(which you can organise via chat, by logging into your google account, and visiting here). Google is however covering the issue under warranty. The phone needs to be repaired by a professional. Unfortunately for everyone, there isnt one. But nobody is really explaining what the cause of the issue is. As seen here, here, here, & here, even googles own support forums. You only have to type “Google Pixel 50% battery” into google to see the hundreds of articles or thousands of users experiencing the same thing. Then, after a bit of online research I noticed I wasn’t alone. I first noticed this issue on my own device.
You may read that list and surmise that the Pixel 5 is the more capable phone. Those perks include wireless charging, more RAM, slightly better water resistance, a 90Hz display and mmWave 5G. With the arrival of the Pixel 5a, the Pixel 5 goes from being overpriced to not worth considering unless you need a smaller phone or absolutely can't live with the few advantages it has over its much cheaper relative.

In practice, they're about even with both comfortably lasting a full day on a charge. On paper, the Pixel 5a with its 4,680mAh battery should have a slight endurance advantage over the Pixel 5 and its 4,080mAh cell. What you get with both phones is the sub-6Ghz flavor of 5G, which has wide-reaching coverage albeit, much slower speeds. It's a reasonable trade-off for the Pixel 5a because mmWave coverage remains limited to small corners of certain US cities. Pixel 5a: 5Gīoth phones support 5G but only the Pixel 5 gets mmWave 5G connectivity for the fastest wireless speeds. As a result, Pixel 5a's Geekbench 5 multi-core score was just 1,345, considerably lower than the Pixel 5's 1,617. How could that be? Because the phone comes with 8GB of RAM instead of the 6GB found in the Pixel 5a. Let's return to our face-off with a spoiler: the Pixel 5 wins this round. That honor goes to the Snapdragon 888 or 888 Plus, which you'll find in the Samsung Galaxy S21 and OnePlus 9. Both are bright, vivid OLED panels though the Pixel 5 has a few important advantages.īefore I go any further, let me read you the fine print: This is not the processor powering most flagship phones in 2021. The Pixel 5 has a 6-inch, 2340 x 1080-pixel display while the Pixel 5a has a 6.34-inch, 2,400 x 1080-pixel screen.
You'd think the more expensive phone would have the larger display. And yet, the Pixel 5 comes in Black and Sorta Sage while the Pixel 5a comes in Mostly Black, which has a hint of forest green. Google's brand image is synonymous with fun, colorful hues. The last thing I want to mention is color, or lack thereof. The Pixel 5a fires back in this round with a 3.5mm jack for those who still listen to wired headphones. That's because the Pixel 5a gained its own IP67 water-resistance rating, meaning it can survive being submerged in 3 meters of water for 30 minutes (whereas the Pixel 5 can swim in 6-meter depths).
One clear-cut design win for the Pixel 5 is its IP68 waterproof rating, but even then, the advantage is more narrow than before.
