Fast, sleek, light, great camera. Superb value! Flagship at low price!
Bought as refurbished-excellent condition for $216 when brand new was selling for $299. The phone came in brand new condition! Very impressed!I love everything about the phone except the battery, which is only good. It lasts the whole day but some days I get close to running out of power. If the battery life were about 20% better I’d say the phone is perfect. Maybe a brand new phone would have a better battery? Reviewers have noticed the Pixel 6a don’t have fantastic battery life too so i don’t think it’s due to my phone being refurbished.Phone is very fast, good display. While only 60hz it’s very nice and a high quality screen. Most apps load in less than two seconds. Haven’t played any games yet but suspect those would perform well too. I have found the in screen fingerprint reader to work very well. Not sure why others have an issue with it being flakey.I’d consider my iPhone 9/10. I’d give the Pixel 6a 8/10. That’s very good, considering the iPhone 14 is a lot more expensive. The Pixel is a great phone value. Flagship features for an affordable price. If you want a great phone that is not going to cost a lot, the Pixel is a great choice.

Phone was locked to Verizon
When trying to install an eSim from Mint mobile I found out that this device was locked to Verizon and unable to add the eSim. Will have to wait 3-5 business days to receive a physical Sim card. This will be difficult since I no will not longer have phone service for up to 5 business days while waiting. Basically anyone that buys a pixel phone has an unlocked phone but the ones purchased through Verizon can still be locked to the carrier with eSim. Hoping Physical sim is the way around this problem. We all know what would happen if you go to a Verizon store and try to describe this mess and get them to unlock the phone MEID is <5% success.

Great value
This smart phone does everything the more expensive ones do. I have no complaints so far. I’m a Pixel fan. The buttons on this may be a little less nice than on the standard Pixel but, they function. The display is clear. It’s almost the same size as the Pixel 4 Plus that it replaced. The battery life isn’t spectacular but, liveable. I don’t know how it will stand the rest of time but, so far so good.

Fingerprint reader is in the front instead of back (unlike Pixel 5)
I upgraded from the Pixel 5A because the motherboard failed, this is a nice simple upgrade, was packaged nicely, almost fully charged, and is a straight out Pixel 6A. No cracks, no malfunctions, everything seems good as of now will update rating if anything suspicious or odd happens.Well worth the price, feels new, looks new, came potentially 1 day early too (15th-20th but came the 14th!)

I wanted to love it.
I really thought I was moving up in the world buying a Pixel this time around instead of my usual Moto or OnePlus. I was wrong. It’s honestly the first quality smartphone I’ve ever owned that I disliked from day one. I can’t even put my finger on exactly what the problem was. (Oh yeah, one of the problems is that I couldn’t put my finger on it. 😀 – the fingerprint reader never worked. It wouldn’t accept my print no matter how many times I tried to set it up.) But seriously, I’m sure it’s perfectly fine for the price range, it just never felt right to me. I switched back to a Moto G Stylus 2023 for roughly the same price and am MUCH happier.

Not impressed
Don’t care for this phone. It is not intuitive and does not perform like other android phones.As far as the seller, no response when I requested assistance. Would not buy from them again.Battery life is not what I expected. This was purchased from a 3rd party. Amazon did not do a very good job of identifying it as a 3rd party. This phone is not even close to the standard that Amazon Renewed is. It’s awful.

They sent me the wrong phone the first time I ordered, someone’s old used one so I had to send that back and decided to try one more time for a (hopefully) better one.Very glad I did, I love this phone.The camera quality is good as well as the battery life, it’s easy to use and so far durable perfect Size for me and what I needed, love how the fingerprint sensor is on the screen it makes it very easy to use. only 4 stars because of the mess up with the first phone.

Great phone, excellent features & camera for the $, excellent seller
The first one that I purchased from this Seller was in excellent condition (looked brand new) but had a problem with the battery (took over 8 hrs to charge at times, and discharged very quickly). The Seller immediately worked with me to arrange for me to buy a second, identical phone from him and immediately gave me a full refund once I had switched over to the new phone and returned the original one. The replacement phone was likewise in excellent condition, and the battery on this one charges quickly, and discharges much more slowly. My only complaint with the phone is with the as designed battery capacity – it’s a little on the low side in my opinion, but as long as I make sure to recharge it whenever I get a chance, at least once/day, it’s plenty for my needs, and the price/features can’t be beat. Great phone, great seller.

Better than I expected!
I bought this phone on Amazon because I really couldn’t spend the money on a new one, but this isAmazing! Even though it’s refurbished, it honestly doesn’t have any problems. The only problem it has is sometimes you have to click on an App twice to make it work, but that’s only sometimes. Other than that, it almost works perfectly! It almost works perfectly, and I highly recommend!

Phone could’ve arrived better…
(Purchased from Reconditioned Geek)I bought this phone for my dad as an upgrade (coming from a Pixel 4).I prefer buying electronic items in new condition when possible, but I had a difficult time finding the Pixel 6a for around $200. I purchased 2 Pixel 6a’s on Google Fi for $199, so I was trying my best to find something similar in that price range.Ended up seeing an “Excellent Condition” Pixel 6a going for $219 (at the time) and decided to go ahead with my purchase. The shipping was quick and the phone arrived within a couple of days.The only issue I had was that the shipping box was slightly damaged (pushed inward on one side) and the contents inside were not well protected (+ everything inside the phone box was left “exposed”/open including the phone). I almost thought I didn’t receive the Pixel 6a due to how everything looked at first glance (see attached image).There was a minor scratch on the back of the phone, but other than that there hasn’t been any other damage I noticed and the device seems to be functioning pretty well.Instantly added some protection (i.e., screen/lens protectors + a case) and activated service later in the day.It’s been about 24 hours and everything appears to be running smooth.

Works as expected
The Pixel 6a is fast and easy to use. The phone heated up during set up (mostly on the left side), but I read on forums that this is normal, and temp has been great–cool–since set up. RAM speed is great. This renewed phone works very well. No complaints.

Phone arrived in like-new condition, almost no issues
Even though the phone’s IMEI is listed as compatible on my phone service provider’s public site, they had to do a couple days of work to get the phone to activate on their network. Everything else about the phone is great and is as described.-

Phone Locked. Only response from seller was return label. (Edited after receiving replacement)
The seller sent a slip with the product saying the phone would say it was locked by Verizon but it would work after completing the setup. Setup completed twice with all updates and Sim is still locked. When contacted, their only response was a return slip which is unneeded since it’s smarter to return through Amazon anyway. Time without phone, and cannot replace and get the same price.Edit: I returned the phone and got another one in the mail. This one works great and has no issues. Based on the packaging, it seems like it was packed and shipped by a different seller. I would guess the Amazon seller works with multiple suppliers.

Just like new.
This renewed Pixel 6a arrived in like-new condition. Everything worked perfectly. It synced right up to my carrier, transferred everything intact from my previous Pixel 4A, and I was on my way with minimum fuss. In one way it was even better than new. The new one does not come with a charger, only the cable. This one had a charger. It’s not a good fact one, but it’s something. Very happy with my phone.

Fingerprint recognition wouldn’t work
There’s a lot about this phone that I love. The camera, the battery life in the overall look and feel of the phone. I bought it refurbished because I just didn’t have the money to buy a new one. I could not get the fingerprint recognition to work to save my soul. I contacted the seller and they did give me a partial refund and I was able to keep the phone. The seller was extremely easy to work with and very nice. I truly appreciated that. All in all, I am happy with my purchase and I am extremely happy with the seller and would definitely buy from them again.

I got this phone, thinking it said unlocked for all US carriers. Nope, not a chance, this only works on Verizon based networks. “Well, did you talk to AT&T?” Yes, and this model is incompatible with their network. Great phone, terrible seller.

As Expected Except the Problem Samsung Charger and the Box Smelled
Slow UPS delivery took about a week from Colorado to west coast. Arrived as expected–well packed in generic white small box with screen taped for protection, new Samsung charger, SIM tool, but no USB to C adapter. The Samsung charger ran very hot at the phone end of the cable the first couple of days.. It also did not charge sometimes when plugged in. I discovered that it does NOT snuggly fit the phone port the way it does my friend’s Samsung phone. Amazon’s Renewed warranty won’t cover the charger–told me I have to do a full return/exchange. Problem is that there is NOT another Like New P6a available. Really regret NOT doing an eBay auction for a NIB phone. Shipping box smelled very musty out/inside such that I had to move it to another room to air out. I love this phone, but too bad the seller didn’t spend a extra bucks for a Google Pixel charger with the nice, long cable.

Finish Setup to Unlock
I bought two of these. They both came factory reset, so you will have to do the initial setup of course like any new phone. When you first turn it on, it will indicate that it is locked by Verizon (at least they both did for me, I should have taken a screen shot but wasn’t thinking). This had me worried, but if you continue all the way through the initial setup, you will get a message at the end that informs you that the phone is now unlocked. So the key is to finish the setup process, only then will it let you know that it is in fact unlocked.Once I got the phone all setup, I tested it out by putting in three different SIM cards, each from a different carrier. Two worked right away, and the third I had to custom set the APN settings to make it work. So if your SIM card isn’t working right away, double check what APN settings you need, each cellular carrier is different. In the end, all three SIM cards were working, so indeed, these phones are unlocked.Unfortunately, the USB-C power cords that came with the phones did not work, which isn’t a huge deal, but a slight inconvenience because I wanted dedicated charging cords for them. They were 3ft long each and seem cheaply made. I’ll just go buy new ones that are longer in length and more robust. Both power adapters are working fine though.

Great phone. Great price. Great options!
It’s a very nice phone. It has a few oddities like fingerprint reader under screen, camera in the screen too. So people can easily see what finger your using and that you have registered. Not great. But not terrible either. Camera has a small black hole in the front screen and I honestly never notice it anymore. Best of all, if you buy a unlocked version (be careful, carrier unlock is NOT the same as bootloader unlocked)… If you want to use a custom rom, you will need BOTH unlocked. Luckily the phones are abundant and they are still cheap. My custom rom gives me TEN YEARS of OS updates, security, features. That alone makes it very desirable. It’s light, thin and fast. I like CPU intensive games and it handles them like a champ. Screen is bright, colors are vibrant with lots of options. Sound it really good. The Pixel 6a does NOT have an SD expansion tray. They want you to use their cloud, because of course they do! So get the biggest memory you can. Also the 6a has 99% of the bugs fixed. So allot of older reviews are not accurate anymore. Flagship phone with lots of options to fettle to your liking without having to sell your house to buy one. Recommended 10/10

They shipped promptly, and so far the phone is working very well
Seller shipped promptly. My only negative comment, seller’s description was that the phone was perfect. The phone works well. Every thing else about it is great….BUT! the G logo (G for Google, on the back of the phone) has been severely defaced and scratched by scrapping; as if someone tried to obliterate the brand of the phone. Doesn’t matter so much though, because I keep the phone in a case. Still, the seller’s description of the phone as “EXCELLENT” doesn’t quite apply. Good product though, other than that.
Love my new phone just wish I didn’t have little scratches on the screen :( other then that no problem:) –

I had a 16 GB phone before this…
There is a world of difference between the cheap 16 GB Samsung phone that I had and the Pixel 6a. This phone is clear and works in areas I could get no reception. The camera takes detailed photos in any conditions. I can use apps without running out of storage, And the internet is fast. It has a learning curve I’m still learning. There are some features I actually preferred on the Samsung. But overall, this is a first-tier phone that works for both my outdoors lifestyle and when I’m at home relaxing.

Found zero problems visually on the phone
If I didn’t know better I would have said the phone was brand new. There are zero scratches or dings on the phone.The only problem I have is when I plug in the phone to a PD charger it constantly dings when charging and takes a while to set on a charge voltage. This might not be a problem with the phone itself but with Android 14 since I updated it before the initial charge.

This is the first pixel phone I’ve ever owned and it is perfect in everything but one – I can’t get the fingerprint reader to work.The photos are beautiful, the battery lasts a long time, the phone call quality and text accuracy is amazing – – but that darn fingerprint reader has been so frustrating. I stopped using it and am keeping the phone but I wish they would fix this.

In LOVE!
I’m in love with my “new” Google Pixel 6a! The battery life is incredible, the handling is easy, the screen is larger than the phone I was previously using and it fits nicely in my hand. Though my phone was pre-loved, it was in very good condition, came already charged, unlocked, with cord, adapter, and tool to open the sim compartment. Even arrived 2-3 days ahead of proposed shipping date.

Not really unlocked for all carriers
Ordered unlocked Pixel 6a. Received the phone quickly but when I opened it it contained a note from seller saying they are Verizon unlocked (see attached picture). I put my sim card in the first message that pops up on phone says the “bootloader is unlocked” which compromised the integrity of the phone. While the phone works for calling/texting it’s truly not unlocked for all carriers. I could not use the Google pay featire because of the bootloader being unlocked and the IMEI will not let me switch carriers. I messaged the seller about this and they said they would process and expedited exchange. I sent the phone back but once they got the phone back the seller messaged me that they don’t have any inventory to send me a new phone so they just refunded me. I go into their Amazon posting and it says they have 6 in stock today…..SHADY. Now I’m stuck without a phone longer. While I appreciate the quick refund I would not trust them with future things. Shame on Amazon too for being associated with them as their renewed store. Do not buy from them!

I’ve had this phone for apx. 1 week and have been very pleased. The phone arrived in less time than promised and was packaged very well. No problem with it being unlocked as previous phones from another supplier. Condition of the phone is as good as new, no scratches or dings or carry-over downloads. I don’t give 5 star ratings very often but this deserved one.

Great condition
This phone arrived like new condition, there were no scratches anywhere and was packaged in a generic white box. It arrived with no physical sim installed, so I purchased one from TracFone, which is what I use. After I located my IMEI number and my serial number which was in the phone settings that I was able to access offline, TracFone had me up and running in just a few short minutes. I was skeptical about purchasing a refurbished phone, but, I am very well pleased with my Amazon refurbished phone. The condition and function of this phone is like a new one, everything works. I will probably purchase other Amazon refurbished products in the future.

Heavy, clunky hand computer.
This thing is way too heavy. And it’s not even the biggest pixel. Surely that’s due to the big battery – which has both an upside and a downside. Of course the upside is that this phone does get great battery life. But it’s just too impractical to carry around this heavyweight thing in my hand or in my pocket. It will fall out of your hands multiple times so make sure you have a great grippy case otherwise your pixel 6a WILL break.Also the fingerprint reader is slow and very problematic. I stopped using it because it just simply didn’t work any faster than putting in a code or pattern. Not only that but it flashes a bright light at your face in the middle of the night. Very annoying.I’ve also been having several little issues with apps malfuntioning. The software is difficult to understand coming from Samsung even though they both use Android, I can’t figure out simple things like how to close out open apps.Photos are good. That’s a plus. The renewed condition was excellent as far as wear and battery.I know this is a “budget” phone but it’s also a flagship, and for the price, you can pay $50-80 more and get a renewed Samsung S22 which is a higher quality phone, with comparable camera and lighter weight, though less battery life.

Best phone I ever owned
Everything on this phone works beautifully. The camera is superb. Camera app opens and focuses instantly and always takes really good quality photos in any lighting. You won’t miss good photos because the camera is very fast.Everything on the phone opens up quickly and it fits nicely in my hand. Battery life is also very good once I disabled the screen knock / tilt-to-wake features (which basically keep the screen / accelerometer sensors running at all times). Also I strongly recommend turning off the adaptive battery setting because it is very glitchy. Half the time it doesn’t charge the phone at all and I start my day with an empty battery. Just turn that off in the settings and then the phone will charge just fine.

Great phone, refurbished, but comes with no instructions. No expansion, comes with 128 GB memory.
The media could not be loaded.
The refurbished phone is fine but comes with no instructions. To transfer apps it says to use a USB cable with USB C on one end and whatever fits your old phone on the other. Who has that? Then it looked for Blue Tooth and the two phones just took it from there. I moved the SIM card from the old phone and contacted my carrier and that was that. Then I tried out the time-lapse video feature. I had to guess but I think it came out well. See video. The setting sun near Summer Solstice illuminated my Victorian stained glass window. 75 minutes compressed to 1 min and 18 seconds.

This is a great phone except for the underscreen finger print reader
I prefer the pixel a series of phone because of the excellent value they offer. Also I feel that the back is more resistant to damage than phones with a glass back.My work requires a more durable phone and I always have a screen protector. This reduces the reliability of the underscreen finger print reader.Google, please keep the finger scanner on the back! I’m exchanging this for a pixel 5a.

So when I first bought this phone at the beginning of this month I thought It would come in a week but ended up taking nearly 2 weeks. Just for it not to come in with it unlocked (I can’t use another service it’s locked on at&t) and it to have cracks on the phone I’ll be it small but still.

Great value. Like the pure Android interface.
I’ve been buying top of line Samsung’s for years. First pixel. First impression is, “Love it”. Much prefer ergonomics over my Galaxy S20. Still don’t understand why Samsung went w curved edges on their screens. Just gets cracked easier. Pixel is very solidly built and case wraps whole screen. The Samsung UI has a lot of quirks that the pure Android UI avoids. It took a little adjustment, but I’m now a big fan of unadulterated Android. Seems snappier too. Got the sage color. Nice shade. Camer works great. Really no complaints.

Great quality
The Google pixel 6a is an amazing phone with crisp screen quality and great cameras. The microphone is good and the phone runs apps fast.
