Pixel 9a is coming soon. Powered by the fastest, most efficient chip yet, Google Tensor G4, Pixel 9a comes with everything you expect from our Pixel 9 series — complete with a sleek redesign, upgraded main camera and Gemini built in. At just $499, Pixel 9a brings value, helpfulness and AI smarts that are hard to beat.
A brand new look
Pixel 9a has a fresh look, featuring a sleek, flat profile, rounded edges and an upgraded 6.3-inch Actua display.1 That’s the brightest display on an A-series ever — 35% brighter than Pixel 8a at 2700 nits — and a 120 Hz adaptive refresh rate for a smoother, more vibrant experience.
It comes in two fun colorways: Peony and brand new Iris. It’s also available in Porcelain and Obsidian.
A best-in-class camera
Pixel 9a has the best camera under $5002 so you can shoot stunning photos and videos. Its upgraded dual rear camera system has both a 13MP ultrawide camera and a 48MP main camera. And with Macro Focus on an A-series for the first time, you can capture all the details.
Pixel 9a is also equipped with AI-powered photography features, like:
- Add Me, launched with our Pixel 9 series, is also on A-series for the first time. This feature combines two group photos into one, so everyone makes it into the photo — even the photographer.
- Best Take lets you create the perfect group photo by seamlessly blending facial expressions from a series of photos into one.
- Magic Editor with Auto Frame can automatically reframe your photo, new or old. It suggests the best crop and even expands your image to get more of the scene. You can also Reimagine photos in Magic Editor, like adding fall leaves or green grass. Tap what you want to change in the photo and type what you want to see.
- Pixel 9a also has Magic Eraser, Audio Magic Eraser, Night Sight, Astrophotography and the new Panorama with Night Sight.
Features to keep you connected
Pixel 9a is a great first phone for your kids. For starters, Pixel 9a’s onboarding process makes it easier for parents and guardians to set up a new phone for kids. Google Family Link allows you to manage your child’s account and devices with features like screen time controls, app usage insights, app download approvals, privacy settings and location sharing.
School Time helps reduce distractions by limiting phone functionality and silencing notifications during school hours. Parents will soon be able to easily adjust time intervals and breaks to fit their children’s schedules — they can also choose the apps that are silenced and restricted.
And Google Wallet for kids begins rolling out on Pixel 9a in the U.S., U.K., Australia, Spain and Poland today. This allows kids to make safer, more convenient payments in stores with Google Pay and add supported passes — like movie tickets, library cards and loyalty cards — to their Wallet. Parents can add or remove payment cards to their child’s Wallet, track recent purchases and turn off access to passes in Family Link.
