  • Good looking phone, but it overheats constantly, what kills battery, and freezes app a lot.

    Phone is good looking. Very nice display. Makes good pictures, but it constantly overheats even when only 2 apps are on. Frame gets extremly hot. Sometimes the apps freeze. Battery don't even last a day.
    Two software probles for me are:
    -you cannot clone the apps, so if you want a dual sim phone on which you are going to use Whatsapp for both sim cards/numbers, it's bettter to choose other phone. (On Pixel 7a you can use WhatsApp for Business, and normal Whatsapp. It works, but is far, far less convinient than just cloning the app like on any other Android phone)
    -you can't turn on flashlight by clicking twice side button or by shaking the phone (you have to unlock the phone and then you can make other gesture) - not convinient.

    Pros
    • good looking
    • nice dislay
    • good camera
    Cons
    • battery
    • overheating
    • can not clone whatsapp for dual sim

  • Absolutely happy

    I have changed from Xiaomi to Pixel. I had two Xiaomis and always some repairs going on. I found the Pixie 7a as a very robust device, with a superb camera. The connectivity is great, the receiption strong, and the speakers make fun to watch also "hear" sound. I am positively surprised. The battery lasts for a good day. The charging could be faster though.

    Pros
    • The technical stuff
    • Design
    • Robust
    • Latest Android with Security Updates for 5y
    • Top camera
    • Good speakers
    Cons
    • Scope of delivery (only cable but no cover and plug)
    • Battery could last bit longer and charge faster
    • Could be IP68 instead IP67

    Good smartphone, but with terrible autonomy

    The smartphone consumes a lot of battery, screen time on only 5h. Other than that, the system runs smoothly and takes good photos.

    Pros
    • Photography
    • Clean Android
    • Updates
    • Size
    Cons
    • No SD card slot
    • Battery consumption

    A successful choice

    I am pleasantly happy with the choice of this device. I am surprised that there are positive reviews regarding the battery life, it lasts a day and a half for me and I use it normally. I arrive at the end of the day with more than 50% of it. The bad thing is the charging is very, very slow, I come from a device like the Nord 2 that charged in 40 minutes, this takes a couple of hours. The photos are great, I'm in love with it..... Very fluid, on a day-to-day basis.... Super happy...

    Pros
    • The camera
    • The updates
    • OS
    Cons
    • Slow loading
    • 9.4

What is a Ki score?
Ki is an automatic score based on the specifications and prices of devices. It is calculated using over 200 variables to rank smartphones, tablets and other devices from best to worst.
How do we calculate the Ki?

In this case, to determine the score we evaluate 5 general aspects:

  • Design and screen
  • Hardware and performance
  • Camera
  • Connectivity
  • Battery

Once these 5 factors have been rated, we introduce the price variable. This means that any two devices with the same ratings get a different Ki score for quality vs price.

Even a device objectively worse than another may have a higher Ki score if it has a better price.

Does the Ki score change?

The Ki varies as time goes by. As new devices with better specifications enter the market the Ki score of older devices will go down, always being compensated of their decrease in price.
