Happy new year! Think you’ve missed the chance to treat yourself to a great phone deal now that Christmas is over? Think again!

At iD Mobile, we’re all about great offers all year round. And this month, we’ve got some pretty epic deals on Google’s Pixel range. With the best elements of the Android experience combined with 5G connectivity, a powerful chip, a crystal-clear OLED screen and incredible cameras, Google Pixel phones can handle it all.

Both the Google Pixel 4a 5G and the Google Pixel 5 launched in October, and they’re up there with the best smartphones of 2020. The first Google phones packed with 5G compatibility, both the Pixel 4a and Pixel 5 offer incredible download speeds and a stripped-back, clean looking interface that’ll please even the most devoted Apple fans.

We love the cameras on both phones. While they have the same dual 12MP and 16MP Ultra-Wide lens setup, it’s the brilliant AI that’s the star of the show. The Night Sight feature allows you to capture stunning photography in low light without the need to use the flash. And it’s smart enough to detect when the scene you’re shooting is dark, letting you select Night Sight mode with a quick tap.

That AI brings the best out of both phones’ batteries, too. Adaptive Battery learns which apps you rely on the most and gives them priority when it comes to power. The battery can last up to 48 hours with the help of Extreme Battery Saver, so you can leave the charger at home.

 

Next-Gen Google Assistant

With the help of next-gen Google Assistant, the Google Pixel 4a and Pixel 5G can do practically whatever you ask. Dictate a catch-up message to a mate to send a text without typing, or request that song you can’t wait to hear. Connect up your smart devices and control your tech at home using your voice, or simply set a reminder to turn the oven on at the right time – Google Assistant makes it all possible.

Both phones are available from iD mobile right now, starting from £24.99 a month for the Pixel 4a 5G and £27.99 a month for the Pixel 5. Just tap our handy new Shop button at the top of the Community page to find out more!

When I registered with ID and transferred my number all was great. I thought. My wife had an account  with ID, they gave her my number and me a new one I couldn't contact ID as it was run by a Q&A none of which was of use to me after getting to dept because I cancelled my direct debit until I got some response from ID It didn't take long before I got a response eventually we got it sorted, a new D D set up Then they cancelled the wife phone now all is ok,I am back to one account. The moral of this story is DONT LET COMPUTERS RU YOUR BUSINESS

We’re in a pandemic and I’m at home using my wifi, so it’s incredibly annoying when you take away my rolled over credit which I’ve paid for.  Tantamount to theft.

How about rewarding loyalty from customers with extra Data for each 12 months. 😃

Ooh, data roll-over, and could the community have a spot for new new users to talk to someone who's had a phone for a while.

When buying say 'would you mind if you were contacted in the forum anonymously (or with an avatar)' that way people would know more about their phones.

Being new to iD and the community I am obvs still getting to know my way around, but happy with the switch and port of my existing number. I would like the ability to have visual voicemail though.

As others have said data rollover for longer than a month particularly at the moment when everyone is stuck at home so not using much of their data allowance.

Also unlimited data for key workers including supermarket workers /bus drivers etc during this lockdown would be really appreciated

I think that you could make entering the competitions easier, because unless this is the right place to enter it, then I cannot find it, but the fact that I am unsure means that it is not easy for some of us older people.

I have had a very acceptable experience with ID since I bought the SIMO for my Daughter. The data rollover is great considering the fact that she is usually on WIFI so doesn’t lose the use of what she is paying for just because she is stuck at home. One thing that would be great to see is if you could include certain services that don’t use up the data, for instance say Whatsapp usage doesn’t come out of your allowance or Disney+ streaming. I don’t know how the back end of these deals would look but I bet that these services would subsidise the lost revenue somehow?

As noone is really using minutes or text from abroad at the moment perhaps offset this with free minutes to other countries from the UK to let families that are apart keep in touch easier.

The only other thing I can think of is that I am considering buying more SIMO deals for myself and other children as our contracts come to and end, if there could be some form of discount for additional lines, the more you take the bigger the discount.

Hope you all stay well

Roll over all data (or even double up unused data) to help out all the families that have to use mobile data for school lessons while we are in lock down

I am pleased with the service I get from ID mobile. In terms of improvements, it would be useful to be able to turn off mobile data from the account page on the internet, rather than just from the device.

I have no qualms with my ID experience so far, very good value for money. The unlimited data for NHS workers was lovely to have.

Free european data roaming would be a dream if that's at all possible 😊 useful articles on latest features, 5G and security could be interesting. Happy 2021!

Haven't used iDCommunity much other than for queries and then with not much success. I struggle to follow chats with either too much going on or lots of repeated comments.

I'd like to open my email, click the link and log in without having to change my password every single time to access the community. 

Can you make it easier to log in.

Otherwise very happy with ID and the community.

“How to enter the competition”, is usually something that precedes instructions…....

So is that a question or what, because although you have used three question marks, you haven’t actually written a question have you???

Those ??? are frustration marks! I just noticed you also posted you would like entering competitions made easier.  So to re-phrase.. I would like to enter the competition, but how?

To be honest everything about ID is great not much that needs fixing

Have been happy with your service for a couple of years. Would be nice to speak to a person because have found it difficult through emails etc. Keep up the good work.

Perhaps offer some sim-free phones for purchase on your website. Other than that, keep up the good work. :relaxed:

Only a small thing but I'd like if our data could roll over multiple months rather than just one. I'm very happy with the service I get from ID, I've always found it very easy to upgrade and very competitive prices.

Everything is good except make it easier to get a second sim card or inform that you need to set up a new account in order to get a second sim card.

Overall, I'm happy with the service I've been provided, the signal strength in certain areas around Hull could be better, however.
