Why Buy the Google Pixel 9a?
Google launched the Pixel 9a (review) in April, less than a year after its predecessor. Despite the short gap, this mid-range device has brought more meaningful and notable upgrades from the Pixel 8a. For instance, the design has been overhauled, now featuring flat edges and a flush camera module at the back. It’s a big departure from the iconic visor in previous generations.
Additionally, the device boasts a tougher IP68 dust and water resistance rating. Google also gave it a bigger screen, which now features a 6.3-inch OLED display. It’s also brighter, peaking at 2,700 nits while offering a fast 120 Hz refresh rate. Speaking of more light, the new 48 MP main camera has a larger aperture for brighter shots. There are also AI-enabled camera tools like Add Me.
Under the hood, the Pixel 9a is fitted with a flagship-grade Tensor G4 chipset. This processor offers faster performance and more powerful graphics, which are more than enough to keep the Android experience smooth and stable for demanding processes.
There’s also a larger 5,100 mAh battery capacity, which delivers longer battery life in the Pixel 9a. Charging has been enhanced, retaining fast top-up speeds despite the bigger cells.
The Pixel 9a is one of the top mid-range Android picks if you want a great balance of features and price. Are you looking to snag one this Prime Day? Tell us in the comments.
