Product details

The Google Pixel 8a is the powerful and secure Google smartphone offered at an attractive price, featuring an impressive camera and Google AI. It is powered by the Google Tensor G3 processor, which makes the device fast and efficient while enabling innovative photo and video features that smartly simplify your everyday life. The intelligent battery can last over 24 hours – and with the Extreme Battery Saver mode activated right after charging, it can last up to 72 hours.

The Pixel 8a boasts a 64 MP wide-angle camera with Quad PD and up to 8x Super Resolution Zoom, along with a 13 MP ultra-wide camera that captures stunning photos. Thanks to Google AI camera features like Best Shot, you can take the perfect group photo, reduce unwanted noise with the Magic Eraser, or easily circle and search for an object in a photo or video with Circle to Search, all without switching between apps.

The Google Pixel 8a features a 6.1-inch Smooth Display with a resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels and a refresh rate of up to 120 Hz. The display is made from scratch-resistant Corning Gorilla Glass 3 and includes an Always-On Display with live notifications and Now Playing. With an IP67 rating and its durable design, a little water and dust are no problem for the Pixel 8a. It feels great in hand thanks to its smooth surface and matte back, and it is partially made from recycled materials.

Best of all, the Google Pixel 8a gets better and more useful over time, as it comes with 7 years of operating system and security updates, along with feature drops every few months. These may include new features for the camera, battery performance, calls, Google AI, and more.

      The Pixel 8a not only scores points with its solid performance, but also with lots of AI functions and a very good camera. The fact that Google promises seven years of support is also extremely commendable. Unfortunately, the memory cannot be expanded. And Google could definitely have improved the charging performance.
