But what of Google Pixel 9a price and what makes it standout from the crowd?
Google Pixel 9a price in India may well start at Rs 43,000 for the 128 GB model, and Rs 51,800 for the 256 GB.
2. Google Pixel 9a display
Apart from the price, as far as what makes Google Pixel 9a stand out, then let's start with the screen. Pixel 9a leaks are suggesting it will be a big display at 6.3-inch (OLED). Brightness may hit 2,700-nit mark.
3. Google Pixel 9a camera
Google Pixel 9a camera is likely to be outstanding. Nothing really new about that as Google is fixated on making sure its camera on the Pixels are rated among the best in the world, if not the best. Reports suggest Pixel 9a will pack a 48MP main shooter. But wait, that is not all! This affordable smartphone will also have a 13MP ultrawide sensor.
4. Google Pixel 9a battery
Google Pixel 9a battery? Big camera followed by big battery. It has been suggested that Google Pixel 9a will feature a 5,100 mAh battery. Massive for an "affordable" smartphone. It may well last into the second day.
5. Google Pixel 9a AI
If it is a Google smartphone, can it afford not to have artificial intelligence? Highly unlikely, especially as Google has built Gemini AI in-house. Apart from that, there will likely be various other AI-boosted tools to make users' life easier and more productive.
