Google Pixel 4a with 5G - Android Phone - New Unlocked Smartphone with Night Sight and Ultrawide Lens - Clearly White

Now I know why these were on sale here. Does not work on Verizon 5G. Might not work on other 5G networks also ? Its a nice phone, but I bought it to use on Verizons 5G network. Now the sales are over and Im kinda stuck with it unless I want to cough up more $$ to get one that works on 5G. Should have gotten the phone at the Verizon store while they were marked down. Stupid me...... I had tech service try to figure it out a couple of times. Been in the store also. Just had them install another 5G sim card in the phone. Still doesnt work on 5G. UPDATE Just left the verizon store again with a new sim card. I get some 5G in spots now. My buddies Samsung phone is 5G almost all of the time. Mine isnt most of the time and were in the same place. Ive also been getting weaker signals and more dropped calls than my Pixel 2XL that i just retired. This is the first and only time i buy a phone off of a website. I would consider this phone a factory second. If my 2 XL wasnt losing battery capacity, id send the 4A 5G back for a refund.

I will keep this review short and sweet. I got this phone mainly because Qi charging was listed as supported. [17] Qi-compatible. Wireless charger sold separately. No. It is not Qi-compatible. If you want to charge it wirelessly, you need to buy a receiver -- not the same as a charger. Even with a receiver you will still need a charging pad. Ive seen all sorts of misleading information about this feature and Pixel phones. Some even saying that wireless charging support came in around Pixel 3. According to Google -- this phone does not support Qi charging. If you want the wireless charging, get the Pixel 5.

I like everything about this phone only complain i have is that on instagram stories it glitches alot i seen someone post about it too and i didnt think it would be true but it does and i barely have had this phone for 2 days or so and i dont like that because i just switched from iphone to android and i was liking it until i noticed that , i will contact amazon seller and see if i can get thag fixed or ir not then buy a different phone but this was recommended so thats why i bought it. Hope i can get someone to help

Everything works great, migration from my LGv20 was easy using the included cord. It has a headphone jack. Everything is fine. The only complaint (and I should have done a little more research) is the screen is a little smaller than I expected. The LGv20 is specd at 5.7 while the Pixel4a5G is 6.2....but the pixel is 19.5:9 while the older LG is 16:9. I knew this, but I thought the extra 1/2 inch would have more than made up the difference, but I didnt do the math. The end result is the pixel screen is ever so slightly smaller. Most newer phones are going to the 19.5:9, so if you are coming from an older 16:9 phone, be aware.

I havent purchased a new phone since the Note 5 came out. Finally had to get me an upgrade and this phone is full of surprises. I love the fingerprint reader. I also have an iPhone 11 but Im not a fan of the face reader. The battery life is AMAZING. I usually work 10 hour shifts and even with me using Spotify, live YouTube streams and the like i still go home with 50% battery. I love this line of phones.

Im a little biased since i went from an iphone 6 to this but i am pretty blown away. At first i was disappointed in the display and camera and thought it was grainy until my dumb*** took off the protective film that comes on it brand new. The display is clear and great, the camera is just amazing, night sight is spectacular. The photo sphere is brand new tech to me so i love it! Its nice to be back with android again after so many years, i missed the customization of phones including background, app placement, sounds and so on. Finger print sensor isnt new to me, but compared to the iphone, its night and day on speed and performance. Spoiled people complain about the dumbest little things, but in my opinion this is a solid phone. Posted a before and after of night sight used.

Nothing but mobile data problems- hoping it is mobile provider(s) ??? Been thu 2 sim cards and 2 providers so far!! Have set screen touch sensitivity several times, but have to touch icons, etc several times for a response... 90% of the time. Sometimes a pop up gives me options to do different things except go directly to the app I am trying to get to - WHY? Today I am talking on Whatsapp & get a warning the phone is overheating!!! Caller screening never works 2 times in a row. The screen brightness set even at 100% BRIGHTNESS is still impossible to read outside on a sunny day. I am totally unhappy, disappointed, and feel like I have been ripped off spending 0ver $400 on this phone. Amazon did give me a discount for wrong charger that came with it, but now that seems soooo minor. I am 10 days past refund, is there anything I can do for a replacement or a refund??? UPDATE as of May 28 2021... STILL terrible problems with screen sensitivity. And Google even acknowledges it & keeps saying a fix has been sent in a Feb Update - Not on my Pixel 4a 5g. This phone, from what I have read, had some problems from the start, yet Google sold it as though it was a phone in working order. I for one think it should be recalled with the option of refund or replacement. My next phone will not be a Google Pixel I am afraid.

I have to say I really like the phone. BUT when I tried to get service I could not because the unlocked phone I bought from Amazon IS LOCKED and could not be unlocked according to their tech department. Only recourse is to return it. VERY DISAPOINTED. It was the perfect size for my hand. I dont understand how they did not know it was locked. Seems like a lot of things I have bought lately do not match the description on Amazon and land up getting returned. The convience of Amazon is turning into a real hassle.

Phone ringtone is a mess, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesnt, and the worst part is that there isnt vibration either! I have to be looking at phone constantly to know if someone is calling.

I initially tried the Pixel 5 and returned that to Google. Then i waited until the 4A5G was perfected and got it last week. Easy to work with - good size on the various touch pads so i can use it easily. It seems to be the perfect upgrade from my Moto-x4 and i am very glad i got it. It comes packed with a charger . cord and pin device to get access to the sim card tray which is so easy to use. Sound is very good and can get as loud as i want. I am extremely happy with this phone.
