Google Pixel 8A color options and design details
Pixel 8A is said to have a 6.1-inch screen size like the previous model, but it is not yet clear whether the screen will be 90 Hz or 120 Hz. It is stated that the 8A model has thicker frames, especially at the bottom, compared to the Pixel 8 and 8 Pro models. Like these devices, the Pixel 8A will be powered by Google's Tensor G3 chip.
Within Google's Pixel 9 series this year; It is expected to release three different models: Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro and Pixel 9 Pro XL. Each model will have different screen sizes and pricing. Additionally, the model expected to be Pixel Fold 2 is planned to be released in the fall. This suggests that there is not enough room in the product range for the 9A model. Looking at pricing abroad, there is no big price difference between the 7A and the Pixel 8 models, which are constantly on sale.
It is said that the Pixel 8A may be the last model of the A-series Pixel phones, at least for a while. This situation also gives rise to various rumors regarding the continuation of the series.
Google will hold its I/O 2024 launch event on May 14. Despite the abundance of leaks regarding the Pixel 8A, we haven't seen much information about the Pixel Fold 2 yet. This brings to mind that the company may delay Pixel Fold 2 until October to bring the entire high-end series together on the same Tensor G4 processor.
The variety of colors offered by Google with the new Pixel 8A model aims to attract the attention of users, especially with the vibrant green option. This new color option stands out as a much more saturated tone than the “mint” color that was previously added to the Pixel 8 color options.
