The OLED display panel of the Pixel 5a with 5G is plenty sharp, vibrant, and, measuring 6.34 inches diagonally, the biggest in an A-Series Google phone to date. The new Pixel’s insanely convenient fingerprint sensor is also a standout feature, which I find particularly convenient for unlocking the phone while wearing a face mask. The Pixel 5a with 5G has a standard audio jack, which is a feature no longer available on most high-end phones. This time around, Google gave the commonly used hardware button a textured finish so you won’t mistake it for the volume key - a small feature that I love about this device. Like many Pixel phones that came before it, the latest one has a characterful power button with a contrasting finish. A first for an A-series Pixel and a rarity in its price category, the added durability puts the phone on par with much pricier products, making it infinitely more desirable. With an official IP67 rating, water and dust resistance is another big design improvement that the Pixel 5a with 5G brings.
