Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days event has already brought us loads of discounts on great products, including on our favorite Android phone. Now, we’re getting another great deal for the value-oriented shopper in the form of a 20% discount on the best budget smartphone, the Google Pixel 7a.
The Pixel 7a is a smart and stylish phone that offers excellent value at $499, so it’s only better at $399.
The Pixel 7a is a slightly, and we mean slightly, down-specced version of the Google Pixel 7. It’s a little smaller, a little lighter and a little less durable, but not by much. It opts for a 6.1-inch screen, but it’s still a high-resolution OLED display that’s great for watching content. A 90Hz refresh rate also makes scrolling feel that much smoother. The phone even comes with the same base storage and memory.
What’s critical is that the Pixel 7a offers the same Tensor G2 chip found in the flagship Pixel 7. This means it has plenty of performance for everyday operations and for Google’s AI-powered smarts, like fast voice typing and live captions or special camera features. Essentially, you’re getting flagship internals while saving one price by going for a lower-end exterior. And for $499, you couldn’t ask for a better smartphone camera, never mind at this discounted price of $399.
