I had moved away from Pixel phones after my Pixel 2 XL due to the price. After bouncing around from OnePlus to Motorola I'm back in the fold and VERY happy with the 7a.
The things I was looking for were qi charging (hard to find in midrange phones), NFC payments, good battery life, and long software support. This checked all the boxes. Some of the pleasant surprises were the size (not too big), the clarity of the screen, and the camera. The camera in particular is EXCELLENT.
The fingerprint reader is a bit inconsistent, but I've found that if I wet my finger and wipe it off the reader works every time. I've got pretty dry fingertips, so that could explain the issues I have with it. I don't have to store a ton on the phone, so 128gb of space is plenty for me to use the apps that I want and download music and movies for when I'm traveling.
You're not going to find a better phone for the price. I got mine on sale for $399, which these days is the most I will pay for a phone.

Quality Issue - Camera stop working in second week
This will be last update as I will start Amazon return process for my new Google Pixel 7A. I have tried all options and can not miss return window. Everything else works except Camera and PhotosUpdate 01-17-24: So far no response from @Google. One more thing- Fingure print Scanner has its own mind after putting screen protector on phone. Sometime it works after 1000 attempts (Exaggeration!). Most of time it does not. Never had this issue with Samsung. I will give benefit of doubt to Google... May be Glass screen protector is not a good quality one. Ordering new screen protector. Will see how it goes. I saw few reviews with Fingure print scanner issues specially in 7A. I am now thinking 7A is lower end, budget friendly phone so its bound to be of inferior quality. Wait.. this is Google phone, so it can not be!Will wait for google to respond. (I have doubts about that they will reach out as 7A is a low end phone, but will see.)Original Review:My first pixel. I was Samsung Note user till this point. I bought this phone few weeks back. It all went smooth after opening box. (Not as smooth as Galaxy) In week 2, camera suddenly stop working. It gives error the message (See Pic). I closed and open camera app 10 times but it did not work. So I thought may be it's one off thing and I restarted the phone, and camera started working again. I was not happy but well it's Google flagship phone, it has to be good. It happed 1 more time and I restarted phone but it just happened again today (Pic). I will have to restart phone to make it work again. By the way I do not use camera that frequently. So far I took less than 10 Pic so it can be overuse issue( if that even considered an issue !!) If this happens again I will return the phone. I want to make sure I do not miss return window.Google: Shame on you for this poor quality Pixel 7A product. I know you must have good QC but there is something wrong with it or you have software issue.Not sure if this is a common problem across all Pixel models. Be aware before you buy.I will post update. I hope Google respond as I do not think Amazon can do anything other than Return/Replace.Put 2 Star for now. Will remove 1 star if no response in 5 days from Google and we all return phone back.

And another one: since this is a Japanese phone, you CANNOT disable the camera sound, a "detail" you may find pretty annoying (I'm okay with that albeit I find it pretty silly).
