It entirely depends on price and your urgency.
Given that 7a will be coming out shortly, I advice you to wait a month until it comes out. Once out you'll know the exact price and specs/performance. Also it will cause the price of the 6a and the 7 to drop as well. Then you will have a better comparison point.
IMO the 7a might be worth an extra 100-120 USD, but probably no more. Ultimately its "you" that has to decide whats worth what to you.
Price IMO is that big deciding factor.
undwersq If your phone is still receiving security updates, I would suggest waiting for the new Pixel

undwersq Enable lockdown mode if you can and it will be fine.
6a is a spectacular phone. No doubt the 7a will similarity deliver.

guitaroctavebee is it getting privacy updates too? I know from experience smaller communities care more. With the fruit you're just a minion worth exploiting, nothing else (course they won't say that in your face). Low class minions, middle class minions, minions at the top, still minions. It's amazing to see how value of life deprecates with increasing population over time.

[deleted] iPhones can be better than Pixels with GrapheneOS. I tried it on my iPad and you can maintain high security and high privacy with high convenience. The price for that is that you have to trust Apple.

[deleted] I have to admit that I am one of those people who have to rely on second hand information when it comes to Apple and iOS. And yes, iOS can be more convenient and perhaps in certain aspects more secure than google free GOS (which is up for a debate). If I had to choose whether I want to be in a Google or Apple data pool, I'd choose none. But in real life I choose the lesser of two weevils and go with as much as possible degoogled Android. And GOS gives me just that.
iPhone 14 costs 3 times more than Pixel 6a. Apple usually provides iOS upgrades for up to 6 years (same as Android).
