Pixel 6a is emerging as one of the most promising smartphones of the year. With a leading chip-class system priced at $ 450, Google seems to be making a solid move with the iPhone SE. After the announcement on Thursday, several more details came out, which did not contribute to the main ones.
First, the Pixel 6a will be the broadest edition of Google’s smartphones to date, with a small difference. Remember that the version of Pixel 5a was the smallest so far on Google, launching in only two countries, the United States and Japan. The Google Device Support page was updated on Thursday, and Pixel 6a returns to the usual 13 countries to launch Pixel: Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Puerto Rico, Singapore, Spain, Taiwan, United Kingdom, and the United States.
But wait! There’s more: Google also says the Pixel 6a will come to India later this year, bringing it to 14 countries. This is a new record for comparable small (Apple and Samsung ship in over 100 countries) telephone hardware operations. India is a strange choice as it is one of the most competitive global smartphone markets. Google will have to significantly reduce the price of the Pixel 6a to be competitive there. We still don’t know the Indian price, but see the answers to this tweet, which is full of Indian users who are already hauling the phone for its estimated price of $ 450 and is “only” 60Hz. It will be a tough battle.

The second part of the news comes from Android Central, which received confirmation from Google that the Pixel 6a will not use the same fingerprint sensor as the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro. Some people have had a lot of problems with the Pixel 6’s fingerprint sensor, calling it slow and unreliable (although the version of our model looks good), and Google has sent several patches trying to address the complaints. The hope is that the new fingerprint reader will be faster with more reliable operation.
Overall, it seems that Google is taking all the right steps with this phone. The final verdict will be issued when the phone hits the market in July.
