It's now official! Google has just unveiled its new mid-range smartphone: the Pixel 5a ! The latter will be marketed from August 26 at a price of 449 dollars . Would you like to know more about this flagship smartphone of the year? Let's go !
What does Google's new mid-range smartphone look like?
The Pixel 5a takes up most of the qualities of the Pixel 5 while establishing itself as the worthy successor to the Pixel 4a . It will be powered by Android 11 before, a possible migration to Android 12 . You will ask yourself in this case: what's new then, if it's Android 11 again that's coming back?
The Pixel 5a features a Qualcomm Snapdragon 765 G chip and is a little larger than the Pixel 5 , due to its OLED screen which measures 6.34 inches . Regarding the storage capacity of the phone, we keep the 128 GB of ROM memory.
A small change should be noted in terms of RAM. In fact, the cell phone benefits from 6 GB of RAM memory . Normal thing, due to its attractive price ! And like the Pixel 5, Google's new smartphone has a dual back photo module which combines a 12.2 megapixel main sensor and a 16 megapixel secondary sensor.
Furthermore, the Pixel 5a has IP67 certification ! This allows the smartphone to withstand the effects of diving up to one meter deep and offers it total protection against dust.
Google pixel 5a: the smartphone with the best quality/price ratio in 2021?
You would have understood it ! The Pixel 5a has similar characteristics to the Pixel 5. The only dissimilarities that can be noted seem minimal despite the price difference . The pixel 5a has a screen with a frequency of 60 Hz while that of the pixel 5 is 90 Hz .
Another important element to note remains the glass which protects the smartphone. The Pixel 5 is protected by Gorilla Glass 6 while Google's new smartphone has Gorilla Glass 3.
Furthermore, the firm's new mid-range smartphone promises more attractive performance than its predecessor, particularly in terms of battery life. Indeed, Google claims that by activating the ultra battery saver mode, it is possible for the smartphone to last up to 48 hours on a single charge. It is important to remember that the Pixel 5 generally lasts for 16 hours when you use it normally.
To our great regret, the Pixel 5a will not be available in France, because the launch was only reserved for the American and Japanese markets. For the moment, Google has not given any official information on this situation!
However, we believe that the upcoming release of Pixel 6 and 6 Pro would explain why the phone is not available in Europe. Now is the time to be patient!
