Hold a Google Pixel 10a it’s a bit of a sigh of relief. The design is spotless. They are not here bumpthere are no photographic compartments sticking out, there are no lenses cluttering the surface. Everything is placed inside the main design. This also solves a small problem. When we place the phone on the desk it remains immobile, even when we turn it around the screen towards us. No wobbles, nothing asymmetries.
Pixel 10a is it mid-range smartphone produced by Google. It arrives after the presentation of the Pixel 10, the top of the range models that we tested last September. And it comes a generation after the 9a. Of course, among the criticisms that accompany it there is also that of not have changed much compared to 9a. In fact it is a model upgrade first. It is very interesting for the cost: the list price is 549 euros but there are a few ways to get it for less. Trade-in offers can also lower the price by 420 euros.
Pixel 10a | The technical characteristics
The design is compact. Pixel 10a has an OLED screen from 6.3 inches. The measurements are quite unbalanced on the vertical and this helps ergonomics. The Pixel 10a holds very well in one hand. We used it to watch quite a few videos, especially from YouTube. The definition a 422.2 PPI it is excellent and the brightness peaks at 3,000 nits allows you to see well even in the sun. The smartphone is light: 183 grams. As for the thickness, however, we are about 9 millimeters.

As an operating system, of course, we are talking about a Android. Specifically, this device mounts at launch Android 16. Here Google wanted to work on the stability of the software over time. For each Pixel 10a they are guaranteed 7 years of updatesboth the operating system and security. Excellent resistance. We tried the smartphone without cover: on one occasion we leaned him against a rock to take a group photo. The back seemed a little worn but one pass was enough to remove any marks.
Excellent i battery data. The capacity is 5,100 mAh. Optimized with the rest of the smartphone, it reaches an autonomy of 30 hours. Translated: he can do it easily a day of heavy use arriving without problems even on the second day. For the rest of the hardware nothing to report: the processor is Google Tensor G4the Ram is fixed of 8GB and memory varies from 128 and 256 GB.
Pixel 10a | The photographic sector
Well, usually in mid-range smartphones the compromises are all made on the photographic sector. In fact it is always the most delicate part of the smartphone. Pixel 10a has a system based on three cameras. There are two lenses on the back of the device: one wide angle camera from 48MP and an ultra-wide-angle camera from 13 MP. With these cameras an ad zoom is guaranteed high definition up to 8x. The compartment is completed by a front camera 13 MP. To verify the quality of the photos we chose to test the smartphone at night, in Milan. It’s a dark environment, with different artificial lights and a lot of noise: cameras usually make it here very difficult to move. We’ll let you judge results.
