There is a lot of talk about the Google Pixel 9a even before it is officially launched. A new hands-on video has leaked online, showing us the design and features of the phone. The Pixel 9a is expected to come with a new design, enhanced cameras, and a strong chipset. It should be a great buy for anyone looking for budget-friendly options in the Pixel family. Let’s find the expected price in India and important features of the device.
New Design and Expected Price in India
Google Pixel 9a: A fresh design language is being touted for this phone to be more in sync with the upcoming Pixel 9 series. A hands-on video suggests that the phone will feature a flat frame with slightly squared-off edges, making it appear more premium than the Pixel 7a. The most striking transformation would be the camera module, which shifts from a bar-type design into a pill-shaped configuration. Google places the power button and volume rocker on the right side, as has been its wont.
Price-wise, the Pixel 9a is said to come around Rs 35,000 in India. But the company will have to play with the price depending on the competition in this segment. Like always, it can be expected that there will be some launch offers and discounts that bring this price even lower, given the possibility of the Pixel A series becoming popular.
Specifications and Features
A 6.28-inch OLED Touchscreen display with Full HD+ resolution is an upcoming feature of the next Pixel 9a. This represents an embodiment of bright colors with the deepest possible contrast. Though refresh rate details have now been leaked, one might expect at least a 90Hz one for a smooth user experience.
Rumored to be powered by Google’s in-house Tensor G3 chipset, the phone will feature the same processor as the Pixel 8 series. This should also bring improvements in AI capabilities for better camera processing and overall faster performance. The Pixel 9a would most likely pack in 8GB RAM with 128GB of internal storage to ensure uninterrupted multi-tasking while offering enough room for other apps and photos.
A Dual Camera wherein, the Pixel 9a will have a 48MP Primary and 13MP Ultra-wide camera. The front camera is said to be a 13MP shooter, which is quite impressive. The pixelated video also hints at Google-sophisticated computational image-making capabilities, a great selling point for Pixel Phones.
Battery life seems to be another area where Google has made improvements. The Pixel 9a is supposed to have a 4,500 mAh battery featured with 18W fast charging. Though, the charging speed is not the quickest among the existing market, efficient power management can be achieved through the capability of battery optimization of Google with Android 14.
As with all the information dripping come before launch, this is pretty much how the Google Pixel 9a will emerge as strong competition in the mid-range segment. Watch for the announcement as it came through official doors, and with it, the specifications, price, and availability can be confirmed as well.
