Discover the price of the new Google Pixel 9a
The Google Pixel 9a is coming soon. We shared news back in October that Google plans to launch the Pixel 9a in the middle of March, which is just around the corner since February starts this Saturday.
We’ve got the scoop on the prices for both the US and Canada. In the US, the Google Pixel 9a with 128GB of storage will cost $499, while the 256GB version will be $599. That’s the same starting price as the last model, the Pixel 8a, but the bigger storage option is $40 pricier. This matches the pricing strategy Google used with the Pixel 9 series last August, where the 256GB version was $100 more than the 128GB.
In Canada, due to the lower value of the Canadian dollar, prices are slightly different. You’ll pay $679 for the 128GB model and $809 for the 256GB.
Pixel 9a Features
We’ve already given you the full rundown on what the Pixel 9a will offer. It’s got a huge 5,100mAh battery, which is the biggest Google has ever put in a Pixel phone. The phone will still be compact with a 6.285-inch screen. This screen, called an Actua Display, can get very bright, up to 2,700 nits for regular viewing and 1,800 nits for HDR content. Inside, you’ll find the Tensor G4 chip, 8GB of RAM, and storage options of either 128GB or 256GB.
Camera-wise, Google is making a switch. Instead of the 64-megapixel camera from before, the Pixel 9a will have a 48-megapixel Quad Dual Pixel Camera. Even though it has fewer megapixels, it’s actually an improvement because of the larger sensor. There’s also a 13-megapixel ultrawide camera, but no telephoto lens this time.
Look out for the Pixel 9a to hit the shelves in mid-March, starting at $499.
