Google Pixel 8A Unboxing! 

$499 - $100 Store Credit - $50 Statement Credit = $349 - $180 Trade-In Pixel 6A = $169. I went for it. I thought about the Pixel 8 when it was $549. The numbers look better with the 8A. I forgot to mention interest free 24 months.

I have an S23 Ultra and want this phone just to carry it around as a backup. It's so cute.

Thanks for the great unboxings Tim! Keep up the great work! 😊

As far as tech reviewers go, you're one of my favs! You have great and dependable videos. Love the work, keep it up❤

Thnx Tim for sharing the quick review,..👍

Is it me or those the pixel 8a look better then both pixel 8 even with thicker bezels? To me looks more trendy

I enjoy ur vids. Keep up the good work!!!

All Pixels have always had power button above volume buttons, and everything is on the right. Since Nexus 5. ☝️🤓

Years ago I owned the Pixel 3a and loved how it performed and how little I got it for at the time. As a promo, I paid $200 new with a $30/month Sprint Kickstarter line at Best Buy. It was such a great bargain at the time but I finally ended up replacing it with my current Pixel 5. I love my Pixel 5 and it is still working great! This Pixel 8a looks like a worthy replacement for my Pixel 5 as it beats it in almost all metrics except unlimited photo storage in Google Photos. 8GB/128GB is my baseline. I'm not sure how I'm going to move on from my Pixel 5 as I take a lot of photos, but I have to seriously start giving it some thought. My Pixel 5 is no longer receiving security and OS updates and this worries me. The 8a will get 7 years of software updates, I need this! This 8a has so much going for it considering it is the "budget" Pixel. I loved my Pixel 3a it offered so much value, I wouldn't think twice about switching back to this A series Pixel. I don't want to spend more, $500 is a tough pill to swallow already. The $100 Google Store credit (I still need a screen protector and case for it, maybe A series earbuds) and Google estimates trading in my Pixel 5 for $120 would make this a decent upgrade if true.

Great video Tim

1:07 Anyone else got tricked by the white protective film wrapping around the back of the phone and thought how nice it would look like if the back was actually two tone?

Love the colors debating on it for sure

❤️Thank you, Tim!❤️

I haven't watched this guy's channel in years😬the last time I saw one of his videos was about the Galaxy Note 8 review, and bought one for myself.

A barrier to the a-series for me is the lack of Motion function on the camera and those bezels......love it overall though. It's so affordable right now. £230 after trading in my Pixel 6, directly with Google. That's insane!

Finally someone unboxes the green color

It's $699 here (Sweden). Getting close to high-end phone prices

Green color is miracle😍😍

wow thats a really nice green

Great video...do you have any info about the release of the keyboard for the Pixel Tablet? Thanks.

Wow, I love this green color

I saw the thumbnail and I mistook the case for a green pixel 6 or something 😂

im a sucker for a green colour phone..will pick it up next year ❤

Nice! Great review.

Hey there Tim I am your biggest fan all the way from GHANA 🇬🇭

I am just glad Tim didn't skip this phone 😅

Love the mint color

Here for Tim Love your contentes

please put it more near to the camera so we can show your fingers better

The borders of the Pixel 8a are less qualitative than on previous models in my opinion. it's more entry-level 🥲

Would the Google Pixel 8a be a basic smartphone within the high-end category?

Reminds me of the old curvy Moto Phones.

Glad phone companies are doing bright colors again.

the pixel 8a has 0.5 wide while the pixel 7 has 0.7 wide camera right?

Nice video tim watching on pixel 4a from India keep it up the good work 😊👍

It's giving iPhone 5c vibes. If it available in my country I'll buy it 🥲 but sadly they didn't sell it here

300 bucks would make more sense. 500 no way

On another note, my 6A is perfect but my new 24 Tacoma has wireless charging. This is the only reason I am upgrading, and the final price made it justifiable.

I have the pixel 7a, for some reason the bezels bother me more on the 8a than the 7a

I hope this means the Pixel 9 goes matte glass back!

Yo that green is dope grass

Nice colour

Is it fast charging?

This colour 🤩🤩

Trae cabeza de cargado o hay que comprarla por separado?

That bezel look like galaxy A series

Is there a possibility that I get it early than the release date

I have to buy this thing 😮

I just pre ordered this phone from Verizon for $549.99 not a bad price at the moment but. I was thinking to wait till the 2024 holiday time frame from Thanksgiving to New years to get this but if you wait till then that would be good. But I just got it for a good deal.

Thank You🤓👍🤝

The color is cool😍. But for a Exynos T3 $499 ??? Google surely cut cost after 2 months atleast $150 for sure

Hiii timtim!

Is the phone heating under 5g usage or while using camera ?

it looks super thick doesn't it?

what a thicc bezel like nokia xr

You said yellow but i see is all green 😂

Me watching in Pixel 7a that I just bought a month ago. 😢

Just ordered bay better be good

For the price it not worthy but the color is damn good.

Those bezels ruins the excitement,rest of specs are always better than previous generation.. Even buy 8A or Pixel 8 Is best ..

Nice video sir, love from India ❤❤❤

y dis unlisted la/:?

So smooth

I cannot fathom why in premium flagships we always get washed out, subdued colors, but these vibrant, pastel and pleasing colors are more often found on midrangers. 🙄

Aloe color looks good

I like the very rounded corner, but the bezel it just to thicc

The bezels are humongous for a 2024 phone. Disgraceful stuff from Google. And this is coming from a pixel fanboi

When is coming. Please tell me.

It looks like they are totally creating the Google pixel since 6 years ago

Why oh why are them bezels so horrifically big.

Can you do a camera test?

This smartphone has only one plus - it's color 😁

me recuerda al 7A con esos marcos

i have an offer to sell off my Pixel 7 to 8a. What do you think about it?

Good job Tim! Wish they sent you the Bay (Blue) color though.

Bhot saari bezels mein thoda sa phone hai😂 English - this phone have a little screen in those huge bezels😂

Nice 💯💯💯

The bezels are terrible.

Come on Google! What's with the bezel and chin? The size is very good though.

Those bezels though.

Why such corporations as google can't make products that match iPhone???

Ip rating??

Bezels are hideous and with the rounded corners make it look like a iPhone XR/11

I ain't buying, waiting for the base Pixel 9 instead cos it's definitely a huge stepover.

6.1 inches 😳

I got rid of my secondary phone..it used to be a pixel 6a..I got an old iPhone XS instead so now I have 2 iPhones!

Is it a toaster then? Battery ? Samsung foundry 😮

I have the Google pixel 7a i rather wait for the 9

Pixel 8 A looks same like the Nokia Lumia 620

With extra $50 you can get Pixel 8, which is more capable than this. Google should rethink their product prices.

I'm buying Infinix Hot 40 pro soon

I really like the colors of the phones. The aloe and bay are my favorite. Phones are getting boring. They all look the same and basically do the same thing. They could at least give us better colors like aloe and bay.

I LOVE PIXEL OS BUT I LOVE SNAPDRAGON CHIPS MORE SO I WILL BUYING PIXEL PHONES WHEN THEY SWITCH TO SNAPDRAGON

The only thing I want to know is if the phone overheats but I bet all these professional reviewers will never answer that question.

Aubowan !

no action pan? thats sucks

"Budget" phone is $500. For a lot of people all over the world that means the salary for a month or two.

BEZELS

ill get a google pixel for longevity when they finally stop to use a samsung heater chip inside and refine bezels(if they arent simmetrical is a no tbh, on that price point i can care about design) . pixel software is great but hardware is little bit trashy.. if you wanna keep it for 7 years it has to have good hardware. not talking about performance but heat, heat = unusuable, bad battery and even worse over time.. imagine that piece of heat after 7 years..

I am still surprised how at this price, pixel is going with such a big bezels all around the entire display, it makes it look ugly like a $50 phone. Phone like nothing 2a at lower price has premium look with thinnest bezels.
