So, the Google Pixel 8a costs $500, huh? Looking at the poll from last week, most people think that this is too expensive for a mid-ranger. And indeed it is, considering that the flagship Pixel 8 has been quite close to this price many times in the past.
For example, Amazon is offering a $100 gift card with the purchase of a Google Pixel 8a. This can be spend on a case, a charger, headphones or anything else you might need (we will look at headphones in a moment). And remember, this year there is a 256GB option for those who find it hard to fit in 128GB.
But don’t rush to buy the Pixel just yet. The Samsung Galaxy A35 is $40 less than it was last week, making it cheaper than the Pixel 8a, even if we subtract the gift card from its price. The Pixel will get longer software support (7 years, vs. 4 OS updates and 5 years of patches for the Galaxy).
