This phone will have a lower price than the flagship Pixel 8 series and will be equipped with a weaker version of the Tensor G3 processor.

The previous model of this phone, the Pixel 7a, was released at a price of $499, and it is not yet clear whether Google will maintain the same price in the new model.

The Pixel 8a’s corners are more curved than its predecessor, the Pixel 7a. The previous phone had a rectangular shape with sharper corners. According to previous reports, the Pixel 8a will likely have a 6.1-inch screen. Its dimensions are likely to be slightly longer and narrower than the Pixel 7a.
