Here’s how the Google Pixel 6A compares to its biggest competitors

Pixel 6A is the latest phone that joins the competitive top level of mid-range phones, also occupied by Samsung, Apple and others. Google announced the new phone on the scene of its I / O 2022 key report, describing just a few key things about it. The first thing you need to know: don’t go out right away. Unlike how many announcements are happening as products are on their way to retailers, this will not be available for pre-order until July 21, 2022, and orders will be shipped next week.

Not surprisingly, this new (and smaller) 6.1-inch Pixel phone borrows much of the same design features from the more expensive Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro, with a raised camera section and a two-tone color scheme. The Pixel 6A is a big deal, as it is the first mid-range phone from Google to come with a Tensor processor instead of a Qualcomm processor. It will be available in several colors, but will come with the same 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage, no matter which one you buy.

In case you are curious how the Pixel 6A can be combined with competing devices such as Samsung’s Galaxy A53 5G and iPhone SE (third generation) and how it improves compared to the latest generation Pixel 5A, we have built this post just for you.

Correction May 11, 5:30 pm ET: The specification comparison table states that the Pixel 6A will support wireless charging, but does not. We have updated the table and we are sorry for the error.
