Three months since using the pixel 6a. I got it because it was the cheapest flagship quality phone I could get. Software wise. Though the camera is good as well.

I find the voice typing real smooth. I also found good use of the recorder app while watching video lectures.

Over all, not a single bug or problem while using it and it runs smooth, without bloatware.

I had a galaxy s9 before this and was daily driving it with the pixel AOSP.

The moment I moved to pixel AOSP on it, I know this is the thing. So I got a one month old Pixel 6a for like 200 USD in the market and didn't think for another second.

This is the closest experience to windows phone I had.

This is just a beginner's post as I get into lemmy.

The only annoyance I have is that after 2-3 updates with the update notes saying they have fixed adaptive charging to not just work at night it still won't do adaptive charging during the day.

I work night shift so my normal sleep schedule is 3pm-10pm except during the weekend, adaptive charging only happens on Friday and Saturday when I plug it in overnight.

We should be able to set a window of time for adaptive charging to be available.
