Pixel 7A preorders are now open and we’re gathering up the best Pixel 7A deals available at launch to make it easy, and even more affordable, to get your hands on one. Unveiled at Google I/O, the 2023 A-series Pixel phone takes a lot of cues from the flagship Pixel 7 — both in terms of looks and features — and crams them into a slightly smaller and more affordable package.
Despite being an entry-level device, the Pixel 7A is still plenty powerful with the same Google Tensor G2 chip as the step-up Pixel 7, a new 64-megapixel main camera and 90Hz screen for smoother scrolling. It also adds nice-to-haves like wireless charging and face unlock, features eschewed by previous A-series handsets. Google also says it bumped up the Pixel 7A’s brightness compared to last year’s model and you can expect all-day battery life with mixed usage (or longer using the extreme battery saving mode).
The 6.1-inch Pixel 7A is a touch smaller than the 6.3-inch Pixel 7, which will be a boon for small phone fans or those that like to use their devices one-handed. Though technically a step down hardware-wise, the camera performance is comparable to the Pixel 7 for casual photographers, though the flagship Pixel 7 Pro offers some fancier features for the mobile photography enthusiasts.
Whether you’re wanting to be among the first to get your hands on Google’s new budget handset, or if it’s simply time to upgrade from an older device, we’ll help you work out the best place to buy your Pixel 7A. We’re rounding up the best Pixel 7 preorder deals below and we’ll keep this page updated as new offers emerge.

How much does the Pixel 7A cost?
Like last year’s Pixel 6A, there’s only one configuration of Pixel 7A. It comes with 128GB of internal storage and 8GB of RAM and costs $499.
Notably, that’s a $50 increase on the price point compared to last year’s phone. With Google keeping the Pixel 6A around at $349, the previous-gen device still makes for an attractive option for those on a strict budget.
What colors does the Pixel 7A come in?
Google has switched up the hues a little for this year’s A-branded phone, with four colors to choose from: black, white, light blue and a Google Store-exclusive coral. We’ve put together a handy guide to help you choose the right Pixel 7A color.
