The Pixel 7a is the mid-range Pixel of 2023, released on May 10, 2023 at $499 in the US. It adds a faster chip, a 90Hz display and wireless charging over the Pixel 6a. It suits buyers who want Pixel software and the Tensor G2 without paying for the Pixel 7.
The phone uses the Google Tensor G2 (5 nm) with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, plus the Titan M2 security chip. SpecHub has not benchmarked the phone.
The 6.1-inch OLED display has 1080 x 2400 pixels and a refresh rate of up to 90Hz, which is higher than the 60Hz screen of the Pixel 6a.
The Pixel 7a has a dual rear camera with a main and an ultrawide lens. Resolution, aperture and front-camera details are omitted because we could not verify them for this page. SpecHub has not tested image quality.
The battery is 4385 mAh with fast wired charging and Qi wireless charging. Wattage figures are not listed because they could not be verified. We have no endurance tests.
The phone launched with Android 13. It supports 2D face unlock and a fingerprint sensor, and is rated IP67.
Buyers who want a compact Pixel with wireless charging, a smoother screen and Tensor G2 performance at a mid-range price will find it a good fit.
People who want IP68 resistance, a bigger battery or a telephoto lens should look at the Pixel 7 Pro. Those who want the lowest price may prefer the Pixel 6a.
The Pixel 7a offers a strong chip, wireless charging and a faster display in a compact body. Its modest battery and single storage option are its main limits.
