[GOOGLE PIXEL 10A REVIEW] Before spending a week in San Francisco with a $1300 phone, I went to Taiwan for a peek at a $500 one. If you’re shopping midrange phones, you already know Google’s A-series brings some of the best value in the game. The Pixel 10a is no exception – but it’s so similar to its forerunner that, upon its announcement, many mobile mavens found themselves wondering why it even exists. I can relate, sorta: I declined the opportunity to review last year’s Pixel 9a, in part because of a lack of things to say. But this year, I got the chance to go deeper – with a visit to Google’s Pixel labs in Taiwan. There, I got to see how the 10a was tested, from drowning machines to drop tests to … pretend posteriors. After Taipei, I spent ten days with the 10a Stateside to confirm what I already suspected: this is the only $500 Android I'd recommend (for now). [ABOUT MRMOBILE'S GOOGLE PIXEL 10A REVIEW] This video was produced following ten days with a Pixel 10a review sample provided by Google, which also provided travel and accommodation for MrMobile and other media to attend a tour of Google's testing facilities in Taiwan. MrMobile does not offer manufacturers the opportunity to preview, edit or approve content before publication. Neither Google nor any other manufacturer provided compensation in exchange for this coverage. The lone sponsor of this video is Surfshark.
