A tariff evolution that questions
128 GB devices, although functional work, are becoming more and more limited in the face of ever more greedy software. Android 15, for example, occupies almost 25 GB on most devices – not to mention personal data and applications. This situation pushes many consumers to choose models with more memory, often much more expensive.
For Google, this increase seems to be part of a upgrade strategy. But it could keep the pixel 9a away from its initial promise: Offer a powerful smartphone at a reasonable priceas previous rumors announced. Because with a potential price of € 649 for the 256 GB version, the Pixel 9A would be aimed at a ready to pay audience to anticipate its future needs. Recall that Google has so far offers, and since the Pixel 8, a software follow -up lasting seven years.
