The latest handset for Google’s Pixel 7 range is finally here. Announced earlier this month during Google’s I/O event, the Pixel 7a is the latest entry in the brand’s flagship smartphone series, acting as a budget alternative to the Google Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro, which were released in October 2022.
The Google Pixel 7a comes equipped with a 6.1-inch FHD+ OLED display, runs on the Tensor G2 processor (same as the Pixel 7 Pro) and an all-day adaptive battery. It includes two back-mounted cameras, a 64MP wide and 13MP ultrawide, along with a front-facing 13MP selfie camera.
In Gizmodo Australia’s review of the Google Pixel 7a, we were blown away by how good this phone is. We praised its brilliant battery life, camera quality, software experience and graphics – “It can’t be understated that for $750, you basically get a $1,000 phone.”
If you’re looking to make the jump to a Pixel, or you’re looking to upgrade from an older Google smartphone, here’s where you can nab a cheap plan for the Pixel 7a from Telstra and Optus.
