advice of a friend because it is a relatively small phone, which suits me, and it has an incredible camera and software. All of this is true and more, the software is awesome, fast, and simple, and the camera is amazing (sometimes when there is poor lighting and you take a photo, it looks like you have applied a filter, something that I only encounter in the selfie camera, but this happens because it uses a lot of AI to capture the best possible photos, which is not a bad thing but keep it in mind). The size of the phone is convenient for me because I have small hands and I don't like holding a huge phone. The screen displays nice colors and is smooth with the 90Hz refresh rate. The phone's speaker is very nice, but not as loud. At first, the sound seemed strange to me, but then I got used to it and realized that it produces vibrant and clear sound with bass. It is worth mentioning that the screen brightness is not that good, in sunlight, you have to set it to the maximum in specific cases, but it's not a big issue.

You should know that the only downside to Pixel phones is that it is difficult to find spare parts in Greece. It is impossible for me to find anything for my phone (case and screen protector) here. Also, there is no WiFi calling, which doesn't bother me personally, but there are people who need it (nor 5G). One last thing, the battery will last you a day for everyday use like social media browsing, music, and light gaming.

My advice is for those who are not in a hurry to wait and see at what price the Pixel 8 will reach or in case the 8a is released, consider getting those. Otherwise, look for the Pixel 7a and iPhone, in my opinion, these two companies produce the best phones (there are some exceptions with Samsung)

The only problem I encountered was that in calls longer than 10 minutes, the sound quality deteriorated to the point where you had to hang up. With the installation of pixel ims and the activation of volte and vowifi, it is flawless. My battery lasts 2 days with several calls and about 4 hours of surfing/social media per day. The size is fine, although personally I would prefer it to be slightly smaller. The quality is great and what I like is that you can feel the buttons when pressed.

Only flaw is that it does mirroring ONLY through Chromecast. Practically, you can't do mirroring almost anywhere else. Other than that, it is the best value for money in the mid-range category for 2023.

This review is about the colour: Black

I have had the phone for 3 months now and I am quite satisfied. It has not experienced a single lag. The overheating issue that was mentioned for the 7 series disappeared after the first update, at least in the 7a. You can handle it quickly without any freezing and the device stays cool. Clean Android software from the mother company without any ads popping up on the screen like in other brands.

- AMAZING camera that you can't find in many more expensive phones. It takes beautiful photos and in low light conditions, which is not easily found. The video is decent without being shaky, better than the previous model 6a.
- Flexible software with an "intelligent" AI processor that specializes in AI. You can communicate with the device hands-free. Hopefully, Google will add Greek language FINALLY in some update.
- Only 4G signal for now in Greece for the pixels, but I don't care at all since it is crystal clear and works everywhere.
- The battery is average but not bad as the software helps it. It lasts a day of use without any worries. The downside is that it doesn't charge quickly, but you always lose something if you don't spend 1000 euros.
- The size of 6.1 inches is ideal for me, as everything else seems like slippers.
- The speakers are decent. The microphone performs well in sound recordings.

This review is about the colour: Black

In Greece, WiFi calling does not work out of the box, it needs to be enabled with separate apps. Look for shizuku, pixel ims, and cosmote to see the process. Where I live, I have a big problem with the signal, so I use WiFi calling a lot, and until I manage to get it working again, I suffer. The battery, without playing games and with simple browsing and a few videos and music, lasts me a day and something. Overall, compared to the poco x3 pro that I had, for the simple usage I do, I feel like it was better and it's a phone that is 2-3 years older. If I had researched it better, I probably wouldn't buy it again. The fingerprint sensor works 1 out of 2 times. I have scanned my finger 4 times for it to be reliable. In terms of photos, videos, speed, and screen, it is flawless. P.S: The stock Android without the unnecessary apps of the respective manufacturer like Mi, Samsung, etc. is invaluable.

This review is about the colour: Black

The mobile phone is good if you know what you're getting beforehand. For better or worse, in such mid-range phones there is no longer one that has it all, you lose something somewhere and gain something somewhere else. Its main advantage is its operating system, clean android, which is incredible compared to other loaded ones like Xiaomi. The charging speed is relatively slow and its battery is average. Its screen is good but it has large bezels and personally, they are a bit annoying. The fingerprint sensor is irritating. 5G doesn't work yet but now there is Volte normally. Its speaker is stereo, quite loud and satisfactory. Its camera is very good, especially if you explore the options it gives you. The main problem for me is its price and the small difference it has with the Pixel 7. If it was priced around 400 euros, it would be a very good choice.

Only negative is the battery, which is not tragic. With moderate use, it lasts over a day.

I got it to replace my old Pixel 2, which I was super satisfied with! The main reason I chose Pixel is that I can easily install another operating system. More specifically, I installed GrapheneOS, which has been working perfectly for the 5 months I've had it.

Its drawbacks include:
1) I think it is heavier than similar phones. Of course, it might just be my impression, because I'm comparing it to the Pixel 2 which was super light (and much older, of course, of course).

2) I think its battery could last a bit longer. I don't know why this is, because the Pixel 2 was fantastic even after 3 years of daily use. Maybe it's because Google now uses its own processors (Tensor) which are not so optimized (yet)?

3) The lack of the pressure sensor! It was one of my favorite sensors on the Pixel 2, because I used it to turn on the flashlight. It was like having a real flashlight! Whereas now, I have to turn on the screen and tap the flashlight icon...

Its advantages are many, but as I said at the beginning, for me the main thing is that I can easily install an alternative operating system (that respects my privacy). Surely this can be done on other phones too, but for Pixels there are extensive instructions and you can easily find support if you get stuck.

In case you are not interested in changing the operating system (wrongly, in my opinion!), the biggest advantage of a Pixel is its operating system (surprisingly)! And that's because it's much cleaner compared to others, since it has no bloatware at all. Only Google's own apps and nothing else!

Also, everyone talks about the photos that Pixels take but I don't take photos so I don't know how amazing they are. Additionally (and more importantly) because I installed GrapheneOS, I have deleted Google's own app, which is what makes the difference in photos!

Many times it doesn't get a signal, resulting in people calling you and your phone not ringing. We're talking about a problem where about 1 in 3 calls don't go through. Also, its UI is not the best, I prefer Samsung's. Good photos as expected from Pixel, but it's not night and day compared to other phones (this is more because others have improved, not because Pixel has gotten worse).

Update: 1 in 3 are the calls that actually go through, it's ridiculous. If a phone doesn't have signal, it's useless.

I have had the phone for three months, before I had a Xiaomi and I was not satisfied. I got this specific phone for its camera. Indeed, I am very satisfied in this regard. The only reason I give it four stars is that it is difficult to find spare parts and accessories. The protective film and case were sourced from Skroutz, I couldn't find them in any physical store! But the worst part is that it fell and the screen broke. You can't find imitation screens and affordable solutions, and almost everyone refuses to take it! I found one chain that accepts it and the cost is 150 euros! So I don't know if I would recommend you to buy it.

I expected the camera to be much better even for this price, since it is advertised as the best budget camera; otherwise, it is small enough, fast, and the battery barely lasts a day

This review is about the colour: Black

For many years I had Xiaomi phones, the latest being the Redmi Note 10s, and recently I was considering purchasing this phone, but I was troubled by some negative reviews I read here. After having it in my hands for 1.5 months, I want to clarify that it is an excellent phone and anyone who is "thinking about it" should just proceed confidently with the purchase!
At first, I must say that I was taken aback by some differences between the pure Android from Google and the MIUI Android that I was used to with Xiaomi. I might even still believe that 1-2 aspects of MIUI offer better ergonomics. However, these are also matters of habit.
Holding the Google Pixel 7a in your hands, you feel its premium build, and visually I really like it with the screen that fills the panel. In use, it is truly fast and never disappoints. Its photos are simply e-x-c-e-l-l-e-n-t and compared to my previous phones, it's like night and day. Its battery lasts 1-2 days depending on usage, and regarding the charging, which has been discussed a lot, I have to say that I encountered absolutely no problems and it charges quickly, depending on the capabilities of the charger.

I think it's a very honest phone with an amazing camera for its price. The battery lasts a day with normal use. If I had to find something negative, it would be a) that it doesn't include a charger, only a cable, and b) the brightness of the screen; I believe it could be a bit stronger in daylight. I bought it without VAT for €270, an excellent purchase!

I'm back after 1 month of use. The phone hasn't frozen even once, it works perfectly, it has an excellent speaker! The only thing that bothers me is the brightness in outdoor sunlight; even in the shade, I put it on full brightness and I'm not that satisfied.

Nice design, normal size, does not lag during use, very powerful cameras that take perfect photos in combination with the Google editing program that is already installed are simply perfect! The battery lasts about a day and a half, depending on usage. Negatively, the device heats up a bit if you use it a little more (YouTube, Netflix, games, etc.) and the call quality is average. Finally, do not expect a charger inside, only the cable is included. Nevertheless, I give it 5 stars because it is very convenient, simple, fast, and easy to use, takes wonderful photos, and is beautiful in blue color at least.

This review is about the colour: Black

Owner of the 7a for about 1.5 months and previously had the 6a, so I will say some things in comparison to the 6a!
The phone is fast with very good photo and software editing (like the 6a and all the pixels).
But the most important thing that I didn't have with the previous phone is the 5g, volte, and vowifi, which now all work perfectly with Nova!
The fingerprint has improved a lot and now it also has face recognition that works correctly (the 6a didn't have).
The only small complaint is the battery that barely lasts a day without games!
So now that companies have solved the issue of services that the pixels used to suffer from in this area, the only issue that remains is the official introduction, which I think will not be delayed and will be resolved.
So for someone who dares to buy it (due to the fear of official service), they will not regret it at all!

I was scared by the comments about the fingerprint. It works fine and always recognizes, just like the face unlock (with good lighting). Since I've only had it for two days, I will update once I have a clear opinion. For now, though, I am excited. Especially about its size, as most are now slippers!

This review is about the colour: Black

The review has emerged after six months of use.

-----------------------------

Positive:
. * Camera (photo and video)—the strong point of the phone. Indeed, the photos and videos are of high quality from the automatic settings of GCam, and incomparably superior to those taken by devices close to the price of the Pixel 7a—especially the video does not find it close to the price of the pixel.
. * Stock Android. No installed apps, no ads.
. * Size. Convenient size without being bulky like many phones of the era.
. * Battery. Unlike what most say about the battery, for me who do not use the phone for games and social media, but for everything else, my battery lasts most of the time the whole day (24 hours).
---------------------------
Negative:
. * Fingerprint unlock. It is simply UNACCEPTABLE. It works one out of seven times—and maybe I'm being generous. Without a screen protector it might work better, but I wouldn't risk using it without a screen protector.
. * Charging. It does not have fast charging, however I wouldn't say it's particularly slow either.
. * Absence of a 3.5mm headphone jack.
. * The package does not include a charger.
---------------------------
Some (more) personal observations:
. * Sound during calls. I don't know if I got a defective product, but during calls, sometimes, a sound like a knock is heard in the earpiece.
. * Absence of IR Blaster. This is a personal observation, since my previous phone had it, but in any case, it could have an IR Blaster so you can use the phone as a remote control—a feature that most Xiaomis have at much lower prices. As I mentioned, I had it and it's convenient.

--------------------------

The phone is good—especially for €400 it's a good deal.

This review is about the colour: Black

This mobile phone is chosen purely and solely for the camera. The reason is that this camera is not found at all for this money. (and besides the fact that it takes very good photos, Google's processing takes them to another level, making them a different photo from the original) it competes with an equivalent iPhone that costs twice as much. The battery is average. It takes a while to charge but lasts all day. One very annoying thing - the fingerprint sensor. Half the time it doesn't work, otherwise you have to enter a code. On other phones it would unlock before you even touched it properly, this one requires careful clicking and if---- anyone who is passionate and knowledgeable about photography I don't think they will regret it. As for calls, everything is fine for now

The phone is definitely worth 100% of its money, especially if you catch it on sale. It is a flagship quality, with the software and hardware showing exactly that in every aspect you try it. An easy "hack" is to set the screen to 90Hz, it will consume battery but completely changes the navigation. It comes factory set at 60 Hz, but if you try it at 90 you simply won't go back. My only complaint is that the Messenger bubbles don't work, and it's absolutely annoying. I haven't found a solution so far, from what I read online it's a pretty common issue they have since Android 14 came out, so I hope they fix it in the future. Oh, and it supports 5G normally from December 23!

One of the top value-for-money smartphones on the market. Honestly, I don't know what the hell is going on and why Google doesn't have actual support in Greece (probably some exclusive agreement with Samsung or Xiaomi), but thank god we can order it through Skroutz. A smartphone that easily competes with others worth €1000+. It simply rocks!

It was critically important for me to have 2 SIM cards. I planned to use the first one as a physical one and the second one as an eSIM. But the sim card just couldn't activate. There are quite a few topics in Google on the topic that they cannot connect eSim card to a Google pixel. I tried all the solutions and nothing worked for me (manual input of course I tried). This was important to me, so keep in mind that there may be problems with eSIM

As the owner of Nexus 5X and Pixel 4a, I declare myself very satisfied with the Pixel mobiles. I have experienced very few problems in almost 7 years, and with the 4a, I haven't had any. Naturally, my next choice was the Pixel 7a, which was purchased from abroad.
The Android version it has (14) is very close to the one that the 4a had (13), which for me was super familiar, as well as the transfer of applications from one phone to another, which was very fast and easy. In terms of size, it is considerably larger and heavier (193.5 g compared to 143 g). However, it has a much better screen, much better - and tangible - build quality, better sound - including HD Voice support in calls (indicated), always recognized fingerprint (the 4a had an issue), 5G (see image), and a normal battery that lasts over a day with normal usage (not gaming).
These are my observations after two weeks of use. At €400, I believe it is a good choice for stock Android with updates and support, and the - classically - top-notch camera in this price range. It also has a nice appearance in this series.

Unfortunately, I have a problem with the android. Since July 2023, when I bought it, I have a problem with the Bluetooth. The call termination sound cannot be heard from the hands-free and it no longer detects the program I was listening to in the car. From what I have seen, other users have a similar problem. In the end, they fix something and break something else

This review is about the colour: Black

Starting with my previous phone, it was the Redmi Note 8, which was a cheap phone that costs less than 200 euros. It broke and I had to quickly change my phone because I didn't have any other spare to use. I ended up with the Pixel 7a on the advice of a friend because it is a relatively small phone, which suits me, and it has an incredible camera and software. All of this is true and more, the software is awesome, fast, and simple, and the camera is amazing (sometimes when there is poor lighting and you take a photo, it looks like you have applied a filter, something that I only encounter in the selfie camera, but this happens because it uses a lot of AI to capture the best possible photos, which is not a bad thing but keep it in mind). The size of the phone is convenient for me because I have small hands and I don't like holding a huge phone. The screen displays nice colors and is smooth with the 90Hz refresh rate. The phone's speaker is very nice, but not as loud. At first, the sound seemed strange to me, but then I got used to it and realized that it produces vibrant and clear sound with bass. It is worth mentioning that the screen brightness is not that good, in sunlight, you have to set it to the maximum in specific cases, but it's not a big issue.

You should know that the only downside to Pixel phones is that it is difficult to find spare parts in Greece. It is impossible for me to find anything for my phone (case and screen protector) here. Also, there is no WiFi calling, which doesn't bother me personally, but there are people who need it (nor 5G). One last thing, the battery will last you a day for everyday use like social media browsing, music, and light gaming.

My advice is for those who are not in a hurry to wait and see at what price the Pixel 8 will reach or in case the 8a is released, consider getting those. Otherwise, look for the Pixel 7a and iPhone, in my opinion, these two companies produce the best phones (there are some exceptions with Samsung)

The only problem I encountered was that in calls longer than 10 minutes, the sound quality deteriorated to the point where you had to hang up. With the installation of pixel ims and the activation of volte and vowifi, it is flawless. My battery lasts 2 days with several calls and about 4 hours of surfing/social media per day. The size is fine, although personally I would prefer it to be slightly smaller. The quality is great and what I like is that you can feel the buttons when pressed.

Only flaw is that it does mirroring ONLY through Chromecast. Practically, you can't do mirroring almost anywhere else. Other than that, it is the best value for money in the mid-range category for 2023.

This review is about the colour: Black

I have had the phone for 3 months now and I am quite satisfied. It has not experienced a single lag. The overheating issue that was mentioned for the 7 series disappeared after the first update, at least in the 7a. You can handle it quickly without any freezing and the device stays cool. Clean Android software from the mother company without any ads popping up on the screen like in other brands.

- AMAZING camera that you can't find in many more expensive phones. It takes beautiful photos and in low light conditions, which is not easily found. The video is decent without being shaky, better than the previous model 6a.
- Flexible software with an "intelligent" AI processor that specializes in AI. You can communicate with the device hands-free. Hopefully, Google will add Greek language FINALLY in some update.
- Only 4G signal for now in Greece for the pixels, but I don't care at all since it is crystal clear and works everywhere.
- The battery is average but not bad as the software helps it. It lasts a day of use without any worries. The downside is that it doesn't charge quickly, but you always lose something if you don't spend 1000 euros.
- The size of 6.1 inches is ideal for me, as everything else seems like slippers.
- The speakers are decent. The microphone performs well in sound recordings.

This review is about the colour: Black

In Greece, WiFi calling does not work out of the box, it needs to be enabled with separate apps. Look for shizuku, pixel ims, and cosmote to see the process. Where I live, I have a big problem with the signal, so I use WiFi calling a lot, and until I manage to get it working again, I suffer. The battery, without playing games and with simple browsing and a few videos and music, lasts me a day and something. Overall, compared to the poco x3 pro that I had, for the simple usage I do, I feel like it was better and it's a phone that is 2-3 years older. If I had researched it better, I probably wouldn't buy it again. The fingerprint sensor works 1 out of 2 times. I have scanned my finger 4 times for it to be reliable. In terms of photos, videos, speed, and screen, it is flawless. P.S: The stock Android without the unnecessary apps of the respective manufacturer like Mi, Samsung, etc. is invaluable.

This review is about the colour: Black

The mobile phone is good if you know what you're getting beforehand. For better or worse, in such mid-range phones there is no longer one that has it all, you lose something somewhere and gain something somewhere else. Its main advantage is its operating system, clean android, which is incredible compared to other loaded ones like Xiaomi. The charging speed is relatively slow and its battery is average. Its screen is good but it has large bezels and personally, they are a bit annoying. The fingerprint sensor is irritating. 5G doesn't work yet but now there is Volte normally. Its speaker is stereo, quite loud and satisfactory. Its camera is very good, especially if you explore the options it gives you. The main problem for me is its price and the small difference it has with the Pixel 7. If it was priced around 400 euros, it would be a very good choice.

Only negative is the battery, which is not tragic. With moderate use, it lasts over a day.

I got it to replace my old Pixel 2, which I was super satisfied with! The main reason I chose Pixel is that I can easily install another operating system. More specifically, I installed GrapheneOS, which has been working perfectly for the 5 months I've had it.

Its drawbacks include:
1) I think it is heavier than similar phones. Of course, it might just be my impression, because I'm comparing it to the Pixel 2 which was super light (and much older, of course, of course).

2) I think its battery could last a bit longer. I don't know why this is, because the Pixel 2 was fantastic even after 3 years of daily use. Maybe it's because Google now uses its own processors (Tensor) which are not so optimized (yet)?

3) The lack of the pressure sensor! It was one of my favorite sensors on the Pixel 2, because I used it to turn on the flashlight. It was like having a real flashlight! Whereas now, I have to turn on the screen and tap the flashlight icon...

Its advantages are many, but as I said at the beginning, for me the main thing is that I can easily install an alternative operating system (that respects my privacy). Surely this can be done on other phones too, but for Pixels there are extensive instructions and you can easily find support if you get stuck.

In case you are not interested in changing the operating system (wrongly, in my opinion!), the biggest advantage of a Pixel is its operating system (surprisingly)! And that's because it's much cleaner compared to others, since it has no bloatware at all. Only Google's own apps and nothing else!

Also, everyone talks about the photos that Pixels take but I don't take photos so I don't know how amazing they are. Additionally (and more importantly) because I installed GrapheneOS, I have deleted Google's own app, which is what makes the difference in photos!

I bought it only for the camera and I was absolutely satisfied. At 330, which is what I paid for it, I think it was the best choice.

Many times it doesn't get a signal, resulting in people calling you and your phone not ringing. We're talking about a problem where about 1 in 3 calls don't go through. Also, its UI is not the best, I prefer Samsung's. Good photos as expected from Pixel, but it's not night and day compared to other phones (this is more because others have improved, not because Pixel has gotten worse).

Update: 1 in 3 are the calls that actually go through, it's ridiculous. If a phone doesn't have signal, it's useless.

Brand new in the box and now with an extra 2 years of support from Google for just over 300 euros. Hard to beat.

I have had the phone for three months, before I had a Xiaomi and I was not satisfied. I got this specific phone for its camera. Indeed, I am very satisfied in this regard. The only reason I give it four stars is that it is difficult to find spare parts and accessories. The protective film and case were sourced from Skroutz, I couldn't find them in any physical store! But the worst part is that it fell and the screen broke. You can't find imitation screens and affordable solutions, and almost everyone refuses to take it! I found one chain that accepts it and the cost is 150 euros! So I don't know if I would recommend you to buy it.
