Average battery life during testing was approximately 29 hours. Battery life depends upon many factors and usage of certain features will decrease battery life. Battery testing conducted in California in early 2022 on pre-production hardware and software, using default settings. Battery testing conducted using Sub-6 GHz non-standalone 5G (ENDC) connectivity. Actual battery life may be lower. Wired charging rates up to 18W based on use of Google 30W USB-C® or Google 18W USB-C® Charger plugged into a wall outlet. Actual results may be slower. Adapters sold separately. Compatible with USB PD 3.0 PPS adapters. 3 Designed to comply with dust and water protection rating IP67 under IEC standard 60529 when each device leaves the factory, but the device is not water or dust proof. The accessories are not water or dust resistant. Water resistance and dust resistance are not permanent conditions and will diminish or be lost over time due to normal wear and tear, device repair, disassembly or damage. Dropping your device may result in loss of water/dust resistance. Liquid damage voids the warranty. See g.co/pix…ter for details.

O2 refresh is £258.60 so technically lower but well worth 40p more not to have to call and speak to O2. That's worth £40 .

To those asking, use the £10 credit on Google Play by selecting Vodafone Billing with the SIM in a phone.
25th Nov 2022
Good tip on the SIM credit. When I bought a phone on a similar deal a while ago I also used the credit to buy things from the Microsoft/Xbox store, and for charitable donations by text, in case that helps anyone.

How does this compare to a Xiaomi Poco F3 phone which is regularly on offer for £185
25th Nov 2022
Poco F3 has a better screen (120hz vs 60hz). Performance is quite similar. Pixel 6a has a better camera, is waterproof, and much better software (although this can be remedied on the F3 with a custom ROM). Poco F3 probably has better battery life is you use a custom ROM, otherwise pretty similar. (edited)
25th Nov 2022
Can't decide if this will be a good replacement for my Poco F2 Pro.
25th Nov 2022
Poco better battery life, bigger screen, lovely notchlessness, roughly equal processor (depending on the task), more premium feeling build

Pixel better camera performance, update lifecycle, pocket-friendly size, simpler Android experience (whether this is a pro or con depends on whether you prefer a simple UI or more complexity)

I couldn't believe how long a charge would last on my (now long gone) F2 Pro
25th Nov 2022
Can somebody tell me if this is unlocked please?
25th Nov 2022
All UK phones are unlocked now, by law
25th Nov 2022
So am I right in thinking that when you get £10 top up, if you don't use it then it disconnects after 180 days? So basically just stick your current sim card into the new phone when it arrives if already on a sim card only deal? Thanks
25th Nov 2022
Just don’t use it, there’s no contract and no obligation to use their SIM.
25th Nov 2022
Apols. Bit out of the phone buying loop here; I want a decent SIM free phone (& this looks good) but how does it work with Voda. here? Is it locked? To Voda.? After the initial month, (you have to buy, right?) can I ditch Voda. and switch to ano provider without unlocking it as such? Thanks.
25th Nov 2022
All phones in UK are unlocked now. It's just a PAYG SIM, you don't have to leave them, just don't top it up further
26th Nov 2022
This or the A52S 5G?
27th Nov 2022
Was thinking the same thing tho I have went with this over it.

I was looking on YouTube for compare vids and this is compared more to the a53 not the 52 the 52 seems to be on par with the pixel 4
28th Nov 2022
Is the "Redmi Note 10 5G" a good phone? Never owned a Redmi phone, or known anyone who owned one either. I notice the RAM is lower than most other newer phones.
28th Nov 2022
Depends what you are used to. It's a basic 5G phone. Performance is better than most phones in this price range . Screen is not very bright and struggls in direct sunlight. Camera is ok in good conditions but in darker scenes the results are less impressive . It's OS, MIUI is a bit of a mixed bag. It's quite customizable , has some extra features compared to basic android. It could be a good idea to look up some MIUI videos online(YouTube)to see if it is to your liking. I owned 3 or 4 Xiaomis throughout the years and they were as reliable and we'll made as other big brands. (edited)

24th Nov 2022
No, you get a box with it as well (edited)

He's done it again
24th Nov 2022
Pixel 6 for £299 at currys is the better deal if you can get one
25th Nov 2022
it was yes
25th Nov 2022
Hot but still cheaper at John Lewis (£200 or less) with a trade in
24th Nov 2022
First, before this goes through the roof
24th Nov 2022
Cor, these Pixel deals are just crazy. Starting to think that Pixel is finally out to get itself a decent share of the market. Watch out Samsung.
24th Nov 2022
Sorry as I know you get this a lot...
These will be unlocked as per UK law? Thanks switchy!! (edited)

They will bud
24th Nov 2022
Was really hoping for the Pixel 7 Pro - still a good deal tho 🔥
25th Nov 2022
I hope it drops to £199 because I don't think they actually can be bothered handling trade in i hope lol
24th Nov 2022
Note 10 really good price ! Hoping for an old for my son as he will mainly use phone for YouTube but great to see this price! Come on the others!!
24th Nov 2022
Personally prefer thr deal with £100 trade in for an old phone in my draw as works out as £199 with a 2 year warranty from them.
24th Nov 2022
I bought a pixel 6a from Google, trade in for iPhone 8 = £184, working, factory reset, no damage. Sent back after valuation😡
24th Nov 2022
🔥
24th Nov 2022
I got the RedMi 10 on the last discount, very impressed for the cost.
got the wife the Note 10 shortly after, it sucks. camera on it freezes, sent it back, got another same thing, going back again.
24th Nov 2022
look at the price of your deal from the other day that you kept saying different phone (Note 10 5G), what did I tell you. Cheers for clarifying this (edited)
25th Nov 2022
Excellent find! Bought on, thank you!
25th Nov 2022
Ordered, thanks
25th Nov 2022
Thought that was a galaxy note 10 5g! 😔 That would've been out of the roof at that price!
25th Nov 2022
Excellent prices here from Vodafone PAYG for BF ♨️
30th Nov 2022

good price. I have a poco f2 pro which i love but my dad's phone died and I told him id pass hid down mine this xmas. I know the cam in this is great but will it feel like a downgrade from the poco performance wise ? (SD865)
26th Nov 2022
The whole Pixel 6 line uses the same Tensor CPU + Mali GPU and has equal if not better performance
25th Nov 2022
So if on a pay monthly with another provider, can i just put that SIM into new phone, or do I have to use PAYG sim first?
Author
25th Nov 2022
Yeah, you can start using your current sim in this immediately
25th Nov 2022
Is this available in store too?
25th Nov 2022
That’s a lot of phone for the price.
25th Nov 2022
I don’t know much about the 6A but when I needed a cheap phone I bought a 3a which was quite a bit dearer than this and I ended up keeping it over 2 years as it was brilliant. Bit cheap and flimsy in the hand but it was a great performer. I suspect this should be better
25th Nov 2022
Many years ago my Vodafone sourced Huawei Smartphone retained some Vodafone branded features and Apps after being unlocked. These were impossible to remove, much to my disappointment.

Can anybody with this already unlocked Vodafone Pixel 6a say if various Vodafone Apps are still pre-installed and are not subsequently deletable by the purchaser.

In other words, would there be any evidence that the 6a was originally a Vodafone sourced product, apart from some branding on the box! Thanks.
25th Nov 2022
Bargain, ordered! Thank you.
25th Nov 2022
I am currently a iPhone 8 user, how does this compare to my current phone? Also how would one transfer data/apps etc. from Apple to Google?? #Confused.com
25th Nov 2022
you can compare phones on notebookcheck

for ech comparison eg battery life, processor speed etc add in another phone in comparison

though sometimes there wont be a match if one is really old vs another new one

This will be a better comparison:

I'm finding letting my p30 pro Go so hard it's only the updates that bother me.
Is this the deal? Doesn't seem much of a upgrade for £250 tbh.
26th Nov 2022
I wouldn't say its an upgrade. More comparable with the p30 lite if anything. I've purchased to upgrade my parents from p30 lites. Similar class just newer tech
26th Nov 2022
Does anyone know if these are dual sim? And if you're an existing Vodafone contract customer, do you still have to buy the £10 top up? I remember last time, I bought a PAYG handset from them, they wouldn't sell it without the top up.
