Google Pixel 4a is Now Available in New Light Blue Color

Google is making its Pixel 4a available for a limited time in a fun new Barely Blue color if you buy directly from the online giant.

“Pixel 4a in Barely Blue [is] available now exclusively on Google Store while supplies last,” the Google Store website notes of the new color.

Beyond the color, the Pixel 4a is unchanged: It still costs $349 and included a small 5.8-inch OLED display and is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 730G processor, 6 GB of RAM, and 128 GB of non-expandable storage. There’s only a single rear camera lens—the same 12.2 MP wide-angle lens that Google has been using since the Pixel 3—and a fixed-focus selfie camera.

Still, for just $349, it’s kind of hard to argue against the value here. And if you’re still not sure, you can check out my review.

      The 4a 5G is as close as we get this year.

      <blockquote><em><a href="#593389">In reply to richfrantz:</a></em></blockquote><p>The original Galaxy Note "phablet" had a shockingly, impractically large 5.3" screen!</p>

    <p>Dangit Google! I even waited a few months before ordering my Pixel 4a and now you come out with an alternate color!? I would have picked up this color instead of black. This is obnoxious. </p>

      Yep. The way they’ve handled the 2020 Pixels is beyond confusing.

    <p>Honestly, it's probably their highest selling model right now so why not offer more colors.</p>
