Google Pixel 8a receives Rs 18,000 discount on Flipkart; Should you buy it or wait for Pixel 9a

Pixel 8a

Google Pixel 8a has received its biggest price cut on Flipkart since its launch. The discount comes just weeks ahead of the expected launch of the Pixel 9a. Originally launched at Rs 52,999, the smartphone is now available at 28% price drop during the ongoing Big Saving Days sale. Additional bank and exchange offers bring the price below Rs. 35,000, which is the lowest price we’ve seen so far.

The phone has received a 28% discount on Flipkart, which translates to Rs 15,000 and brings down the price to Rs 37,999.

In addition to this, buyers can avail themselves of bank discounts and exchange deals to further lower the cost. Flipkart is offering Rs. 3,000 off on HDFC Bank Credit Card EMI transaction.

This brings the price down to Rs 35,000, and that’s one of the best deals so far.

Rs 35,000 is still a mid-range price bracket, and there are tons of options available in the market. For instance, you can get the all-new Galaxy A36 5G smartphone or go with Vivo V50, which offers a comprehensive set of features with an Android 15 operating system and good battery life.

When it comes to Pixel 8a, the phone offers good features, a clean user interface and good battery life as well. So, if you are a fan of the stock Android experience and want a good camera, then Pixel 8a makes sense at this price.

Coming to the Pixel 9a launch, it is expected to launch at a relatively higher price tag, which will make it more expensive compared to the discounted Pixel 8a.

The Google Pixel 8a features a 6.1-inch OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and a peak brightness of 2000 nits. It is powered by the Google Tensor G3 chip with 8GB RAM and 128GB storage. The smartphone runs Android and is eligible for seven major Android updates.
