What to Expect from the Pixel 10a
The Pixel 10a, starting at $499, maintains the same price point as the previous generation, the Pixel 9a. While offering modest upgrades, the Pixel 10a builds upon the strengths of its predecessor. The device features a flush camera array on the back, allowing it to lay flat on surfaces. It also boasts improved durability with IP68 water and dust resistance and Corning Gorilla Glass 7i display protection.
Key specifications remain consistent with the Pixel 9a, including the Tensor G4 chip, 8GB of RAM, a 6.3″ OLED display with up to 120Hz refresh rates, and a 5,100mAh battery.
New Features
The Pixel 10a is the first A-series phone to include Bluetooth 6.0 and Satellite SOS support.
