The device features a 6.3-inch OLED screen that\u2019s brighter than its predecessor, handling direct sunlight with no problem. The IP68 rating is another upgrade, so you don\u2019t have to panic over a spilled drink or a dusty pocket. Wireless charging is also available, and while it\u2019s not the fastest at up to 7.5W, it\u2019s a feature you don\u2019t always see at this price.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">The Tensor G4 chip and 8GB of RAM keep things snappy, whether you\u2019re running a handful of apps or sneaking in a little gaming. Meanwhile, the 5,100mAh battery can last you through a moderate day of streaming video, social media, and web browsing with the always-on display enabled. Google also promises seven years of software updates, which is more than most phones in this range.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">While the 9A ticks just about every box, it runs a <a href=\"https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/ai\/2025\/03\/meager-8gb-of-ram-forces-pixel-9a-to-run-extra-extra-small-gemini-ai\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">smaller version of Google\u2019s on-device AI<\/a>, so you miss out features found on the other Pixel 9 devices, including call notes. And although it takes decent photos, the device can\u2019t match the quality of the more expensive Pixel 9 and 9 Pro, particularly when taking portraits. Google has an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/news\/708363\/google-pixel-10-made-by-google-event-date\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">event planned for August 20th<\/a>, where we\u2019re expecting new flagship Pixel devices to be shown off. If you don\u2019t need a top-of-the-line device, though, you\u2019ll probably be very happy with the 9A, especially at this price.<\/p>\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-none\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/phone-review\/646135\/google-pixel-9a-review-a-midrange-phone-done-right\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read our Google Pixel 9a review<\/a>.<\/h5>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The discount is available for all the colors, including the vibrant pink \u201cpeony.\u201d The Google Pixel 9A is a midrange [&hellip;]<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-875","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-non-classe"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.actutech.app\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/875","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.actutech.app\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.actutech.app\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.actutech.app\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.actutech.app\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=875"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/www.actutech.app\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/875\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.actutech.app\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=875"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.actutech.app\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=875"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.actutech.app\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=875"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
