Google Pixel 8a 5G 6.1'' 8GB RAM 128GB ROM Android 14 Nano SIM - Obsidian

The Pixel 8a has a similar design, but its front glass is an older Gorilla Glass 3 and the rear part is entirely made of plastic, the camera housing included. It is IP67-rated for dust and water resistance, and it is available in familiar colour. 

The Pixel 8a employs a bit smaller 6.1-inch OLED screen of extended 1080p resolution and 120Hz refresh rate. It has the same Tensor G3 processor as the Pixel 8 and offers the same memory configuration of 8GB RAM + 128GB UFS storage.

Of course, the camera is what everyone thinks when hearing a Pixel and it will be one of the most discussed aspects about the Pixel 8a. Here we also have a dual-camera setup like on the Pixel 8, but with different sensors - a 64MP OIS primary and a 13MP FF ultrawide. The front camera is also a 13MP, with the same ultrawide lens as on the Pixel 8.

Finally, the Pixel 8a is powered by a 4,492mAh battery capable of up to 30W or so fast wired and up to 7.5W of wireless charging.

Google Pixel 8a seems like a solid little flagship, one of the very few on the market, and also one that doesn't cost a thousand dollars/euros. The slow 18W wired charging is a glaring omission on the spec sheet, though.

Google was one of the first makers to limit the retail box contents. The Pixel 8a package includes a USB-C cable and a USB-A-to-C adapter.
