Google’s I/O conference did not mention anything about Pixel 8 but they released the Pixel 7A. It is a less expensive version of the Pixel 7. We have a retail unit in the home to join our review queue now that the Google Pixel 7a is on sale. This will primarily serve as a brief unboxing before we begin the 7a’s thorough review because we already touched Google’s most recent midrange device. In some nations, including France and Germany, Google includes a 30W charger with the Pixel 7a.
Pixel 7A Will Have A Better Battery Life
You may receive the Pixel Buds A-Series for free or the $219 Pixel Buds Pro for €110 if you buy the phone by May 22. The Pixel 7a comes in the color Sea, but there are additional variations in flamboyant Coral and more somber Black and White. From the front, this looks like a traditional Pixel phone with large bezels surrounding the screen and a very small curve, identical to the Pixel 7.
It is a comparable 1080p display with a 90Hz refresh rate in all other respects. The display is attractive and vibrant.
The design of the Pixel 7 is more robust than the Pixel 7A. The former has a larger screen and a larger battery. The latter feature essentially transforms the phone into a wireless power source by allowing you to charge compatible devices by placing them on the rear of the phone.
The plastic rear plate on the Pixel 7a is one of the main distinctions between it and the Pixel 7. There is not much of a difference in the way it looks, feels, or weighs. However, it will likely scratch more easily.
Also a little different are the lenses. Although the Pixel 7 has larger sensors on each and somewhat wider apertures, the broad and ultrawide arrangement remains.
