Here’s how the Pixel 9A compares with competition
After a mountain of leaks, Google finally has announced Pixel 9AS There is a great chance to click this article to find out how 9A compares with it predecessorS The good news is that you have reached the right place. Even better, this is a favorable comparison.
Pixel 9A vs Pixel 8a
For starters, the Pixel 9A has a new design. Instead of taking up the design language of the more expensive Google devices, the new phone has its own identity. Gone is the camera dividing tape that has defined recent Pixel phones. Instead, the main module of the camera is almost flushed from the back of the phone. In addition, the new handset offers a little better protection from the entrance. It is certified for IP68 against water and dust, up from IP67 to 8A. The Pixel 9A will also be available two wonderful new colors: iris and peony. Unfortunately, Google will not offer aloe color this time, at least it is not released.
Outside of these changes, the 9a has a larger 6.3 display. As with 8A, Google has gone with the FHD panel, which means that the 9A screen is a little less dense as it is generally a little more big. However, this is the better display. The 9A Poled panel is capable of reaching peak brightness of 2,700 nits, compared to 2000 nits to 8A. It is also HDR10+ certified, at 120Hz refreshing. This extra brightness will make it easier to see the 9A screen in bright sunlight.
Internally, the 9A has Google’s most native Tensor G4 SOC, re -paired with 8GB RAM. Google also equipped 9A with a larger 5100mAh battery, compared to 4.492mAh to 8A. It is equally important that 9A is capable of charging at faster 23W. This is still slow compared to a device like nothing 3A Pro, which is compatible with 50W power adapters, but an improvement over the glacial 18W of 8A. Oh, and if you were hoping for QI2 MaintenanceI’m sorry to say that 9A is limited to charging at 7.5W wireless.
As for the cameras, Google has not changed its winning formula. 9A has a 48MP main camera with f/1.7 lens and optical image stabilization (OIS). On paper, this may seem like a decrease from the main 8A 64MP sensor, but they both have a 0.8 µm pixel step, which means they are capable of capturing the same amount of light and it seems that Google has received a 9A 9A sensor. Otherwise, it seems that the Pixel 9A has the same ultravid and selfie cameras as its predecessor. As always, when you buy a Pixel phone, you buy it for Google’s computational photography features and get all the usual honors such as Night Sight, Best Take and more.
Pixel 9A vs the iPhone 16E and nothing 3A Pro
Thehe iPhone 16E He continues to be confused after his message in February. At $ 599, it is full $ 100 more expensive than the Pixel 9A and comparing the two based on the hardware only, the new Google Midrange phone is a better deal. You get a significantly larger battery, a 120Hz display and an entire additional camera. Of course, whether you have to buy 9A over 16E will depend entirely on your Android preferences over iOS. If you like Apple software, the Pixel 9A will not do it for you.
The more interesting comparison is between 9A and nothing new Phone 3A ProS For $ 40, you get even a bigger screen, a more original design and the most PERISCOPE camera, which offers a 3x optical increase. A great phone is really hard to find in this price range, so the 3A Pro can only be considered for this reason. The compromise is Google software support is incomparable, and 3A Pro comes with a limited warranty in the United States.
