Google Pixel 6a
Google Pixel 6A was launched as a response to the SE lineup from Apple, which also acts as an entry-level offering for people who want to get into the Pixel ecosystem, but without having to spend so much money on the flagship offerings. Thankfully, the 6A features most of the same hardware as the Pixel 6, including the Google Tensor processor, the dual rear camera array, as well as the in-display optical fingerprint reader. The only major difference here is the display itself, which is a smaller OLED panel but is still equally responsive at 90Hz.
