Google’s much-awaited Pixel 9a is expected to make its debut earlier than expected, with a possible launch in March 2025. This is a significant change from the usual May launch window for Google’s A-series phones. Leaks indicate that the Pixel 9a will bring a mix of premium features and powerful hardware. Let’s take a look at what we know so far about the Pixel 9a.

Google Pixel 9a launch timeline and availability (Expected)

Google is reportedly planning to open pre-orders for the Pixel 9a on March 19, 2025. Shipping and availability in stores could begin as soon as March 26, marking a shift from the usual Google I/O event in May.

Google Pixel 9a price (Expected)

In the US, leaks suggest the Pixel 9a will start at $499 (roughly Rs 42,000) for the 128GB storage variant. There could be a 256GB model as well, priced slightly higher. If Google follows its traditional pricing strategy in India, we can expect the Pixel 9a to be competitively priced, making it a strong contender against the rumoured iPhone SE 4, which is expected to launch in April.

Google Pixel 9a design and display (Expected)

The Pixel 9a is expected to come with a 6.28-inch display with a peak brightness of 2,700 nits and HDR brightness of 1,800 nits. The display will likely be protected by Gorilla Glass 3 for durability. As for the design, it is expected to feature a compact form factor, with the familiar A-series design that includes a dual-camera setup on the back.
