Pixel 6a is the perfect phone for the price.

6a is much worse then pixel 5 and i would not recommend it to anyone over 5.

You write that 60 hz feels like 120, then why is there a night and day difference even between 60 hz pixels and 90 hz pixel? Both use that magic pixel smooth os ;) 60 hz is 60 hz. Now i will be downvoted here but apples ios is actually much more smooth then android. I still have iphone 6s and latest ios update on it really feels like 90 hz.

6a also has very old gorilla glass 3 (10 year old nexus 5 had the same) Gorilla glass 6 on pixel 5 is much better.

I would not even compare plastic to aluminum body that 5 has.

Even with plastic body 6a does not have wireless charging. 5 has it and it even has REVERSE wireless charging ;)

also 5 has 2 GB more RAM then 6a. 6 vs 8 GB. Better for future andorid 14 update and future apps.

5 also has better ultrawide camera, better display HDR10+ vs HDR.

Pixel 5 fingerprint scanner ALWAYS works and is in the best place possible. Do not know why would Google do not admit that. Pixel 1, 2, 3, (some a models) and 5 have the best placement of fingerprint scanner.

Pixel 5 is much more compact with it's much smaller and round bezels and has better placement of hole punch camera, in the corner compared to in the middle of the screen on 6a

Overall i do not even understand why would anyone even consider buying 6a when pixel 5 exists. 5 is much much better phone. 6a is simply too budget phone, too limited.
