The Google Pixel 8a offers a lot for the price you’d pay. A powerful camera, flagship-tier AI features, a bright Actua display with 120Hz refresh rate and the latest Android updates before any other non-Pixel phones. Not to mention 7 years of those updates, and the fairly reasonable price of $499.
But despite all the benefits and low pricing, the Pixel 8a has to offer, it is still an A-Series Pixel. The high cost may have been one of the reasons why I ended up canceling my Pixel 8 Pro pre-order last year, but it wasn’t the only factor. Sure the Pixel 8a has a lot to offer compared to my own Pixel 6 Pro, but we are only a few months away from the launch of the Pixel 9 series — which will have a bunch more to offer.
