Google’s sudden and unexpected trade-in price increase is a good opportunity to swap your defective Pixel 6a for $524. A price you will not get for it anywhere else.

The good news? You're getting Android 16! The bad news: the update will reduce battery capacity once you hit 400 charges. But you could get some cash for your trouble.

Google has detailed the remedies for its upcoming Pixel 6a battery reduction update, including a $150 credit towards a new phone.
