Google Pixel 8A – A Comprehensive Description
The Google Pixel 8A is the next Google smartphone in line for launch. Following the legacy of the Pixel A-series, the new smartphone will come with toned-down specifications and a more affordable price. This allows users in the mid-range segment to join Google’s ecosystem of Pixel smartphones. It gets the same level of Android support as the regular Pixel flagships and also brings Google’s Tensor Chipset in a slightly underclocked version. The phone will launch soon as more and more details about it keep popping out.
Last year, the Google Pixel 7A brought some interesting upgrades like the user of a Tensor chipset, and wireless charging. The objective was to bring the more affordable A-series close to the flagship Pixel series. For this year, we don’t expect big upgrades, but we are sure that the Pixel 8A won’t go backward in terms of specifications. (Source: AndroidPolice).
