Introduction
Accessible, reasonably priced, and, based on your location, readily available. The A in Google’s A-series gadgets can be interpreted in a variety of ways. The A-series has been the entry point for Pixel phones, launching with the Pixel 3a and offering some of the features that consumers adore about the more costly models at a more reasonable, accessible price. It was also, for a while, the sole Pixel phone available in some areas.

Being the least expensive model in the most recent generation of Pixel smartphones is a tradition that the Pixel 8a carries over. This year, it comes with a speedier CPU, a few extra functions, and a redesigned design that matches the previous two models. Is it still accessible and affordable at $499, or is it more awkward and alienating? Let’s investigate.
