The first Pixel 10a pre-order deals are starting to roll in. The new phone, which could be a top contender for best cheap phone of 2026, will be available for purchase on March 5.
Fortunately, the Pixel 10a has kept its $499 starting price. Like its predecessor, it features a 6.3-inch Actua OLED 60-120Hz display, Tensor G4 chipset, 8GB of RAM, and 128GB of storage. There's also a 48MP main camera, 13MP ultrawide camera, and 13MP selfie camera. That's almost identical to its predecessor, which is why I wouldn't recommend paying full price for this phone.
In terms of Pixel 10a deals — Verizon is offering the phone for free when you purchase it online with an eligible unlimited data plan. It may be a few days before we see more confirmed deals, so make sure to bookmark this page as I'll be listing the best Pixel 10a deals as they're released.

The $499 Pixel 10a is a true budget smartphone. It's powered by Google's Tensor G4 chip and coupled with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. You also get a larger 6.3-inch Actua display, 48MP main camera, 13MP ultrawide camera, and 13MP selfie camera. If that sounds oddly familiar, it's because it's the exact same spec sheet as its predecessor, the Pixel 9a.
In our Pixel 10a vs Pixel 9a comparison you'll see why we called the Pixel 10a one of the smallest phone upgrades of the year. Very little hardware has changed, if any, and the software differences aren't likely to be much larger either. In our Pixel 10a hands-on, we said we're thrilled it remains $499, but if you currently own a Pixel 9a, there's no reason for you to upgrade.
