Google’s AI-based photography features like Magic Eraser, Best Take, and Real Tone are included. Details remain sharp even in low light, and colors stay natural.
Battery and Charging: All-Day Power
The Pixel 10a features a 5100mAh non-removable battery, which is sufficient for a full day of use. It supports 23W fast charging, although wireless charging is not confirmed. Power management is efficient thanks to the Tensor chip, and the battery life will be impressive despite the 120Hz display. You can expect 6-7 hours of screen time even with heavy use. If you’re a traveler, this phone will be reliable.
Price and Availability: An Affordable Choice
In India, the Pixel 10a is expected to be priced at Rs 49,999 for the 128GB variant and Rs 59,999 for the 256GB variant. In the US, it’s priced at $499 (approximately Rs 44,000). Pre-orders start on February 18th, and the sale date will be announced soon. It will be available on the Google Store, Flipkart, and offline stores. This is the affordable version of the Pixel 10 series, offering flagship features.
Google has also revealed the design of the Google Pixel 10a. This smartphone will feature a dual rear camera setup, horizontally placed on the back panel. The phone’s rear design is flat and does not have any camera bump. In an era where phones come with large and bulky camera modules, the Pixel 10a’s back design truly gives it a sober and premium look. The volume and power buttons are located on the right frame of this smartphone.
Regarding the price, its European price was recently leaked. The leak suggested that the Pixel 10a will be launched in two memory variants. The 128GB storage variant was priced at €500 euros, which is approximately ₹52,499 in Indian currency.

It is worth noting that the price of the Pixel 10a in India may be lower than in Europe. According to leaks, the Google Pixel 10a could be launched with a 6.28-inch Full HD+ screen. This is said to be an AMOLED display with support for a 120Hz refresh rate.
For power backup, the Google Pixel 10a is rumored to have a 5100mAh battery. This is larger than the 4,970mAh battery found in the Pixel 10 smartphone! The phone’s charging technology hasn’t been revealed yet, but it could be 30W. Additionally, 15W wireless charging might also be available on the Pixel 10a.
For photography, the Pixel 10a 5G phone will feature a dual rear camera setup.
