Considering its weaker processor, I wasn&#8217;t sure the Pixel 10a would perform nearly as well.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"e_e e_P\">\n<p>Apart from a little heating during more intensive games and apps, I have to admit that I don&#8217;t really notice much difference between the Galaxy S25 FE and the Pixel 10a when it comes to browsing, playing games, or doing anything regular. It also performed well compared to my Galaxy S24 or my company-owned Galaxy S25 Edge.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"e_e e_P\">\n<p>The camera experience was also quite impressive. Packing a 48MP primary and 13MP ultrawide sensor that&#8217;s the same as the Pixel 9a before it, you might not get the most impressive on-paper hardware, but Google&#8217;s AI chops really shine here.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><q>The Pixel 10a performs well day to day, but what really impressed me is the battery life and Google&#8217;s software. <\/q><\/p>\n<div class=\"e_e e_P\">\n<p>Snaps look good in almost every lighting situation, and really, the only major difference I&#8217;ve noticed from Samsung devices I&#8217;ve used is that you won&#8217;t get a telephoto lens, although the digital zoom isn&#8217;t as bad as it is.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"e_e e_P\">\n<p>Battery life also surprised me, especially for the Pixel, which historically hasn&#8217;t been so good here. I remember thinking that the Galaxy S25 FE had some impressive battery capabilities compared to my Galaxy S24, which lasted up to six hours before I had to run to a charger. I was able to work for about seven hours a day on the Pixel 10a. I&#8217;m also happy that charging speeds support up to 30W, although wireless charging is a bit slow at 10W.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"e_e e_P\">\n<p>Although I&#8217;ve given up on the Pixel, I have to admit that I never stopped liking Google&#8217;s approach to Android. It&#8217;s clean, simple, and yet packed with more features than older iterations I&#8217;ve used. Let&#8217;s just say it wouldn&#8217;t be an exaggeration to say that I prefer its out-of-the-box experience compared to Samsung&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><h2>which impressed me less<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"e_f\">\n<div class=\"e_7s\" style=\"max-width:2560px\"><picture class=\"e_Vg\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;aspect-ratio:2560 \/ 1440\"><source sizes=\"(min-width: 64rem) 51.25rem, 80vw\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Google-Pixel-7-Pro-showing-back-cover-scaled.jpg.webp 2560w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Google-Pixel-7-Pro-showing-back-cover-64w-36h.jpg.webp 64w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Google-Pixel-7-Pro-showing-back-cover-1000w-563h.jpg.webp 1000w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Google-Pixel-7-Pro-showing-back-cover-1920w-1080h.jpg.webp 1920w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Google-Pixel-7-Pro-showing-back-cover-1536w-864h.jpg.webp 1536w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Google-Pixel-7-Pro-showing-back-cover-675w-380h.jpg.webp 675w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Google-Pixel-7-Pro-showing-back-cover-300w-170h.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Google-Pixel-7-Pro-showing-back-cover-1280w-720h.jpg.webp 1280w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Google-Pixel-7-Pro-showing-back-cover-840w-472h.jpg.webp 840w\" type=\"image\/webp\"\/><img class=\"e_Wg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"(min-width: 64rem) 51.25rem, 80vw\" title=\"The back cover of Google Pixel 7 Pro is visible\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Google-Pixel-7-Pro-showing-back-cover-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Google-Pixel-7-Pro-showing-back-cover-64w-36h.jpg 64w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Google-Pixel-7-Pro-showing-back-cover-1000w-563h.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Google-Pixel-7-Pro-showing-back-cover-1920w-1080h.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Google-Pixel-7-Pro-showing-back-cover-1536w-864h.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Google-Pixel-7-Pro-showing-back-cover-675w-380h.jpg 675w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Google-Pixel-7-Pro-showing-back-cover-300w-170h.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Google-Pixel-7-Pro-showing-back-cover-1280w-720h.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Google-Pixel-7-Pro-showing-back-cover-840w-472h.jpg 840w\" alt=\"The back cover of Google Pixel 7 Pro is visible\" src=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Google-Pixel-7-Pro-showing-back-cover-scaled.jpg\"\/><\/picture>\n<div class=\"e_nv e_8s\">\n<p>Hadley Simmons\/Android Authority<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"e_e e_P\">\n<p>Let&#8217;s start with the Tensor chip. While I agree the experience still feels almost as good as any modern flagship, I still wish Google had chosen the Tensor G5 instead of the older Tensor G4, as it feels like the least future-proof part of the Pixel experience. The phone offers seven years of software updates, but I really wonder how well it will actually perform in the future.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><q>The Pixel 10a is a little boring in my eyes, but it&#8217;s far from an ugly device. <\/q><\/p>\n<div class=\"e_e e_P\">\n<p>I also want to mention the design. The Pixel 10a color really suits me and reminds me of my all-time favorite Pixel, the orange Pixel 4 XL.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"e_e e_P\">\n<p>That said, I really feel like the unique camera bar Google introduced with the Pixel 6 was a nice way to differentiate Google&#8217;s phones from the pack. With its flat rear and simple camera cutout with no bulge, the latest budget Pixel looks a little generic for my tastes. Certainly not a deal breaker, but I really wish Google had kept the Pixel A design more in line with the flagship family like the Pixel 10.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><h2>I&#8217;m still cautious about Google, but the Pixel 10a feels like a solid secondary device<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"e_f\">\n<div class=\"e_7s\" style=\"max-width:2560px\"><picture class=\"e_Vg\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;aspect-ratio:2560 \/ 1440\"><source sizes=\"(min-width: 64rem) 51.25rem, 80vw\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/google-pixel-10a-review-berry-back-4-scaled.jpg.webp 2560w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/google-pixel-10a-review-berry-back-4-64w-36h.jpg.webp 64w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/google-pixel-10a-review-berry-back-4-1000w-563h.jpg.webp 1000w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/google-pixel-10a-review-berry-back-4-1920w-1080h.jpg.webp 1920w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/google-pixel-10a-review-berry-back-4-1536w-864h.jpg.webp 1536w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/google-pixel-10a-review-berry-back-4-675w-380h.jpg.webp 675w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/google-pixel-10a-review-berry-back-4-300w-170h.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/google-pixel-10a-review-berry-back-4-1280w-720h.jpg.webp 1280w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/google-pixel-10a-review-berry-back-4-840w-472h.jpg.webp 840w\" type=\"image\/webp\"\/><img class=\"e_Wg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"(min-width: 64rem) 51.25rem, 80vw\" title=\"google pixel 10a review berry back 4\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/google-pixel-10a-review-berry-back-4-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/google-pixel-10a-review-berry-back-4-64w-36h.jpg 64w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/google-pixel-10a-review-berry-back-4-1000w-563h.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/google-pixel-10a-review-berry-back-4-1920w-1080h.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/google-pixel-10a-review-berry-back-4-1536w-864h.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/google-pixel-10a-review-berry-back-4-675w-380h.jpg 675w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/google-pixel-10a-review-berry-back-4-300w-170h.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/google-pixel-10a-review-berry-back-4-1280w-720h.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/google-pixel-10a-review-berry-back-4-840w-472h.jpg 840w\" alt=\"Google Pixel 10a in its berry color.\" src=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/google-pixel-10a-review-berry-back-4-scaled.jpg\"\/><\/picture>\n<div class=\"e_nv e_8s\">\n<p>Joe Maring\/Android Authority<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"e_e e_P\">\n<p>So far, I&#8217;m very happy with the Google Pixel 10a.
