Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.The charcoal-coloured Pixel 6a is on sale at Amazon for £320 today, an £80 saving on its usual price.
Google launched the budget-friendly 5G phone last July. A cheaper alternative to the flagship Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro devices, it’s an affordable Android phone that doesn’t compromise on quality.
In our Pixel 6a review we called it “a pocket-friendly phone, in the figurative sense as well as the literal one. For £399 it unlocks access to the full suite of Pixel-exclusive features, while trimming away some of the super high-end hardware [found in the flagship Pixel phones]”
While a decent saving on a brilliant little phone, this isn’t the cheapest we’ve seen Google’s cheapest Pixel go for. The Android-powered device dropped all the way down to £299 during the Black Friday sale last year.

This smartphone from Google has a long list of impressive features, ranging from slick photo-editing, adaptive battery management, live language translation and Google Assistant abilities.
In our Pixel 6a review, we said: “the Pixel 6a dials back some of the most premium hardware features of the more expensive models, while cramming in all of the clever Google software features that make Pixel phones worth shouting about.”
With 20 per cent off at Amazon, you’re getting even more bang for your buck.
