Google Pixel 8a sample gallery: Digital Photography Review

[ad_1]

Last week, Google announced the Pixel 8a, which slots in below the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro in Google’s smartphone lineup. Although it’s a member of the Pixel 8 family, the 8a uses the same sensors and lenses found in the Pixel 7a to keep its price lower than its siblings.

On paper, one of the Pixel 8a’s headline features is a 64MP image sensor. However, the camera uses binning to deliver a 16MP image; you can’t capture full-resolution photos using Google’s camera app. To do that, you’ll need to step up to the Pixel 8 Pro. You can see the full rundown of the Pixel 8a’s camera specs in our launch coverage.

We used the Pixel 8a in various lighting conditions, from daylight to nighttime. This gallery was primarily shot with the phone’s main camera, though we’ve included some images from the smartphone’s ultrawide camera as well. We’ve also included images captured using Google’s Night Sight and Long Exposure modes.
