Pixel 7a specs leak: 90Hz display, 64MP main cam, wireless charging

02 May 2023
All three are firsts for the Pixel a-series and bring the 7a quite close to the feature set of the Pixel 7.

I, for one, haven't seen lcd phone displays to be brighter than oled ones. Also, please correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think lcds have variable refresh rate (1-120 or anything like that besides the 60/90/120) like the newer oleds (I may be wrong about this)

    In 2018, Sony had panel at CES with 10.000 nits

    Oled uses less energy than LCD only for blacks.
    Twice for whites and same amount for all other.

Even this 6a and 7a are both 6.1 inch screen size and at around 152mm tall is still a lot better then all the standard phones that are all over 160mm tall.

      Zenfone is also more compact but it also cost same as these iphones and s class on samsung.

      ´And then are the flip phones that are compact when folded. Thats about it for compact phones as there are none in middle and budget class. Actually you maybe find some chinese brands that are compact or some mini phones from aliexpress that cost like 100 euro and are with hardware like helio A22 or something like that

              I read somewhere that they are going to axe the pixel a series and 7a will be the last one in the series. Since now it is getting very close to vanilla 7 with these upgrades, it makes sense.

                Stoon, 02 May 2023i still hope google make their phones available worldwideThey won’t and this will be their downfall.

                You can’t expect much from them. They’ve been the same sketchy stuff since the nexus days and nothing has changed. In fact, nexus phones had less issues and were more available.

                  The 6.1 has more bezels than the 7, so it is not as compact as you think it it is

                          $500 for all the upgrades does excite me, but you can get the 7 for a similar price. If you're lucky, you can get the 7 Pro. It's not an easy decision to make.

                              If they did, they'll ask an unfair premium, just like they ask for Samsungs in our country
