If you’re looking for an Android phone that won’t break the bank, the Pixel 9A<\/a> is one of the absolute best options on the market right now. Released in April, it quickly earned a spot on our list of the best phones for 2025<\/a>, and one of our favorite budget models thanks to its affordable $499 starting price. And right now, you can get your hands on one for even less.<\/p>\n

Amazon has knocked $150 off the 128GB unlocked configuration, which means you can grab it for just $349<\/a> or upgrade to 256GB for just $449<\/a>. This is the absolute lowest price we\u2019ve seen at Amazon, so we\u2019d recommend taking advantage of these savings while you can.<\/p>\n

At just $349, the Pixel 9a is now available for far less than the basic Pixel 9. But even though it\u2019s significantly cheaper, it offers many of the same specs and features, making it an unbeatable value. Both have a vibrant 6.3\u2011inch OLED display, as well as the same Google Tensor G4 processor, which supports Gemini AI features<\/a>. Plus, the Pixel 9a actually has an improved 13MP front camera and boosts the battery life up to 30 hours. You\u2019re only getting 8GB of RAM instead of 12GB, and the rear ultrawide camera isn\u2019t as impressive, but for those who really only need the basics, the Pixel 9a is an absolute steal and one of the best phones you\u2019ll find for less than $500.<\/p>\n
