Google unveils Pixel 4a 5G
Google’s cheapest 5G phone is here and is not just a case of the regular Pixel 4a getting additional 5G connectivity.
Google has unveiled a 5G version of its Pixel 4a smartphone. Priced just £499, you can pre-order it now from fave.co/2EODdph. It’s due to be released on 19 November.
FEATURES
Although you might think that the Pixel 4a 5G is simply a version of the regular 4a but with added 5G connectivity, you’d be wrong. And not just slightly wrong, the phone is considerably different.
You could think of it as the Pixel 4a XL or even, in some ways the Pixel 5 XL. That’s because it has a much larger 6.2in display, still OLED with a 60Hz refresh rate for those interested.
Although it looks visually similar (beyond the larger size), the 4a 5G shares some specs with the Pixel 5 starting with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G and also dual rear cameras. They consist of a 12.2Mp main sensor along with a 16Mp ultra-wide secondary shooter. Further
specs include a 3800mAh battery with 18W fast charging, a headphone jack and Android 11.
