The Google Pixel 7 and Pixel 6a are two of the most popular smartphones on the market. They’re both great options for those who want a phone that’s stylish and powerful, but they come at a price. The Pixel 7 is available for $100 off, while the Pixel 6a is available for $150 off.
The Pixel 6a is still a very strong phone, even in 2022. It comes with Google’s Tensor SoC, which also powered last year’s Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro, and it comes with very reasonable specs for the price, with the Pixel 6’s only real downgrade being the camera — and it’s not even that bad, since it’s comparable to the camera in the Pixel 5. In the case of the Pixel 7, you get a full flagship package with a second-generation Tensor chip and Google’s amazing 50MP rear camera.
The Pixel 6a will receive new major Android OS updates until July 2025, and monthly security patches until July 2027. The Pixel 7 will get Android OS upgrades until October 2025, and security patches until October 2027. That’s still not iPhone-level longevity, but it’s one of the best promises you’ll get on an Android device.
