According to the site 9to5Google, Google’s upcoming Pixel 7A will cost $499, which would be $50 more expensive than its predecessor, the Pixel 6A.
However, the phone is said to receive a bunch of upgrades such as wireless charging, a new 64 MP camera, a 90 Hz display, and the latest Tensor G2 chip.
This increase likely comes from the new design and improvements. Google is upgrading the main camera to a 64MP main sensor flanked by a 13MP ultrawide shooter. This is outside of the Tensor G2 SoC found in the Pixel 7 and 7 Pro, the new 90hz display, and the long-awaited addition of wireless charging. These improvements are likely coming at a cost, which, unfortunately, is resulting in a higher price to consumers.

The new phone is expected to be released on May 10th during Google’s big I/O presentation, according to 9to5Google.
