Though the flagship Pixel 7 series is set to launch this month, the Pixel 6A will remain the budget option for those looking for a great Google Pixel deal. Right now, it’s even more affordable ahead of the Pixel 7 launch event with Amazon taking $100 or more off all color variants of this inexpensive 5G Android phone. Now starting at $329 in chalk, charcoal or sage, this phone is at the lowest price we’ve seen since it first hit shelves this summer.
Sporting a 6.1-inch OLED display, Titan M2 chip, Google Tensor processor, Android 12 software, 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, this budget phone certainly delivers a lot of bang for the buck. And the Pixel 6A will be among the first to get the upcoming Android 13 update.
The 12.2-megapixel camera may be a step down from the camera on the Pixel 6. But it’s still a great camera for the price, and it comes equipped with tools including the Magic Eraser, Motion Mode and Portrait Mode.
This phone can last over 24 hours on a single charge, depending on how you use it. The battery is adaptive and learns which apps you use the most, which can save you power by not wasting your battery life on the ones you rarely use. This phone is IP67-rated water- and dust-resistant, so your phone should be safe in most environments and conditions.
Another great feature this phone offers is Live Translate, which will help you translate signs, live video captions and private chats and messages in up to 55 languages. At $349, this is a solid phone worth checking out.
