Price-wise, get the pixel 6. pay a bit more and get a better h/w

I have been using for the past few days.

I feel it is a worthy upgrade coming from P4. The fingerprint sensor is godsend as compared to facial.

Screen is slightly bigger but can still fit on my running armband.

Considering the slow on-screen fingerprint sensor and camera bump, I think I will skip the P6.

hello, am considering getting the 5a. i like the design more than the 6. was wondering how your experiences are with the phone? have been seeing comments on reddit/youtube comments about overheating even when doing regular tasks like taking ig stories/snapchat videos, not just the 4k60 thing. also saw ambient temp can cause the phone to overheat, how does the phone hold up in our weather? thanks!

I put a plastic casing. So cannot really feel the heat.

Still a bit buggy. some features and battery drain seem to be quite common amongst the complaints

I don't think can last for me.

No gaming. Just 1-2hr YT and browsing.

I am charging little bit during day.

Give both options the best.

I miss the face unlock too but when wearing a mask, the finger is better.
