Our pick for the is looking even better right now as the Google Pixel 8a has dropped to a new all-time-low price. You can . That’s 20 percent off the regular price, and it’s even lower than any of the deals we saw for it during Prime Day.
The Pixel 8a has the same Tensor G3 chip as the rest of the Pixel 8 lineup, which means you get access to the same AI features that its higher-end siblings have.

This all comes with one key caveat in that Google is set to . Those are expected to have more fancy features (some of which will come to Pixel 8 devices eventually), a more deeply integrated Gemini AI chatbot, an upgraded chipset and a revamped camera system. If you want the latest Pixel device — which will come with an extra year of software support — it’ll be worth holding off for a couple of weeks. However, if you need a new phone of the Android variety right now, you can’t really go wrong with any of the above options.
