Google Pixel 8a review

 

Google Pixel 8a is now available in many markets, be it via the official Google Store or third-party retailers. It looks a lot like the OG Pixel 8; it...

Sturdy Pixel design, likable, IP67, compact.

Expensive at launch.

We would still have liked to recommend the Pixel 8a, but unfortunately, at third-party retailers, its price is ridiculously close to that of the Pixel 8, which is the better phone by all accounts. The price has begun to go down already, so once it...

Google Pixel 8A review: the sensible choice

 

Hear me out: out of Google's entire Pixel lineup, the A-series budget phone makes the most sense.

Very good camera for its class ; Seven years of OS upgrades ; Good durability with IP67 rating

AI features are a mixed bag ; You can get a better screen for $499

But the Pixel 8A really does stand alone in its combination of good enough features, price, and seven years of promised OS updates. There’s nothing essential missing, and what it lacks in flashy features, it makes up for in sheer ROI. And for someone...

Google Pixel 8a Review

 

Excellent cameras ; Powerful performance ; Useful AI features ; Long battery life ; Seven-year software support

Older protective glass on the front ; Relatively slow charging

The Pixel 8a combines some of the most compelling elements in Google's lineup with few compromises for the price, making it the best Android phone under $500.

Google Pixel 8A

 

Google's latest budget Android phone has great cameras, a fun design, and seven years of software support.

Excellent performance. Nice cameras. Bright, smooth display. Fun design. Smart software features. Wireless charging. IP67 water resistance. Seven years of support. Secure face unlock.

Battery life could be better. You can probably find the Pixel 8 on sale for nearly the same price. Did Real Tone … get worse?

Google's Pixel 8a is an AI phone that punches above its price - especially with this Black Friday deal

 

Google's Pixel 9 may have taken over the spotlight, but the Pixel 8a remains a solid mid-range smartphone with a handful of the same AI features found in the newer models. It's available now for $100 off ahead of Cyber Monday.

The Google Pixel 8a is the best budget Pixel phone you can buy, and if you can find it for $399, it's an even better deal. The smart AI features and long software support make it a formidable and reliable investment, and you won't find a better camera...
