Rumors had suggested the upcoming Google Pixel 8a would see a price hike. There’s been some real buzz about the smartphone, which is supposed to debut in May 2024 as a less expensive alternative to the Google Pixel 8. A reliable leaker suggests the base 128GB model of the Pixel 8a might keep the same price tag as its predecessor, though.

Steve Hemmerstoffer, a reliable tipster who goes by the moniker OnLeaks, leaked some details to SmartPrix about the soon-to-be-released device. Among those details, OnLeaks says the 128GB version of the Google Pixel 8a will cost the same as the 7a, $499. So, the rumored price hike for the entry level model isn't happening this cycle. He went on to say Google will also offer a $599 version with 256GB of storage.

Yeah, and it sounds like it might be a halfway decent device. Now, you'll have to pry my iPhone from my cold, dead fingers, but I'm seriously considering this device as a backup.

Glad there's no price hike. I am still rocking my Pixel 7a for a backup and the obvious work I do. Still excited to see how this all shakes out.

I wish I cared... I'm an iPhone guy. Perhaps I should get an Android... but I'm already stuck in the Apple ecosystem...

I mean, I am, too...but there are definitely potential benefits to having both.

I am locked into iPhone as well. But these are nice devices to have for writting articles and testing Windows features since it works so well with new and upcoming Windows features and functionality
