We have two 9a's in our house and they are working flawlessly. First year we havent upgraded to the next A series simply because the 10a hardware is almost identical.

The biggest issue we have would be the charging speeds, but this is more than made up with a big battery that lasts well past a day.

You definitely sound like you have a defective phone. The phone would still be within 2 years manufacturers warranty, I would be sending it in.

A lot of those issues could be software issues. It would be worth resetting it to see if that fixes anything

For those who bought the phone previously, what did you go with the texts and minutes you bought with the €20 if you didn't switch your number?

Did you make use of them in some way?

I took out a 48 sim without setting up any plan and switched it to 3 with no plan. Never had to top up anything. Phone arrived and I put my gomo SIM into it and away I went

The pixel 10a is €250 if you switch your number to Vodafone. Possibly a mandatory 20 euro top up also depending on how nice / bothered your sales person is!

Ends June 9th.

Edit: I see ITV2 got there before me with a dedicated thread:
