The Google Pixel 6a was unveiled in May officially, but there have been copious leaks before and since, including a short unboxing video. Want to see a longer one? YouTuber Fazli Halim has published an 11-minute long video wiht the phone.
Now, Halim speaks Malay and the automatic subtitles and translation don’t do a good job. But the specs of the phone are already known – 6.1” AMOLED display (60Hz), 12.2MP wide and 12MP ultra wide cameras, Google Tensor chipset, 4,410mAh battery with 18W fast charging and a $450 price tag.

The retail package contains a USB C-to-C cable and a transfer adapter (USB-C to female A), which can be used to pull data from your old phone. Here’s the video, below that we’ve listed some key moments you might not want to miss:
At the 2:30 mark, Halim compares the Pixel 6a to the 6 Pro, which has a noticeably bulkier camera visor (with more advanced hardware inside, of course). You can see the camera in action at 8:50 and Halim did tweet out one photo. Unfortunately, we can only see it after Twitter’s compression.
