Google Pixel 6a Smartphone, Android, 6.1”, 5G, SIM Free, 128GB

Smart. Powerful. Helpful. Google’s more compact take on their acclaimed Pixel 6 is a serious piece of kit. The 6.1” OLED display, the 5G connectivity, the 12MP multi-lens camera, the fast-charging battery, the… we could go on. And it’s powered by the same brains as the Pixel 6 Pro (the Google Tensor chip, since you ask) for brilliantly fast performance. Plus, there’s no worries on the security front: fingerprint recognition will keep everything under lock and, well, scanner.

5G capability
Say bye-bye to buffering. The super-fast 5G ready connection zips through downloads at record pace. Stream, browse, and watch whatever you want, wherever you want. Waiting forever for your Instagram feed to load up will be a distant memory.

Rich, vivid, cinematic screen
This screen packs gorgeously lush visuals into your pocket. The 6.1-inch OLED display comes HDR-enabled and supports up to 60Hz refresh rate. Put in plain English (don’t worry, we had to look up half of that too), you’ll get rich, real-world colour and contrast, and smooooth scrolling on a clear, bright, cinema-aspect screen.

Super selfies
Fancy getting creative yourself? The camera not only gives you multiple lenses (so you can take loads of different shots that’ll all look ace), but you can record video in 4K with cool tech that’ll smooth out any shakiness.

Make photobombers disappear
Magic Eraser is a real game-changer. With a few taps, you can remove strangers and unwanted objects from pics. It’s never been easier to forget about your ex.

Dust, drop and splash resistant
Whether it’s a quick dip in the bath or just checking out the streets (literally), our phones go through a lot. Thankfully, the Pixel 6a safeguards you from any little oops, with IP67 water and dust resistance. The screen also comes with Corning Gorilla Glass 3, so it’s tough, less prone to scratches, plus it’s resistant to those pesky fingerprints.

A battery for night, and day
Scroll, stream, and share to your heart's content knowing the Pixel 6a won’t run out before your train even arrives. Yep, its adaptive battery will keep going for around 24 hours (estimation based on regular use). When you do need a bit more juice, it's Fast Charging compatible, so don’t worry about being tied to an outlet for too long.

Simply touch to unlock
With the under-display fingerprint sensor, you can instantly log in to your apps and websites without compromising on security.

What is SIM free?
You'll receive an unlocked device, so there’s no requirement to commit to any network, leaving you free to decide which SIM card / network to use. This gives you the opportunity to find the most suitable plan, whether that’s contract or pay-as-you-go, throughout the lifetime of the phone.

Top tip: as this mobile phone is supplied SIM free and unlocked, you have access to SIM only deals – these usually offer far better value for money – especially for all-important data plans.
