Meet Google Pixel 10a: more of what you need, priced just right.

With helpful Google AI,1 brilliant photography, and 30+ hours of battery life,2 Google Pixel 10a delivers great performance at a price that makes sense.

The newest member of the Pixel family, Pixel 10a is more than you’d expect, for less.

It comes with brilliant photography, a durable design, and built-in helpful AI that keeps getting better. And, with a 30-hour battery2 and seven years of software updates,5 Pixel 10a is built to go the distance – today and for years to come.

Make every photo a keeper with help from Google AI

With Pixel 10a, you don’t need to be an expert to take great photos. 

  • Crisp details. The 48 MP main camera and 13 MP ultrawide lens capture vibrant colors and sharp details, so your memories look just how you remember them.3

  • Help in real time. For the first time on an A-Series phone, you’ll get help from Camera Coach to level up your photography. It reads the scene and offers suggestions so you snap beautiful photos with ease.4

  • Everyone looks their best. Auto Best Take automatically combines multiple frames from one shutter press into a single image where no one is blinking.

  • Include the photographer. With Add Me, you can finally get the photographer into the group shot without asking a stranger for help.

  • Editing made easy. With just a few taps in Google Photos, you can remove objects, change backgrounds, and more, right from Photos – no editing skills required. 

All of this is powered by the Tensor G4 chip, which does the heavy lifting for you.

Reliability for the long haul 

Pixel 10a is engineered to handle the rigors of daily life, with a sturdy build and a battery you can count on. Plus, it has seven years of OS and security updates from its launch date, so it’s meant to last.5

  • A durable design that’s easy to maintain. Made to survive daily drops and spills, Pixel 10a features Corning® Gorilla® Glass 7i cover glass on the display and an IP68 water and dust resistance rating.6

  • Power that covers your fullest days. The 5,100 mAh battery provides more than 30 hours of power on a standard charge. When you need even more power, Extreme Battery Saver can extend the charge to 120 hours.2

A slim profile in colors to fit your style

We’ve moved past the bump to a streamlined design that just works. Pixel 10a features a completely flat profile, so it slides easily into your pocket and won’t wobble on a table. It’s a clean look available in four distinctive shades: Lavender, Berry, Fog, and Obsidian.

The display is easier than ever to see even in direct midday sun, thanks to the 3,000 nit Actua display. It’s 11% brighter than Pixel 9a, making everything from maps to messages crystal clear. And with a refresh rate up to 120Hz, scrolling through news or switching apps looks ultra smooth.

The UI is spruced up too. Launching with Android 16, Pixel 10a includes Material 3 Expressive, a refined UI that’s as easy to use as it is to look at, with redesigned notifications and personalized wallpaper effects.

Gemini is more helpful than ever on Pixel

Gemini on Pixel 10a simplifies your life and supercharges your creativity, helping you brainstorm ideas, find helpful information, and quickly get things done across your apps. For example, Gemini can connect to Google Maps to find top-rated family-friendly restaurants nearby, and text the list to a friend. Then you can ask Gemini to add the reservation to your calendar.7

Instead of typing, use Gemini Live for hands-free conversations, then enhance your discussions by sharing your screen, images, files, or YouTube videos. Share your camera in Gemini Live to have a back-and-forth chat about what you’re seeing – get furniture arrangement ideas for your apartment, or reading recommendations when you’re browsing in the bookstore. Even troubleshoot your bike gears.8

When you want to get creative, just ask Nano Banana to reimagine your photo. Whether you need a professional headshot or want to see yourself in a ’90s sitcom, you can transform your images in seconds just by describing what you want.9

And with the Google Tensor G4 chip and 8 GB of RAM, Pixel 10a is engineered to power everything you (and Gemini) do. 

Secure in a second, and protected for years

Pixel 10a is built to keep your private information secure while staying out of your way. With Face and Fingerprint Unlock, you can access your phone quickly and securely with just a glance or a touch.

  • A secure investment, from the inside out. The custom-built Google Tensor G4 and Titan M2 chips work together with seven years of security updates from launch to shield your sensitive data against new threats.5

  • Private browsing, even on public networks. The built-in VPN by Google offers an extra layer of security that protects your privacy online.

  • Help when it matters. For the first time on an A-Series phone, Satellite SOS can connect you to emergency services even without a signal.10

  • Always looking out for you. Built-in Car Crash Detection,11 Theft Protection, and proactive spam alerts12 provide daily peace of mind.

How Pixel 10a stacks up

Pixel 10a represents a significant leap in value, offering a much brighter screen and a larger battery than the previous A-Series phones: compare it to other Pixel models to see which one fits your needs.

Switching is easier with minimized setup time and on-device help

Moving to Pixel is a snap. You can prep your data – including passwords, photos, and apps – the moment you order from the Google Store.13 Once your phone arrives, the My Pixel app and built-in tips help you master your new device in minutes. Plus, Quick Share now works directly with AirDrop®, so sending a photo to a friend’s iPhone is easy.
