Given how most budget phones have 120Hz screens, the 60Hz Google Pixel 6a might put off fans on a budget.
All cheap phones have compromises to keep the price low – that’s a statement about as controversial as saying « water is wet ». But the Google Pixel 6a has one downgrade from the Pixel 6 that might put off phone fans. While the new budget take on Google’s popular Android phone has demerits in a few areas, including a main camera sensor with a lower resolution, a smaller body size and a plastic back, there’s one aspect that sticks out like a sore thumb, and it’s the screen refresh rate. With a 60Hz refresh rate, the Pixel 6a feels out of date, and it doesn’t match the 90Hz of the Pixel 6 or the 120Hz, 144Hz or even 165Hz we see loads in phones of all prices.
