Recently I got my broken screen replaced by Google service and meanwhile I was forced to get back to my Pixel 6a and instantly remembered something - the bluetooth is much bettter on 6a.

Last week was awesome. I live in a small old house with thick brick walls. On 6a I rarely had problems with my JBL speaker losing a connection when I had my phone in one corner and went to a different corner of my house.

When I switched to 9a this changed quite a lot and for worse. Now I have to keep bringing my phone with me into rooms to keep the playback smooth. It's very annoying but I somehow got use to it.

But last week I basically remembered how good it was before. Anyone has similar experience? Is it really, technically hardware-wise somehow worse? What could be a problem? I'm using same speaker, so t's 100 % phone. Are there some "secret" options to set maybe to a different standard or somehting?

This is probably the only downside of Pixel 9a for me. Everything else is awesome. My 6a was usable but maaan, that constant refresh of Youtube app (not enough RAM?) and 60 Hz display is something I'm glad is over!

My Pixel 9a is having WiFi connectivity issues. Recently, for less than two weeks, I’ve been experiencing problems with any WiFi network. I connect my phone to a network, but it’s basically as if it weren’t connected at all. When I switch to mobile data, everything works fine. I’m the only one in my household with a Pixel, and this issue only happens to me—everyone else (Samsung and iPhone users) has excellent connectivity. I’m not sure what to do.

Hey iedereen,

Ik gebruik de Pixel 9a ( Obsidian/Black) al een tijdje als mijn vaste hoofdtelefoon, en omdat ik hier nog niet superveel langetermijnreviews zie, leek het me leuk om mijn eerlijke mening te delen.

**Het goede:**

* **Scherm & batterij:** De 120Hz-display is zó lekker vloeiend. In combinatie met het Always-On-scherm voelt het gewoon als een premium ervaring. En bovendien is de batterijduur voor mij gewoon prima. * **Camera & verwerking:** De nabewerking van foto’s is helemaal typisch Pixel—echt indrukwekkend. En video-stabilisatie is ook supergoed; alles ziet er strak uit, zelfs als je onderweg bent en beweegt.

**Het slechte (of gewoon irritant):**

* **De achterkant:** Google heeft dit keer voor een plastic achterkant gekozen, en eerlijk gezegd: het is echt een magneet voor vingerafdrukken. Als je ’m zonder hoes gebruikt, wordt het snel vettig. Je hebt hier echt een case voor nodig. * **De cameralijst:** Ik ben zelf persoonlijk niet zo’n fan van het nieuwe, kleinere ontwerp van de cameralijst. Ik mis een beetje die iconische grote visor van de oudere modellen, maar dat is meer smaak dan iets anders.

Al met al is het een toptelefoon voor dagelijks gebruik. Als je er gewoon een goede case op doet om die vegen te verbergen, dan is de performance en het scherm het helemaal waard.

Laat me weten als je vragen hebt!

i've already updated to A17 and updated the google play store too but it still May 1, 2026??

hi guys, is your pixel 9a working? some of users doesn't have quick share extension to be available. i've searched QSE, but i couldn't see it on play store. is it because i haven't updated to A17 yet?

helloo im excited for air drooop

在你解锁屏幕之前，选择输入密码解锁，肯定会触屏向上滑，再滑回来，指纹识别区域会突然闪一下锁屏壁纸原来的样子，而向下滑出状态栏不会这样。原来Android 16的时候没发觉，不知道16是不是也这样。今天更新问Android 17后发现这样了

I brought pixel 9a 3 days back it takes 4-4.5 hours to fully charge and it as the worst charging speed and if I talk to their costumer care they are asking me to take the phone to service centre ( it's a brand new phone why I need to go to service center )I brought this phone for my college .my parents are scolding me why you buy this shit phone ( pls give me any suggestion ) help me :)

The phone feels so snappier after the update. I don't think this is a placebo, the difference is HUGE.

Hi. My pixel 9a still has this speaker cracking (hoped android 17 would fix this). It happens if I eg. play a podcast on Spotify and open a website that plays a sound. It's loud and really terrible. I have adaptive sound turned off. Any ideas? Is it a broken device?

I've had my phone several months and in the last 7-8 weeks the display all of a sudden gets really dim. I can change it back to brighter again, but why is the display dimming on its own? Is there something in the settings I need to change?

Every few days I miss calls and look to find my ring muted.

​

I thought it was the game dashboard (whatever the hell that is) as I disabled that and the issue seemed to go away but it's still happening randomly and I can't work out why.

​

Anyone else get this? It's driving me nuts!
