We tested the Google Pixel 9a’s display to see how it compares to other phones on the market. The results show that Google has made a major improvement, to the degree that the Pixel 9a might have one of the best displays on a cheap phone.

Head-to-head with Google’s premium phone, the Pixel 9 Pro, the new mid-tier model is a lot closer than the price difference might suggest.

The A-series Pixels have been very good over the past few years. And in the Pixel 9A, Google has taken a good midrange phone and made it great.
