Pixel 7a at ₹43, 999 (₹39, 999 after card discount. So, are you in group 1 or group 2? 05:53 😇

[akshay.kumar.]

Well, Group 3 is - People who wait a few months after the launch and get a great deal in terms of pricing! 😅

[RahulGanguly]

I would just wait for the prices to go down a bit of the pixel 7a and if that really happens that would be the ideal scenario to buy it.

I think if someone has to buy a new phone right now they should definitely consider the 7a. But if you can use your current phone till October then this would be a real value for money device around 30-35k during the diwali sale. In either case its a good buy. Kudos to Google.

[Ojas_Sahasrabudhe]

I'm in group 1.5!! I was expecting around 49k as it's 499$ but 44k seems good. I said group 1.5 because I may move to group 1 or 2 depending on it's price during BBD sale. Till then I'm sticking with my 4A!! 😀

The only downside is limited storage. 256 GB version must be an option.
Edit: People crying and telling me that it has unlimited cloud storage then please go ahead and buy it because Google discontinued unlimited free cloud storage in new devices from 2021.
Edit 2: Nothing phone 2 might be a better option. Let's see

[rajeshsubramanian]

I have been using pixel 4a for the past 2.5 years and became a big fan of it. So will upgrade to 7a, not now but probably towards year end.

[ÆßV]

As of now, the discounted Pixel 7 is a better buy but Pixel 7a will go on sale too making it the best all-rounder phone under 40k unless you're into heavy gaming.

[ryanizanami]

What do you think...the price will drop to 35-37K soon within a few weeks?!

[parthgandha]

6a launched for 44k in July 2022 and is now available around 30k.
Better to wait 6 months for the same thing to happen with this.

[mayankjain]

I really wish that Google brings 256GB variant too. I think Pixel devices for the price are solid and great devices.

[RahulGanguly]

Also would like to know a detailed comparison between the pixel 7 and the 7a

[anshul_j]

I'm definitely gonna pay for the User Experience!
I have been using Pixel ROM on Poco F1 for last 2 years and I'm loving it.
I've been a Mi Fan, but now I want something clean like this one, so this is gonna be my first phone that I buy from my salary (probably in BBD sale)

I don't know why tech youtubers are ignoring the Network and WiFi issues in Pixel phones? In Pixel 6 series, it was due to a bad modem. But in 7 series they changed the modem and the issue was still there. Google needs to fix this issue ASAP, because the basic fuctionality of a mobile is to make and receive calls🤦🏻‍♂️. Instead of boasting about the camera and AI, may be these tech youtubers has to give a review about connectivity performance from the phones.

[dgh]

Definitely someone between Gr 1 and 2. It's a solid package, but would have been better if it was at around 40k. But again, that 4k extra is for Google's brand value and product supply, i understand.

[aviralsrivastava]

The 128 gb Pixel 7 is available under 45k. Isn't that a better value?
Personally I think 7a with this storage option is overpriced, it would have been a lot better if offered with 256 gb. Since Pixel 7 256gb is almost 55k, many buyers would have considered 7a with 256gb at 40k Also there are options like S21fe with 256gb at almost 35k.

First video out after Google IO
As expected from Beebom

[christydaniel]

For me, charging speed is a deal breaker

[Randomness]

If the pricing does go down like it usually does after a few months, this will go from being a "good package" to being a no-brainer. The 7a's improvements are just astronomical compared to the 6a. *This* is an upgrade

[HeyJayant]

It is 7.5W Wireless Charging at 5:25 👀 A 120 Hz Display, Fast Charging, 256 GB are much needed though...
