Google unveiled a range of exciting products at its recently held annual Hardware event. The biggest highlight of the event was the company’s smartphone lineup that featured the flagship Pixel 5 and two mid-range devices including the Pixel 4A and its 5G variant. Both Pixel 4A and 4A 5G belong to the company's mid-range line of smartphones which also offer a bunch of compelling features at a tough-to-beat price point.

Pixel 5 vs 4A vs 4A 5G

The Pixel 5 is Google's marquee smartphone that offers some strong features over Pixel 4. It obviously comes with 5G capabilities and features a 6-inch OLED display (2,340x1,080 resolution - 90Hz refresh rate). It runs on Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G chipset and packs a 4,080mAh battery. It has an 8GB RAM and 128GB for storage. 

In comparison, the Pixel 4A lacks 5G capability, however, it offers a decent 5.81-inch OLED display with the same resolution as the Pixel 5 at 60Hz refresh rate. It runs on Qualcomm Snapdragon 730 and packs a 3,140mAh battery. For memory and storage, the Pixel 4A comes with 6GB and supports 128GB of storage.

As far as the 4A 5G is concerned, it can actually serve as a strong alternative to Pixel 5 as it offers 5G capabilities and a bigger display with the same resolution. Interestingly, the Pixel 4A 5G also comes pre-loaded with Android 11 as opposed to Android 10 on the 4A model.

Additionally, it also matches the camera features available on the Pixel 5 and packs a stronger battery compared to its 4A counterpart. And if that’s not enough, the Pixel 4A 5G also runs on Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G, an upgrade over the Snapdragon 730 on the 4A.
