So, I will be getting a new Pixel 7a tomorrow most likely.
It is a one month old device apparently in Mint condition, with ~$100 cheaper price, should I go for it?
I currently use a Pixel 3 XL, which I bought on Day 1 so I am thinking it is time to upgrade. Anything I should know before I go through with it?
If you have dry hands, the under display fingerprint sensor can be unreliable. I went from a pixel 4 (had a pixel 2 before that) to the 7 and miss the pixel 4.
The 7 is great in all other regards but the fingerprint sensor only works like 30% of the time. Seems like it varies from person to person though - other folks report no problems with the sensor.
Seconding this. If it fails twice for me I wipe my finger on emy short and that fixes it probably 85% of the time.
I have the pixel 7 Pro, the fingerprint sensor never fails me
Two biggest P7 issues:
-
Fingerprint scanner is garbage
-
Battery life is barely good enough for one day
Other than that, nothing you should know, phone is good
-
I got one yesterday. I’m struggling to get to my notifications without the rear scanner for dragging down. I don’t think there is really a solution other than getting used to it.
I have one, it’s a pretty decent phone, no real complaints expect battery life
I’ve been using that but it’s not really a practical replacement for swiping on the rear sensor.
