Google Pixel 6a - 5G Android Pho... vs Tracfone Alcatel TCL A3, 32GB, B...

It has an amazing photo camera (video is good), screen is nice and all my apps run smoothly. It's battery life is good, reception and audio very good and it has a sharp old display and plenty responsive.

My only nitpick is the fingerprint reader on the front of the screen is super inconsistent. The pixel 6a truly is best as long as the refresh rate and not so fast fingerprint scanner is not a deal breaker for you.

If you want a native android experience on a budget, without bloatware, the pixel 6a is probably your best option. The camera combined with the google software rivals the best and it has a fast processor and more than adequate onboard memory for most ...  Read More

The response is noticeably better than the pixel 3a. The new phone recognizes its orientation much faster than the 3a did, even though i do not have the facial recognition feature enabled.

Every few years i buy an android, with the last 4 being google devices, and google consistently disappoints every single time. Google needs to stop making hardware, and stick with software. The 6a has as bad of battery life as the old 3a i was replaci...  Read More

Finger prints 10% of the time works every time. The fingerprint scanner is an utter and total pos fail. This is the worst fingerprint reader i've ever seen.

Google figures that this is a phone for losers, so if you were dumb enough to buy this mess, you should be dealt with and talked to like the complete freakin' idiot you are. All in all, i agree with those who call it overpriced; for my situation it’s ...  Read More

The problem appears to be with the cdma antennas in the phone. I know enough about these phones to know their history with google hangouts is probably the culprit. The 5g is not reliable - cuts out when trying to stream music or on calls. The navigati...  Read More

No cord, including the original that came with the phone seems to satisfy the 6a. Phone takes forever to charge. Doesn't even come with a charger.

Tracfone piggybacks off all three major carriers--t-mobile, verizon and at&t. Sprint merged with t-mobile in 2020). Love this phone.

Bought 2 so far for the grandkids. Got the most bang for the buck. Good volume from speaker.

Replaceable battery--increasingly unusual these days. Rapping the back, slightly--or opening it, and pushing in the battery better--solves.

Tracfone is a successful capitalist and more importantly saboteur. Helpline keeps disconnecting.

Took the batteries out & tried the process over 12 times. Found out that there is no sim card as mentioned in product details. Sim card appears to be damaged and very little battery life.
