    I'm making Pixel 5a my next phone. I wanted to wait for Pixel 6, but it doesn't have the rear-mounted fingerprint sensor. I'm so used to it at this point I'm going to hate everything else.
    Pixel 5a has 15% better battery over Pixel 5, and it has a minijack.

    Btw, I've been thinking, what stops us from using minijack as standard port for all phone connections, incl. charging?
    USB-c is fine, is better than mini-USB because it has no up or down orientation, but the plug becomes loose over time.
    Minijack has no sides because its round, and its so tight you can hold the phone hanging by the cord.

    tl;dr: New technology does not excite me anymore
