    1 Made with recycled aluminium, glass and plastic. These recycled materials are at least 23% of product based on weight. 2 Designed to comply with dust and water protection rating IP68 under IEC standard 60529 when each device leaves the factory, but the device is not waterproof or dustproof. The accessories are not water or dust resistant. Water resistance and dust resistance are not permanent conditions and will diminish or be lost over time due to normal wear and tear, device repair, disassembly or damage. Phone is not drop/tumble proof, and dropping your device may result in loss of water/dust resistance. Damage from drops, tumbles and other external forces is not covered under warranty. Liquid damage voids the warranty. See g.co/pixel/water for details. 3 For ‘over 24 hours’: Estimated battery life based on testing using a median Pixel user battery usage profile across a mix of talk, data, standby and use of other features. For ‘up to 100 hours’: Estimated battery life based on testing using a median Pixel user battery usage profile across a mix of talk, data, standby and use of limited other features that are default in Extreme Battery Saver mode (which disables various features including 5G connectivity). For both claims: Battery testing conducted on a major US operator network in California in late 2024 on pre-production hardware and software using default settings, except that, for the ‘up to 100 hours’ claim only, Extreme Battery Saver mode was enabled. Tests began with phones fully charged. Battery life depends upon many factors, and usage of certain features will decrease battery life. Actual battery life may be lower. 4 See g.co/pixel/updates for details on when your Pixel is eligible to receive Pixel Drops. Availability of some Pixel Drops may vary.

    Google Pixel 9a FAQs:

    • What's the difference between the Google Pixel 9a and the Google Pixel 9?

      The Google Pixel 9a and Pixel 9 differ mainly in their RAM, camera resolution, and build quality. The Pixel 9a has 8GB of RAM, a dual rear camera with 48MP wide and 13MP ultrawide lenses, and a plastic back, while the Pixel 9 offers 12GB of RAM, a dual rear camera with 50MP wide and 48MP ultrawide lenses, and a glass back. Both share the same 6.3-inch OLED display and Google Tensor G4 processor, but the Pixel 9 has faster charging capabilities and a more premium build.

    • Is the Google Pixel 9a waterproof?

      The Google Pixel 9a has an IP67 rating, which means it is water and dust-resistant. This rating allows the phone to be submerged in up to 1 meter of water for up to 30 minutes. While it's not fully waterproof, it offers substantial protection against accidental splashes and brief submersion.

    • Does the Google Pixel 9a support wireless charging?

      Yes, the Google Pixel 9a supports wireless charging. This allows you to charge the device wirelessly using compatible chargers.

    • How long will the Google Pixel 9a receive updates?

      The Google Pixel 9a will receive seven years of software updates, including major Android version upgrades and security patches. This ensures the device remains secure and up-to-date with the latest features throughout its support period.

    • Is the Google Pixel 9a a budget phone?

      The Google Pixel 9a is considered a mid-range phone rather than a budget phone. It offers a balance of affordability and premium features, such as the Google Tensor G4 processor, a 6.3-inch OLED display, and a 5100mAh battery21.

    • What are the Google Pixel 9a camera features?

      The Google Pixel 9a boasts impressive camera features, including a 48MP wide-angle main camera and a 13MP ultrawide camera. The main camera offers dual-pixel PDAF and optical image stabilisation (OIS), ensuring sharp and stable photos. The ultrawide camera provides a broader field of view for capturing expansive scenes. Additionally, the front-facing camera is a 13MP sensor with HDR capabilities.

    • What is the Google Pixel 9a battery life?

      The Google Pixel 9a features a 5100mAh battery, which provides impressive battery life. It is designed to last through a full day of typical use, including web browsing, streaming, and other activities. The efficient power management of the Tensor G4 processor also contributes to its longevity.

    • Changes to the 3G network.

      We’re making big changes to our network. Like the UK’s other mobile providers, we’ll be switching off our 3G service later this year. This will help us improve our 4G and 5G network, so more people across the UK can benefit from faster, more reliable connections.

      If you’re joining us, the SIM card that comes with your phone will give you our best 4G and 5G coverage. You can use this SIM in a different phone if you like, but we recommend using a 4G or 5G device for the best connection. Want to know more? Take a look at our helpful guide and FAQs.
