Comparison review

Google Pixel 4a 5G has a global score of 87.5, which is just a bit better than Samsung Galaxy S6's 87.4 global score. These phones work with Android OS (operating system), but Google Pixel 4a 5G has a newer 11 version and Samsung Galaxy S6 has Android 5.0 version. The Google Pixel 4a 5G construction is extremely newer, but heavier and thicker than the Samsung Galaxy S6.

The Samsung Galaxy S6 features a bit better processor than Google Pixel 4a 5G, because although it has lesser RAM memory, and they both have the same number of cores, the Samsung Galaxy S6 also counts with a GPU and a 64-bits processor. The Galaxy S6 features a much sharper screen than Google Pixel 4a 5G, because although it has a quite smaller screen, it also counts with more pixels per inch in the screen and a better 2560 x 1440 resolution.

The Google Pixel 4a 5G counts with as much storage to install games and applications as Galaxy S6, both of them have exactly the same 128 GB internal memory. Google Pixel 4a 5G shoots a little bit better photos and videos than Galaxy S6, because although it has a worse 3840x2160 (4K) video definition and a camera in the back with a lot worse resolution, it also counts with a larger sensor capturing more light and vivid colors and a larger aperture to capture better photography in poorly lited environments.

Google Pixel 4a 5G counts with a way better battery duration than Samsung Galaxy S6, because it has 3885mAh of battery capacity.

Although Google Pixel 4a 5G is a better device, it costs a lot more than the Galaxy S6, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as Galaxy S6. If you prefer to save a few dollars, you can get Galaxy S6, giving up a couple features and specs, but you'll get the most with your budget.
