Google has shifted gears with the Pixel 5, packing in a mid-range processor while adding 5G support, boosting the battery life, and shaving down the price point. It’s a more compelling phone than its predecessor, but the cheaper Pixel 4a 5G is a better value. I tested the Pixel 5 for nearly a full week.
