Google Pixel 7a and Pixel 8a

Considering the Google Pixel 8a launched recently, many people are wondering if the Pixel 7a is worth buying. Let us compare the specs of the two to get the answer.

The Pixel 7a has a 6.1-inch OLED display with up to 90Hz refresh rate and is powered by Google’s Tensor G2 chipset. The camera setup of the Pixel 7a includes a 64-megapixel main camera and a 13-megapixel ultra-wide sensor. In the front, there is a 13-megapixel camera for selfies.

On the other hand, the Pixel 8a also comes with a 6.1-inch screen and has a 1080 x 2400 resolution. However, Google claims that its Actua display is 40 percent brighter when compared to the Pixel 7a. The Pixel 8a also has a higher refresh rate that goes till 120 Hz. Additionally, the phone is equipped with a more powerful processor, the Google Tensor G3, which is also used in Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro.

In terms of camera, the Pixel 8a retains the specs of Pixel 7a with a 64-megapixel main lens and a 13-megapixel ultra-wide lens at the back and a 13-megapixel camera with a large field-of-view in the front. However, the camera of Pixel 8a has certain AI features like Best Take and Magic Editor.

Moreover, the Pixel 8a comes with an in-built Gemini AI assistant, which allows users to type, talk, and add images for various tasks. The AI assistant is also available for users to help them on the go with tasks such as brainstorming ideas, writing a thank you note, or planning a trip. Both Pixel 7a and 8a have an IP67 dust/water resistant rating and feature Corning Gorilla Glass protection for the screens.

According to the specs, the Pixel 8a is the more advanced smartphone with AI features and better specs. However, its cost is also quite high (Rs 52,999). Hence, if there are price constraints, the Pixel 7a is a pretty decent option since the phone has a powerful camera as well as a decent processor.
