Google has officially unveiled the Pixel 10a after many teasers. This comes ahead of the expected launch of the iPhone 16e on March 4, which is widely considered as the competitor of the Pixel a-series. However, interestingly enough, the Pixel 10a will officially hit the shelves on March 5.
Pixel 10a
The Pixel 10a is built around a 6.3-inch FHD+ 120Hz Actua display with a 13MP housed in a punch hole on the top center. Additionally, the display is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 7i.
Around the back, it features a 48MP main camera and a 13MP ultrawide lens with the same flush camera module as the Pixel 9a.
The 10a is powered by the Tensor G4 coupled with 8GB RAM and up to 256GB storage. It draws power from a 5100mAh battery with support for 45W wired charging.
As the latest Pixel device, it runs on Android 16 out of the box and gives total access to Gemini. It allows natural, back-and-forth conversations. Additionally, you can play with Nano Banana to reimagine your photos.
Other AI features include Circle to Search, Call Screen, and Hold For Me. Additionally, it is IP68 rated for water and dust resistance.

Ram found his love and appreciation for writing in 2015 having started in the gaming and esports sphere for GG Network. He would then transition to focus more on the world of tech which has also began his journey into learning more about this world. That said though, he still has the mentality of "as long as it works" for his personal gadgets.
