The Google Pixel 6a costs £399 ( $449/ A$749) with 128GB of storage in a choice of three colours shipping on 28 July.įor comparison, the Pixel 6 costs £599, the Samsung Galaxy A53 costs £399, the Nothing Phone 1 costs £399, the Fairphone 4 costs £499 and the Apple iPhone SE costs £419. Overall, while the 6a can’t quite match the cameras on the Pixel 6, it really isn’t that far off in beating smartphones costing more than twice the price and trouncing the mid-range competition. The camera app has many of the features as Google’s other phones, including the object eraser or camouflage tools, which recolours distracting and unwanted elements of a photo to make them less obvious. The 8MP selfie camera is similarly effective capturing a great amount of detail. Portrait mode is very good and works on objects and pets as well as people, while video quality up to 4K at 60 frames a second is solid. The dedicated night sight mode produces great images in low light while the digital zoom is pretty good at 2x but unravels by 7x. The ultrawide is similarly good if slightly softer on fine details but it is consistent on colour and tone to the main camera, which isn’t the case for most at this price. The main camera produces very well-balanced photos, rich in detail and dynamic range across a range of light levels.

Google’s camera software is some of the very best in the business and as a result the 6a shoots photos that beat many phones costing twice the price. The Pixel 6a has a pair of 12-megapixel cameras on the back: one main and one ultrawide, but no telephoto camera for zoom.

Full performance evaluations are available upon request. The following section gathers key elements of DXOMARK’s exhaustive tests and analyses. More details on smartphone camera scores are available here. For more information about the DXOMARK Camera protocol, click here. Photo, Zoom, and Video quality are scored separately and then combined into an Overall score for comparison among the cameras in different devices. Testing a smartphone involves a team of engineers and technicians for about a week. The scores rely on objective tests for which the results are calculated directly by measurement software on our laboratory setups, and on perceptual tests in which a sophisticated set of metrics allow a panel of image experts to compare aspects of image quality that require human judgment. Test summaryĪbout DXOMARK Camera tests: DXOMARK’s Camera evaluations take place in laboratories and in real-world situations using a wide variety of subjects. In the case of the Pixel 7, this was 4K resolution at 30 frames per second, with the HDR10+ option disabled. However, temporal noise was visible, especially in HDR and low-light scenes.ĭXOMARK tests video at the settings that provide the overall best quality. Detail was good, especially in bright light, and the stabilization did a good job of keeping things steady.

The autofocus reacted swiftly and kept moving subjects in focus. In video clips, the Pixel 7 delivered good exposure and a wide dynamic range. Zoom performance was where the Pixel 7 lagged behind the Pixel 7 Pro, due to the lack of a dedicated tele lens and a narrower field of view on the ultra-wide camera. On the downside, some noise was noticeable in the shadow areas of the frame. The autofocus was fast and accurate, test images showed high levels of detail, and artifacts were well under control, with only some aliasing noticeable. Target exposure was accurate, with a wide dynamic range and nice contrast, making the Google device a great option for portrait photography.

In still images, the Pixel 7 delivered nice skin tones and natural white balance in most test conditions. But as our results showed, that didn’t deter from the Pixel 7’s excellent camera experience. With both two models having the same primary camera and a nearly the same ultra-wide camera, the major difference in the setup is that the Pixel 7 is not equipped with a tele module like the Pixel 7 Pro.
