A man looks at the Google Pixel 7 Pro phone at its launch in New York on October 6, 2022. – Once a minor player in the smartphone business, Google confirmed its new ambition to penetrate the highly competitive market.
Google Pixel 6a is Back to its Black Friday Price
The news story by Phone Arena reports that the midrange Pixel 6a now comes at cheaper pricing, back to its rare discount during the massive Black Friday sale.
There is no major sale. But the holiday season is right around the corner. So this massive discount gives online shoppers another chance to cop the Pixel 6a at an interestingly affordable price tag.
It is worth noting that the 6a is the latest budget offering of Google. Given that, while this phone is technically a mid-ranger, it sports some flagship killer specs. From its battery to the processor, this Android phone has what most folks are looking for.
And this time, Amazon is selling at the pricing that we last saw during the Black Friday sale. The discount gives its buyers roughly $150 in savings.
Pixel 6a: Is it Worth Getting?
Sure, it is now more affordable. But is it really worth getting?
According to a recent report by CNET, if you use Google apps like Gmail, Calendar, and Drive, you might as well get the phone that the search engine giant offers.

Besides the Google ecosystem, the Pixel 6a undoubtedly rocks impressive specs for its price range.
At its budget pricing, the Pixel 6a already flaunts a Tensor chip, Phone Arena notes in its report. It is the processor that powers the previous flagship of Google. So it sure provides ample power for a midrange device.
Not to mention that the budget Pixel features a 6.1-inch OLED display. But it is worth noting that it only comes with a standard 60Hz refresh rate, which other budget offerings easily offer.
The midrange phone combines the cameras of the Pixel 6 and Pixel 5.
It features the 12 megapixels (MP) ultrawide camera and 8 MP selfie snapper of the Pixel 6 series. But for its primary shooter, it flaunts the 12 MP sensor of the Pixel 5.
Even though these are older cameras, the Tensor chip helps produce stunning images for this budget device.
If you plan to cling to this phone until it totally breaks, you might just be in luck. Google is supporting it until 2027.
For now, you can buy it on Amazon for only $299, down from its already affordable $499 price.
