Pixel 4a 5G will be the 4a XL?

Who is buying the "4a XL" because of the bigger display?

I am.

Will be upgrading from a OnePlus 6t, CPU performance is similar between the SD845 and SD765G.

Phone size comparison with the Pixel 4a: https://j.mp/2QFNDtU

The Pixel 4a looks really small compared to the OP 6T!

It does, but this is the forum for the 4a 5G which is similar in size to the OnePlus 5:

I'll be upgrading my PIxel 3a XL to this 4a 5G. I haven't had a daily driver phone for this long in forever so I'm ready for an upgrade.

Thanks for the link. I had to add the 4a, because the 4a 5G is not yet in their database.

I am returning the 4a and getting the 4a 5G

So, I've been holding off on getting a new phone for a long time. I said to myself that I wouldn't buy another phone until a decent sized 5G phone comes out that's not $1000 or more. I've been using the Nexus 6P since I bought it when it was released . The day It arrived in the mail I unlocked it, rooted it and started flashing all sorts of roms and mods until the last Resurrection Remix was released on Oreo and have hung with it since, going through 4 batteries, 3 displays, 2 charging ports and 1 fingerprint sensor. I picked up one inexpensive tablet in the meantime to entertain myself but have finally been able to order the new Google Pixel 4a 5G which should arrive around November 20th. It's going to be a huge difference in specs between the two devices and although from what I understand the software in the Pixel 4a 5G is really good, I'm definitely looking forward to getting the latest Resurrection Remix rom when it's available. I hear it's available for the Pixel 4a and it's excellent. Anyone else waiting to get their hands on this device to start running custom roms and modifying the crap out of it?

Hilarious that I read this, the 6P is still my all time favorite phone, hands down. The size, thin-ness (is that a word) and just overall loved the 6P more than anything. I just got my 4a 5G this week and need to activate it. I did find out today it won't fully work in the VZM 5G UWB band.... which is a bummer, but oh well.

I need to dust off my 6P and update it, just for the memories.

I really liked the 6P myself. Wish I didn't crack the digitizer on it or I'd still use it as a backup. I have my original galaxy nexus as well. That was a good phone back in the day but I didn't realize just how slow it is until I fired it up about 6 months ago. First phone I ever unlocked and rooted. What a great phone the 4a 5G has been so far, I don't have any complaints about it. As far as I know there's no custom recovery for it yet so I'm still holding off on rooting it. There's not a lot of mods and only one custom ROM but I'm sure there are people working on it. Get yours activated, you'll like it.

Bought 4a 5g for the price, and battery life, same camera as pixel apparently

Bought 4a 5g for same camera as Pixel [5]

I would prefere the compacter size of the Pixel 5, but the 'under-display' speaker is a no-go for me. I will wait for the 5a! ;-) My 4a5G is still in it's unopened box, since my Pixel 2 is running official LineageOS with current security updates and does all I want.
