The Google Pixel 6a is slightly better than Xperia X, getting a general score of 76.4 against 72.9. Google Pixel 6a's design is a lot newer, but somewhat thicker and heavier than Xperia X.

Google Pixel 6a has a greater memory for apps and games than Xperia X, because although it has no SD memory card expansion slot, it also counts with more internal storage. The Sony Xperia X has a way better performance than Google Pixel 6a, although it has less RAM memory, they both have a Hexa-Core CPU.
Google Pixel 6a features a way better battery performance than Xperia X, because it has a 4410mAh battery size against 2620mAh. The Xperia X counts with a bit better camera than Google Pixel 6a, because although it has a tinier aperture which is not nice for low-light images and video, and they both have the same 60 frames per second video frame rate and the same 1920x1080 (Full HD) video resolution, the Xperia X also counts with a much more mega-pixels camera.
Although Google Pixel 6a is a better device, it costs a lot more than the Xperia X, and it doesn't have such a good price and quality relation as the Xperia X. If you want to save a few dollars, you can buy the Xperia X, giving up a couple features and specs, but you'll get the most with your money.
