- 1Screen has rounded corners. When measured diagonally as a rectangle, the screen is 6.1 inches. Actual viewable area is less. Dimension may vary by configuration and manufacturing process.
- 2Not available for all apps or content.
- 3HDR brightness measured at 100% on-pixel ratio. Peak brightness measured at 5% on-pixel ratio.
- 4Dimensions and weight vary by configuration and manufacturing process.
- 5For 'over 24 hours': Estimated battery life based on testing using a median Pixel user battery usage profile across a mix of talk, data, standby and use of other features. Average battery life during testing was at least 31 hours. For 'Up to 72 hours': Estimated battery life based on testing using a median Pixel user battery usage profile across a mix of talk, data, standby and use of limited other features that are default in Extreme Battery Saver mode (which disables various features including 5G connectivity). For both claims: Battery testing conducted on a major US operator network in California in late 2023 on pre-production hardware and software using default settings, except that, for the 'up to 72 hours' claim only, Extreme Battery Saver mode was enabled. Tests began with phones fully charged. Battery life depends upon many factors and usage of certain features will decrease battery life. Actual battery life may be lower.
- 6Estimate of typical capacity based upon testing and expected cell behaviour.
- 7Up to 18 watts (wired charging). Based upon use of the Google 30 W USB-C® Charger plugged into a wall outlet. Actual results may be slower. Adapters sold separately.
- 8Storage specifications refer to capacity before formatting. Actual formatted capacity will be less.
- 9Restrictions apply. Some data is not transmitted through VPN. Not available in all countries. All other Google One membership benefits sold separately. This VPN offer does not impact the price or benefits of Google One plans. Use of VPN may increase data costs depending on your plan. See g.co/pixel/vpn for details.
- 10Updates for seven years from when the device first became available on the Google Store in the US. See g.co/pixel/updates for details.
- 11Not available for all camera apps or modes.
- 12Maximum resolution and field of view not available for all camera apps or modes.
- 13Requires Google Photos app. Photo feature may not work on all image elements.
- 14Deblurring may not work on all photos or videos with faces.
- 15Requires Google Photos app. May not work on all audio elements.
- 16Feature is operator dependent. Not supported by all operators or in all countries. Contact your operator for details.
- 17Pixel 8a works on most major operator networks. Contact operator for details. Mobile service and band support are operator dependent and not available in all areas. Some bands supported by the device hardware may not be enabled. See g.co/pixel/networkinfo for details.
- 18Requires a 5G data plan (sold separately). 5G service not available on all operator networks or in all areas. Contact operator for details. 5G service, speed and performance depend on many factors, including operator network capabilities and signal strength. Actual results may vary. Some features not available in all areas. Data rates may apply. See g.co/pixel/networkinfo for info.
- 19Designed to comply with dust and water protection rating IP67 under IEC standard 60529 when each device leaves the factory but device is not waterproof or dustproof. The accessories are not water- or dust-resistant. Water and dust resistance are not permanent conditions; they diminish or are lost over time due to normal wear and tear, device repair, disassembly or damage. Dropping your device may result in loss of dust or water resistance. Liquid damage voids the warranty. For more information, see g.co/pixel/water.
- 20Recycled aluminum is at least 18% of product based on weight.
- 21The recycled plastic in the back cover accounts for at least 3% of the product based on product weight.
- 22Based on retail packaging (excluding adhesive materials and required plastic stickers) as delivered by Google. To meet the request of some partners, plastic stickers are applied to some packaging variations.
