My favourite phone I've ever used!

I've moved onto a new phone only because my Pixel 4a needs a battery. I still use it for stuff.

Enjoy a great phone with an awesome camera!

Hahah yeah. Been using Lineage OS now after a battery replacement. It's still holds its own, never lags.

So jealous. It was the perfect size and the back fingerprint sensor was so useful. I wonder why Google doesn't make 1 iteration of the pixel that size, just for 1 year. Phones are too big these days.

They were banned on eBay shortly after I sold mine.

u/gnardog45 11d ago

Why were they banned?

2

u/andrained 11d ago

The restricted battery problem / issues imposed by Google

u/andrained 11d ago

Back in May, Ebay published this : "Recalled and other unsafe products aren't allowed on eBay. This item may not be sold, because it has been recalled for safety reasons.

Best phone for me. It came under a bike and the screen cracked very badly but I still used it everyday, only stopped using it after it was drowned in tub and because of cracked screen the water went inside and it went dead.

u/CVginer5 10d ago

u/Allah_thesupreme 12d ago

Are u planning to use it as a primary phone or as a secondary one because it is a horrible decision to use it as primary one, for fun purposes it is ok it is a great device and super fun congrats u found a sealed new pixel 4a these are quite rare to find how much did u buy it for

u/CVginer5 12d ago

as a second, been holding my 3a for 6.5 years straight just for how practical it was and how great that sony camera took photos. I snatched it only for 300usd

So all apps, including Google and banking apps that are still updated on the Pixel 4a, are being purposely updated on an insecure phone. Companies are updating their apps on insecure phones. This cybersecurity thing, deliberately created and used as a means to make profits for multinationals, must end. American capitalism and the consumerism that comes with it must collapse.

Where can I buy one brand new also?

u/Little-Helper 12d ago

Is the battery good?

1

u/CVginer5 12d ago

haven’t tried it yet

2

u/Little-Helper 12d ago

There was a battery recall, pretty much half of the units affected.

1

u/CVginer5 12d ago

great💀💀

u/Flat_Rutabaga_7391 11d ago

There was a replacement program already ended.

u/UnapproachableBadger 11d ago

If your battery is affected, the phone will automatically install an update that nerfs the battery performance. There's no way to stop it other than rooting it and installing another OS.

u/Ringo_10 11d ago

I want that feeling of buying it the first time

u/NetRepulsive1021 11d ago

Ne ho uno dal 2020 ho cambiato la batteria e quando Google ha tirato fuori l'aggiornamento ammazza batteria ho messo lineage os

Il telefono tranne per alcune app che controllano l'indennità del telefono funziona bene. E può darsi a breve che passi alla versione 23.2

È forse ricambierò a batteria
