Title: Great phone, good price!
Review: This is an excellent phone and I couldn't tell that it had ever been opened or used. It sure seems to be new. Pixel phones are known for their great cameras and this one is no exception. I'm a photographer from way back and this phone won't replace my DSLR or mirrorless cameras, but it's way better than the cameras built into most low or mid-priced phones. Lots of camera features that will keep you busy learning them all.The phone's processor seems fast to me, there's little or no lag bringing up apps or videos. The phone's signal strength is good. Where I live, the nearest tower is not close enough to provide a strong signal throughout the house, but the Pixel handles it nicely. The battery doesn't last quite as long as my last phone, a mid-priced Samsung. But then again, the more powerful processor probably explains a lot of that. And it always has something displayed on the screen, even when it goes into sleep mode it shows a clock and a couple other indicators like the date, outside temperature and remaining charge.I'm satisfied with my purchase and yes, I recommend this phone if you want a premium phone without the 4 figure price tag.

Title: Quality phone at a great price!
Review: I've had Samsungs for a long time and am quite used to how they work. This phone is still an Android phone, but the interface is a little different. For example, the volume buttons on the right side are lower and the wake button is above them, the opposite of Samsung phones. I can't get all my favorite apps, but there are others that are just as good. The main advantage of this phone is that its screen lock is stronger, and I do not get butt dials like I was getting too frequently with my last Samsung A24. The camera is just as good and the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are also just as good, if not better. It does not have a headphone jack, but Bluetooth earbuds work well with it. I got an Otterbox case that was advertised on Amazon with it for a great price, that fits well and is very protective. So I like it and am glad I got the 7a instead of the latest model - that saved me a lot of money.

Title: Surprisingly Great
Review: READ THE UPDATE FOR FULL REVIEW SO FARSurprisingly good- To be honest I thought it'd have problems-minor and major. But so far there is none. Lots of the reviews say things like it overheats, the fingerprint scanner doesn't always work, and so on. But I was surprised when none of that happened on this phone. In fact, my old phone (which was also used) was horrible. It had the typical used phone problems. Horrible battery life, it overheated, the power button was broken, it froze, it didn't always charge, and so on. I was expecting at least SOME of these problems in this phone. But there is NONE. Anyway, (I'm sure you can tell by my review already) I think it is totally worth spending 300-400 bucks on this phone. I'll soon leave an update with some pros and cons (as of now there is no cons).EDIT/UPDATE- (please be sure to read the last paragraph)Everything I stated earlier is true- and it still works. But now there's a problem. Every time I try to download something, it won't work. It'll say, "please enter your password". Well, I did, and it said it was wrong. To verify that this was true, I tried using the same exact password for my gmail, and guess what? It worked.Still determined, I changed my password. I wrote it down so I could remember it. Once that was accomplished, I was like, "yay, now I'm in the PlayStore". But then, when I tried to download an app, guess what? It asked for that same password. And ok, I'll just put it in. I mean, I just changed it, so the password was written down right in front of me. And when I put it in, it was incorrect. I put it in again. Incorrect. Again. Incorrect. And so on. I also tried putting this password in on my gmail, and yes, it worked.Even if I was doing the wrong password, I changed the one that it needed. Whatever password it asked for, I changed. So if I put it in, it should have worked. But it didn't.It is not just downloading apps. Ever since I signed in to my account on the phone, the fingerprint sensor stopped working. And that was such a bummer, because it had been really useful. One tap, and you are in your phone. But now I have to type in my password, which takes up more time. Of course, who cares, but it's worth mentioning. Anyway, YouTube, which comes installed, didn't work either once I signed in. It, just like everything else, needed the password that was right but the phone denied. Also, the PlayStore wouldn't have worked either, if it wasn't for the time I changed my password (if you change your password, the first time should definitely work). That is pretty much it, but not being able to install apps is a big deal.Because of this, I went to three different AT&T's. The first two didn't do much except for send me to a different location. But at the third one, we stayed for an hour. We reseted passwords, changed them, everything we could think of. But it still failed to work. Anyway, I'm gonna try a few last resorts before I do something about this. But I hope it won't come to returning it. Everything on the phone is great; it's like new. I will try everything I can to keep this phone.Also, this is on a child gmail. My daughter is older than 13, and everyone said it would change to a regular account once she turned 13. But no, that didn't happen. I checked the birthdate listed, and it is correct. So I am not sure if this is the phone's problem, or gmail's (which is why I didn't give it a lower review). Anyway if anything changes I'll write it here and explain how to resolve it.

Title: Great phone case
Review: Great phone case. Snaps together easily and is very sturdy. Shows no signs of use after 5-6 months. I also appreciate how clean the plug has kept my charging port.

Title: Happy to be moving back to the Pixel line
Review: I had moved away from Pixel phones after my Pixel 2 XL due to the price. After bouncing around from OnePlus to Motorola I'm back in the fold and VERY happy with the 7a.The things I was looking for were qi charging (hard to find in midrange phones), NFC payments, good battery life, and long software support. This checked all the boxes. Some of the pleasant surprises were the size (not too big), the clarity of the screen, and the camera. The camera in particular is EXCELLENT.The fingerprint reader is a bit inconsistent, but I've found that if I wet my finger and wipe it off the reader works every time. I've got pretty dry fingertips, so that could explain the issues I have with it. I don't have to store a ton on the phone, so 128gb of space is plenty for me to use the apps that I want and download music and movies for when I'm traveling.You're not going to find a better phone for the price. I got mine on sale for $399, which these days is the most I will pay for a phone.

Review: It take me 2-3 days to make my hands on it. But after some times it turn out to be a quicker and easier phone to work with than my old one with android 13. Everything work fine, finger prints, face recognition, ok photos, great sound but the most important thing that made me choosing it , it's the cable free charge. For the price, i don't think that a could have find better!

Review: Very happy with this phone and learning how to use as it does a lot of stuff. Takes good pictures plus very easy to set up and use. I will see how it holds up but I'm impressed with it so far but time will tell. Has a lot of features that phones twice this price does not have so it is a bargain especially if you get it on sale. Seems to exude quality when you are holding and I put on a screen protector and case ordered from Amazon at time of purchase to protect it before it gets scratched or damaged

Review: Lo que sí me molestó fue que no trae su cargador solo trae el cable de transferencia y por el precio si me dio ganas de regresarlo ya que debería incluir porque necesita uno de carga rápida.Súmale que se apagó solo y ahora no quiere encender, el vendedor no me contesta para la garantía y aún me sigue cobrando. No compren!

Review: Just to be clear, this is what you will receive (see attached picture). For me it seems to work fine (UK, Giffgaff operator), luckilyAnd another one: since this is a Japanese phone, you CANNOT disable the camera sound, a "detail" you may find pretty annoying (I'm okay with that albeit I find it pretty silly).
