Google is set to unveil the Pixel 10a on February 18, with pre-orders expected to begin shortly after the announcement and general availability likely in early March. As anticipation builds, attention has turned to how the mid-range smartphone will be priced across major markets, particularly amid rising component and memory costs globally.
The Pixel 10a is expected to retain the familiar A-series design language, featuring a flat rear panel, rounded edges, a metal frame, and Google’s signature pill-shaped horizontal dual-camera module. In terms of hardware, reports suggest the device will mirror much of its predecessor’s camera setup, including a 48-megapixel primary sensor, a 13-megapixel ultrawide lens, and a 13-megapixel front-facing camera.
Under the hood, the smartphone is likely to be powered by Google’s Tensor G4 chipset. Additional expected specifications include a 6.3-inch LTPS OLED display with FHD+ resolution and a variable refresh rate of up to 120 Hz, a 5,100 mAh battery with support for up to 23 W wired charging, 8 GB of RAM, and storage options of 128 GB and 256 GB.

Despite increasing costs of RAM and other components, early indications suggest Google may keep Pixel 10a pricing largely in line with previous A-series models. In the United States, the base variant is expected to remain competitively priced in the mid-range segment, with similar positioning anticipated in the United Kingdom, India, broader Europe, and Canada. Exact figures are yet to be officially confirmed.
Maintaining steady pricing would allow Google to strengthen its foothold in the competitive mid-range smartphone market, where value-for-money offerings play a crucial role. The Pixel A-series has traditionally balanced premium software features with accessible pricing, and the Pixel 10a is expected to continue that strategy when it officially launches.
