The new Google Pixel 6a Charcoal
High performance in budget price
The Google Pixel 6a is a cheap phone that uses Google’s own Tensor chip to take great photos. It’s also small, perfect for those who like compact phones. We’ll give you more info here.
Tensor Titan M2 chip
The Google Pixel 6a has a special computer chip made by Google, called Tensor with Titan M2, that focuses on important things like security. Google phones are the first to get updates for the Android operating system and they promise to provide updates for a long time – until July 2025, which is two years longer than most similar phones. This means that Google Pixel 6a phones will continue to be secure and get new software for a longer time than most other phones in the same price range. You won’t find many other Android phones, especially at this price, that offer such a high level of security commitment.
ARM Cortex-X1
The chip additionally integrates a Titan M2 security processor, an LPDDR5 memory controller, and an ISP for HDR / 4k/60 video & cameras.
Super fast GPU
Additionally, it is equipped with a Mali-G78 MP20 GPU for exceptional graphics performance.
The Google Tensor SoC is constructed on the advanced 5nm architecture and comprises eight cores, among which are two high-performance ARM Cortex-X1 cores operating at a frequency of 2.8GHz, four Cortex-A55 cores operating at 1.8 GHz, and two Cortex-A76 cores operating at 2.25 GHz.
The best Pixel size
The Google Pixel 6a is a phone with a 6.1-inch screen. It has a slightly less smooth display than the more expensive Pixel 6 and 6 Pro models because its refresh rate is 60 Hz instead of 90 or 120 Hz. However, the 6a is still responsive because it uses a clean Android operating system. It’s also the cheapest phone in the Pixel 6 series and is made from slightly cheaper materials. The back is made of plastic and the front uses an older type of Gorilla Glass. But, the good news is that the whole phone is waterproof.

Pixel Exclusive
The Google Pixel 6a has two cameras – a 12.2MP main camera, and a 12MP wider angle one. Although there isn’t a separate zoom lens, you can still zoom in with the camera’s digital feature, which looks good thanks to the camera’s software. The camera also comes with some special features, thanks to the Tensor chip. Face Unblur makes blurry faces look clearer, and Magic Eraser can remove things or people from a photo. Night Sight is a special mode for taking photos at night and capturing the stars, and Real Tone makes sure skin looks natural in every photo.
