Google has debuted the Pixel 7a, a mid-range smartphone that borrows some features from the Pixel 7 flagship. For CAD 599, you get a capable smartphone camera setup, one of the more notable changes from its predecessor. It has a 64-megapixel main camera and a 13-megapixel ultrawide camera with a 120-degree field of view. It can do super-res zoom (a first for the Pixel A series), Night Sight, Photo Unblur, and Long Exposure (another Pixel A first). There's also a 13-megapixel selfie camera in front.

The Pixel 7a also has a 6.1-inch OLED screen with a 90Hz refresh rate and adaptive brightness. It runs on Google’s Tensor G2 chip, which delivers fast performance and AI features. It supports Pixel software features like Clear Calling, Direct My Call, and voice message transcription.

Google Pixel 7a tipped to get a coral version

Image: Evan Blass

Aside from the rumoured Google Pixel Fold, the Google Pixel 7a is expected to debut at Google I/O 2023. And with it, a new colour option will be available: a coral shade. It's reminiscent of the Oh So Orange colourway for the Pixel 4 and the Pixel 6's Kinda Coral. Evan Blass has also shared this render with the orange shade dominating the back of the phone. Its camera bar gets a slightly lighter shade to distinguish it from the rest of the body.

If the leaks are accurate, this would be the first time Google offers the Pixel in four color options: white, black/grey, sky blue, and coral. Reports say the coral variant will be exclusively available at the Google Store.

Report: Google Pixel 7a price leaked ahead of May launch

Google is reportedly planning an earlier release for the Pixel 7a. The company supposedly plans to introduce the device at Google I/O 2023 on May 10. 9to5Google reports the smartphone will retail for USD 499 (around CAD 667), a USD 50 (~CAD 67) increase over last year's model

The price increase might be due to new improvements coming to the phone. It'll supposedly feature an upgraded 64-megapixel main camera joined by a 13-megapixel ultrawide sensor. It'll also reportedly sport the Tensor G2 chip found on the Pixel 7 and 7 Pro, a new 90Hz screen, and wireless charging support.
