I have used the Pixel 6a for more than a month. I have run into a few minor issues, but is this still my recommended mid-range phone for 2022?...

It’s been more than a month since I switched to the Pixel 6a as my main and only phone, and I feel that’s a good time to really get to know the phone a bit more than just the typical review, so if you are interested to learn whether I can still recommend the Pixel 6a after that initial honeymoon period... read on!

Let me start with what I love about the Pixel 6a and why I readily switched to it the moment I put my hands on the phone. For me, that was a lot about the combination of compact size, fast performance, and reasonable price. In this past month, I haven’t used the camera as much as I usually do, and I think that might be coincidence, but might also be about this phone missing some of my favorite camera features. I love to shoot portrait mode photos, but Pixel portraits look terrible at 2X digital zoom, and 1X portraits just don't look good to my eye. To be perfectly honest, I am not a huge fan of Pixel colors in photos during the day, they lack a bit in warmth, but that is a personal preference.

Battery life on the Pixel 6a is mostly average, which I would have no problem with if the phone was charging quickly. But it’s not! It takes an eternity to charge, it only supports 18W charging speeds and it takes nearly 2 hours to fully charge. Two long exhausting hours.
