NB: The reported price drop is calculated by comparing the lowest price of the day to the average of the lowest prices charged by all merchants for the product in the previous month, with security rules to exclude prices from shops where the VAT policy is unclear (known as “grey” shops, usually in the case of imports from China).

Alternatively

Google’s Pixel 6a is no demerit compared to the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro. This smartphone, which is the “affordable” version, convinces with undeniable advantages: good screen quality, more than satisfactory performance and a very controlled part of the picture. It also has the merit of being IP67 certified, borrowing this characteristic from high-end terminals. What’s missing is slightly faster charging, higher screen brightness and more refresh rate. But at the price of its launch, few – or even no smartphones – have been able to do as well so far, with the important guarantee of ensuring long-term monitoring of the software.
