planning to buy a pixel device going to use for social media and multimedia no gaming I don’t even care about camera and don’t care about build quality anyway going to use with the case im choosing pixel only for the ui experience previously used pixel 4 I liked the pixel 4 very much bcoz of the ui haptics and compactness currently on mi 11x pro with lineage os
So I’m going to buy a pixel anyway my only concern is it worth paying extra 20- 25 k for a pixel 9 over pixel 8a at 30k or even spending 10k extra on pixel 9a
Same situation I was thinking of buying either the 7 or 8a as both will get under 30k in the bbl sale..can’t decide
actually pixel 9 is coming under 40k flipkart revealed today

i would say get s24 fe under 30k.
im a sucker for pixel ui
i feel oneui is better and has lot of customisation, pixel feels limilted.
yeah i know all the limitations and i have used s20 fe for a week still i lean towards the pixel ui
get 9a then, 9a base starts from 256gb. where 8a one is 128gb.
why not pixel 9 bcoz its teased under 40k

sure if you can spend 10k more
so u saying pixel 9a for 30k? i thought it will be 35k
Pixel 9 for 40k. No point in getting 8 series now
The Pixel 9a is the better choice for you over the Pixel 9 only in one case. It offers a more compact, lighter design, significantly better battery life for multimedia, and the same Pixel UI/haptics you loved on the Pixel 4. The trade-offs (comparatively slower charging, slightly weaker performance, less stability and lower RAM) although they don’t impact your social media/multimedia focus, especially since you don’t care about camera or build quality. But get it over the 9 in one case if you feel the price difference is larger.
What pixel 9 offers that you might feel you dont need rn:
Better camera sensor
Ultrasonic fingerprint
More RAM and more stability
Better screen -OLED -More screen to body ratio / Better back look XD
Better Glass Protection (Victus 2)
Reverse Wireless
I Totally forgot the ultrasonic fingerprint thanks for mentioning @Zork and also did u figured out your mobile or giving advices for others

What is best budget pixel? Pixel 8a or Pixel 9a or Pixel 10a? Keeping in view price to performance ratio.
If the price difference between 8a and 9a is more than 5k
Pixel 8a will be best budget phone
The Pixel 9 is slated to go for 35k after Bank Discounts. Ngl, personally, tempted to go for this but unsure about the battery life (all day is plenty since all I do is mostly listen to music)
I can compromise on charging speeds (coming from S21FE) and all that but it’s compact and the only real alternative I would consider is the 13R.

If u want better battery and performance go for 13 r otherwise pixel 9 is bang for the buck

Tbh, 5 years back, I’d have cared about performance but right now, battery is my main priority.
