Do you guys have problem with your touch screen? I'm unable to zoom in websites or pictures using 2 fingers.. Can only double tab it.

Btw we're able to use the NFC function on the shortcut

No issue.

No issue with 2 fingers pinch to zoom in/out on my 4a in Google map...think your unit touchscreen maybe faulty.

I tried what the community suggested to go settings-accessibility - magnifying option.. Still can't. Apparently this happens after system update and happens to a number of users. It's more of software problem. Tried emailing Google see what they reply.

The problem with google are some features only available in us (screen calling), and starred your messages (now only avail in india). and their server side switching ...

OP mentioned using Pixel 4a, maybe a user here too?

If google photo can post process this in its native app ...

 

[ThinkMe]

Maybe charge you more for the service.

What's a good Pixel 4a alternative?

In terms of what ? Camera , Software or SoC ?

Not particular with Camera / SoC.

Cracked my Pixel 4a, thinking which phone to get next.

Probably a Pixel 5a?

If you want to stick with Google, then 5a or 6 / 6XL will be logical options.
But based on rumors, these phones will most likely not be sold in SG officially.
No big deal if you don't about local warranty.

Been using the Pixel 4a raw, pretty good.

Plastic back, wont smudge with finger prints.

Pixel 6 definately is a S$1K++ phone, will only have enough for a Pixel 5a most probably.

As long as Pixel 5a is not anyway bigger then Pixel 4a i might give it a try.

Else i might need to find ways to repair my Pixel 4a screen :/
