And once again, the Pixel 5a still has a 3.5mm jack for wired audio (but no microSD card slot). You get a beautiful 2400 x 1080 OLED display, stereo speakers, a punch-hole selfie shooter, two rear cameras, USB-C port, and a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor - basically all the standard features you’d expect on a modern smartphone.

Like previous Pixel A-series phones, the Pixel 5a couldn’t be any simpler. And better yet, with a price tag of $US450 ($614), the Pixel 5a might be Google’s best value ever.Įditor’s Note: Stay tuned for local Australian pricing and availability. And when you combine all of Google’s Pixel-only software features with an even bigger screen, improved durability, and new support for water resistance on the new Pixel 5a, it really feels like Google - not Motorola or OnePlus - is the new king of mid-range handsets. Ever since Google got into the mid-range phone game with the Pixel 3a, Google’s most affordable handsets have just been getting better and better.
