Two words: Battery life. This will make or break this phone's value proposition due to the longevity of the phone. I don't have high hopes based on the battery life of previous Pixels, but if they do well in tests, then I would recommend this phone as the best in its price bracket (the low storage and no headphone jack and MicroSD slot also hurts it quite a bit).

Anonymous, 12 May 2024Pixels will get custom TSMC SoC with Pixel 10. So wait for Pixel 10 instead.I believe it's the Pixel 11, that will use TSMC..but to make sure again we should wait until Pixel 12, so we could see if the next Pixel 13 is worth to buy or not.
Lets not forget, we should also give attention to rumors about Pixel 14, if the rumors about Pixel 13 and 14 are good, then the pIxel 15 is definitely worth to buy with way more features.
Until Pixel 15 comes, Samsung is the best choice we have right now.

too big, if they make it size of Pixel 4a or at least Pixel 8 then we can talk, plus the price should be max 400EUR
The Pixel 8a is a revolutionary device and is the best device in the world. It has the best cameras in the world and they are superior to the competition's cameras. It is a pioneer in providing 7 years of Android Pixel and the updates are extremely timely as in Apple's iOS. The build quality is top-notch and the design is a compact 6.1". The Google Tensor G3 chip provides flagship performance and is the only chip that can offer Google's incredible technology. It maintains its modest price of $499.95 and for an additional $60 you get 256 GB.
The iPhone 15 is compact but significantly more expensive, costing $829.99 for 128GB, and while it offers a more complete package, it only offers 5 years of iOS.
Staying on the amazing #TeamPixel will always be the right decision.
All the devices mentioned by the author of this survey are complete garbage and cannot be compared to the Pixel 8a because they offer mediocre cameras and are literally 7.0" 250g bricks. Never mind that they offer 4 years of software updates because their software is mediocre and their updates will be late anyway. No Android OEM can match the timeliness of a Pixel device's software updates.
At 200-300 it might be worth getting.
Anonymous, 13 May 2024Good joke 😂Color OS is buggy. So Oneplus is not that better.
- slow Tensor g3
- bad modem
- 256GB max and no card slot
- 2nd sim is eSIM only
- no headphone jack
- 8GB RAM in 2024 for mid range phone is not enough
- UFS 3.1
- mediocre optics and sensors
The only reason to buy a Pixel is the camera software . That's it.
