We were going to poll it soon, but Google took a week to decide when Pixel 9A would be available – April 10 is a date for the US, Canada and UK (Thursday next week). The mid-ranger will then expand up to 23 more countries in Europe on 14 April, followed by an Asia-Pacific rollout on 16 April.
First, let’s talk about the price – the base 8/128GB model will match the launch price of previous year’s Pixel 8A (pricing information on the 8/256GB upgrade has not yet appeared). This means $ 500 in the US, € 550 in Europe and € 53,000 in India.

We have a pixel 9A for reviews, so a detailed report is expected soon. Compared to its predecessor, major upgrade new chipset (tensor G4 vs. G3), large 1080p+ 120Hz display (6.3 “vs. 6.1”), are large batteries (5,100mAh vs 4,492mAh), which slightly fast wired charging (23W vs.
The main camera is new and has 48MP 1/2.0 “sensor and f/1.7 aperture, while 2024 Pixel had a 64MP 1/1.73” sensor with f/1.9 aperture. The question of whether the image and video is a commendable change in quality, will have to wait for the review.
We appreciate that Google removed Chunky Wisor and almost made a flush design. It looks good in the combined hand combined with aluminum frames, but thick bezels around the screen make it clear that it is not a premium product.

Anyway, let’s take a quick look at the potential contestants of Pixel 9A. The Galaxy A56 is still not available in the US, but in Europe and India, it is already subject to € 500 and, 50,000. You can be better with the Galaxy S24 Fe, however, the cost of the same.

Nothing is even cheaper than the phone (3A) Pro and while it will not get several OS updates as Pixel and Galaxy models (just three), it has a 50 mp3x periscope, which is rare in this price range.
Nothing Phone (3A) Pro • Apple iPhone 16e
The Apple iPhone 16E also does not have an ultra -wide camera (and let’s not talk about its 60Hz display with a rung), but its cost is also high – $ 600/€ 700/₹ 60,000.
You might also think of other options, we must also be thinking about it because we work on reviews. But let’s talk about the elephant in the room – Google’s own Pixel 9.
Pixel 9A, Pixel 9, 9 Pro and 9 Pro XL
It is currently $ 630, but we have seen it as low as $ 600. Yes, it is $ 100 more than the pixel 9A, but you get more RAM (12 GB vs 8 GB), small display upgrade (HDR 10+, GG Victus 2), a better main camera (50 mp 1/1.31 “sensor) and a small battery with rapid charging (4,700mah) with rapid charging.
Are you considering Google Pixel 9A as your next phone or are you eyeing any other model?
