Google Pixel 6a

[xonix]

new pixel 6a user here. The functionalities of the phone look amazing.

But does anyone else feel that the display doesn't seem that bright / seems slightly yellow-ish? I'm comparing it to the xiaomi phone i bought 3 years ago (not even a very advanced model)

So you can confirm it works with SIMBA? Interesting.

It still doesn't work with the 4a, I just tested it.

A little off-topic, with the Dec update now out, is SIMBA calls supported on your 4a without the voice app? Previously saw some news regarding P7Pro being able to make calls with native dialer when enrolled in the QPR1 beta. Dont have a SIMBA SIM to test myself.

I have pixel 4a, and there is a VoLTE toggle in the settings.

Any clear case to recommend other than Spigen? Too bad Ringke doesn't have one for this phone.

If you don't need "branded" ones, plently of choices from all the online shops.

Those using the official 6a case, how's the review? just thinking of getting it and just use it throughout since the 6a is a spare/office phone. never liked Spigen ones.

Hi guys, got a question about the 6A. I read that it supports esim - anyone used the esim for 6A? Any issues?

yes, using it with MyRepublic. Calls & SMSs, both local & roaming works well. Data-wise, a bit of hit & miss. Anyway, for data I use a physical SIM Card from another telco.

Clarifications: the data hit & miss situation with MyRepublic has nothing to do with the phone, rather it is because MR is riding on M1 network and coverage is poor in the areas I frequent.

I did check circles, which is my telco. Apparently it didn't list 6A but listed 6 Pro. While Google website listed 6A as esim enabled.

Sorry if I was asking something sort of an FAQ thing. Haha.

Good to know. Considering to sign up initially but saw on FAQ that CL only support P6P so ended up with MR.

What I noted for 6a so far. Haha the fingerprint sensor really not good. Dunno why after recent security update seems to get worst. Alot of times ended up using pin.

Gaming wise, played immortal.. suddenly the whole phone went crazy keyboard type all the gibberish.
