Say hello to the Pixel 8a, engineered by Google. With a battery life of over a day, an impressive security system, and three advanced cameras, it’s got everything you could want from a high-power phone. Google has included over 15 camera features so you can capture every memorable moment with ease and made it scratch, dust, water and fingerprint resistant so your phone can stay looking sleek for longer.
Impressive display
Pixel 8a’s 6.1-inch high-resolution display delivers sharp, vivid colours and rich detail. It has a refresh rate of up to 120Hz for smoother gaming, scrolling and switching between compatible apps. You’ll see the screen clearly, even in direct sunlight, thanks to a high peak brightness of 2,000 nits.
The power behind Google AI on Pixel
Google Tensor G3 is Pixel’s most powerful chip yet. It’s custom-designed with Google AI for cutting-edge photo and video features and smarter ways to help throughout the day (compared to earlier Pixel phones). And it makes Pixel 8a super fast and efficient.
Pixel helps keep you safe
Pixel’s Personal Safety app keeps your safety a top priority with features like Car Crash Detection, Crisis Alerts, and other safety features.
Quality photos, with extra features
The Pixel 8a has three cameras with advanced image processing that reveals vivid colours and striking details in any light. The 64 MP wide rear camera is fitted with Super Res zoom that magnifies by up to 8 times, perfect for bringing far away objects to life. And there are 19 camera features to experiment with, from Real Tone and Portrait Mode for high-quality selfies that really look like you, or Ultra HDR and Long Exposure for the more experimental photographers.
Incredible videos, on every take
The Pixel 8a camera records smooth videos and clear audio, even in crowded, dimly lit places. Both the front and the rear cameras capture video up to 4K resolution, for quality results every time. You can even add cinematic effects with a few taps (requires Google Photos app).
Scratches and spills are no big deal
With its durable design and IP67 protection, Pixel 8a can handle slips, spills, dust and even fingerprints. And it's scratch-resistant, with Corning Gorilla Glass 3.
Unlock your phone quickly
With Face Unlock, just glance at your Pixel to unlock it quickly. Or tap to unlock with Fingerprint Unlock.
Dependable all-day battery
Pixel's Adaptive Battery can last over 24 hours. Turn on Extreme Battery Saver, and the battery can last up to 72 hours. Your Pixel charges super fast and is compatible with wireless chargers.
5G capability
Say bye-bye to buffering. The super-fast 5G-ready connection zips through downloads at a record pace. Stream, browse, and watch whatever you want, wherever you want. Waiting forever for your Instagram feed to load up will be a distant memory.
SIM free
This mobile phone comes SIM-free and unlocked. You’ll have access to SIM-only deals, so there’s no requirement to commit to any network. These usually offer far better value for money – especially for all-important data plans.
