It’s just a good phone, with useful features, for under $500. And get this: even the AI stuff is useful (on occasion). Join me for a road trip review to Google I/O, with the Pixel 8a. [ABOUT MRMOBILE'S PIXEL 8A REVIEW] This video was produced following one week with a Pixel 8a review sample provided by Google, which also provided travel and lodging for MrMobile's attendance at Google I/O 2024 in Mountain View CA (as well as a San Francisco Giants game for content capture). MrMobile does not offer manufacturers the opportunity to preview, edit or approve content before publication. Neither Google nor any other manufacturer provided compensation in exchange for this coverage. The lone sponsor of this video is dbrand.
