Google Pixel 6A price

The Google Pixel 6A will hit shelves with a retail price of $449 / £399 / AU$ 749 – making it around $150 cheaper than the more premium Google Pixel 6 which launched last year for just shy of $600.

This doesn’t come as much of a surprise as the Google Pixel 5A, the 6A’s predecessor, launched for the same price last year.

It also makes the middle-end of the price spectrum incredibly competitive, especially when considering just how many great phones reside in the $400-$500 spectrum.
