Despite the release of the Pixel 7a, the Pixel 6a remains one of the best budget phones you can buy in the U.S. right now. It borrows a lot from the flagship Pixel 6 and the Pixel 6 Pro and can be had for as little as $350. That's an excellent price for a phone that brings the same high-end chipset as the Pixel 6 series, along with the same software experience and a pair of cameras that holds up pretty well in 2023.

It's a reliable mid-ranger that works well and is ready to go out of the box, but you can improve your experience further by pairing it with some neat accessories. Google doesn't include a charger or a pair of earbuds with the Pixel 6a, so I've highlighted some of the best chargers, cables, wireless earbuds, and more as a part of the best Google Pixel 6a accessories roundup below.

  • Best charger

Best chargers, cables, and accessories for the Google Pixel 6a

That brings us to the end of this particular roundup. I'd go with the Spigen ArcStation Pro GaN charger if I were to buy a solid charger for the Pixel 6a. It's one of the most compact USB-PD chargers you'll find on the market, and it's also cheaper than plenty of options mentioned in this roundup. You can also buy it in black and white colors, both of which are often available at discounted prices. Additionally, I've also highlighted some other reliable accessories for the Pixel 6a, including a car charger, wireless earbuds, cables, and more.

I haven't added any listings of the items to protect your Pixel 6a, but that's because we've already rounded up some of the best Pixel 6a cases and screen protectors separately with lots of good options.
