The Pixel 4A 5G

A lesser prized version of the 4A, this mid-range device features a 6.2-inch OLED screen as compared to the 4A’s 5.8-inch OLED. It shares the same Snapdragon 765G processor found in the Pixel 5, but is not waterproof and does not sport the same kind of high-end display. The 5G ready model costs $499 and will be available in black or white, November onwards.
