Phones half of that price have better protection

    It would it make it look better and somewhat like midrange

            This is far worse deal than iphone 16e.
            If you slap SD 8g2 inside Motorola G85, it would become years better than this.



              Thick bezels (even symmetrical) and weak soc (G4) make this phone deal breaker. And the rumored Tensor G5 will give massive bump in performance and efficiency made from TSMC unlike G4 made from Samsung

                Looks like a toy phone, they should of moved the camera to the up and to the left, then made it vertical. looks like its off balance.

                  This year the 'A' series Pixel is more irrelevant than ever. Pixel 8 can be found at around $500 (or even lower) in various markets, and is a much better device overall than 9a.

                      Anonymous, 21 hours agoIt's great in the US market though, which is obviously... moreSamsung was not the issue for tensor it was google. Compare exynos 2400 vs tensor G4. Google suck at designing chips and TSMC won't fix that.

                                        These awful huge bezels are a ridiculously stupid cost cutting measure. It looks like something from 2018 and also unnecessarily not compact as a result. A pass from me. Shame.
