Exclusive: Google Pixel 8a boasts 120Hz display, Tensor G3, DisplayPort output, better availability

Wonder if they'll use a rigid OLED panel like they did on the 7a and 8a. Dylan Raga wrote an excellent piece reviewing the Pixel 8's display where he said they'd finally switched to a flexible OLED panel on the regular model.

My og OnePlus Nord is still going strong with Lineage, but if it fails at some point, I feel that the Pixel a phones are kinda the best on offer at the moment, with the long update support, the hardware, the price, and the possibility to throw Graphene on there.

Never really saw the point in flagships after mid-rangers started becoming pretty good.

I dont care about screens at all... low refresh rate, low energy consumption, very dark lowest brightness, small.

They seem to be pushing their display port output for the desktop mode, are there any news regarding that ?

I really hope it has an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor..

I doubt that the 8a will get a better fingerprint sensor than the 8 or 8 Pro

Which is a shame, since they are so bad.

It probably won't because it would be much superior than whatever crap Google has in their flagship line. Big G won't like it if their budget phone is actually better at things than their top of the line model. If it changes, then expect it to change in the main series first.

I really wish they'd ditch that stupid camera bar. Every phone case attempts to hide it and it just makes the whole thing needlessly thick.

id honestly rather have the visor than a lopsided camera bump

Either way beats smooth flat glass that is constantly inching towards suicide.

My main issue with it is that it is way too thick. Most lopsided camera bumps somehow are more compact and thinner. You'd think with the amount of real estate that visor takes up they'd be able to make it flush with the rest of the back somehow, or at least match the thickness of phone cameras

Only now they're adding display port? Has it taken this long to release no one wants your stupid downgrade of a dongle

Google better stop crippling mic volume on their phones for anything other than their own buds.
