Google Pixel 9a Review: Video Unboxing, First Tests and Photo Samples

Package Contents and Appearance

As always, the Google Pixel 9a comes with the smartphone itself, a USB-C cable, and a SIM card eject pin. The video shows a purple version of the device, but other colors are expected. The smartphone's screen has a diagonal of 6.3 inches, made using AMOLED technology, but it is worth noting that the frames around the display are quite noticeable.

Performance and Benchmarks

The main feature of the Pixel 9a is the Tensor G4 processor, which provides good performance, but during intensive loads the device shows signs of throttling. Despite this, the smartphone is quite suitable for playing popular games like PUBG Mobile, where the performance remains at a decent level.

Cameras

The Google Pixel 9a has two main cameras on the back: a 48MP main sensor and a 13MP ultra-wide lens. On the front, there is a 13MP camera for selfies. Sample photos taken with this smartphone show good quality of photos both in normal and zoomed mode. The cameras cope with most situations, providing clear and rich photos.

Conclusion

The Google Pixel 9a looks like an interesting and balanced smartphone with an affordable price, especially for those looking for good cameras and performance based on the Tensor G4 chip. We expect its official presentation in the coming days and more detailed tests of the device.
