(Pocket-lint): Google’s mid-range Pixel 4a phone, which launched last August, is now available in a new limited-edition color called Barely Blue.
Since it debuted a few months ago, the Pixel 4a has only been available in a basic black colorway. But, as of November 16, 2020, you can get the phone in a sky blue variant for $ 349, the same price as the original black variant. Once all available units are sold out on the Google Store, Barely Blue will be discontinued. The model is also available in the US only at this time, although the color will arrive in Japan before the end of the year.
The Pixel 4a is a scaled-down version of the Pixel 4, Google’s flagship phone of 2019, that seeks to deliver that pure Android software experience and Google’s camera capability at a lower price. But the Pixel 4a is also an update to the Pixel 3a, with the newer device positioned a bit higher thanks to more powerful hardware, putting it in a competitive mid-range position.
It features a single 12.2-megapixel camera on the back, an 8-megapixel front camera, Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 730G chipset, and a headphone jack. It lacks water resistance, a 90Hz display, and wireless charging.
However, we praised the Pixel 4a in our review.
