After the Pixel 9 series, I’m looking forward to the Pixel 9a. Here’s what I expect and hope Google will deliver.

The Google Pixel 9a is expected to launch soon, with shipping said to start on 26 March. But, the affordable cousin of the Pixel 9 phones won’t just be about the great camera on the back, it’s reportedly going to bundle in a range of free services too.

This is Google's best foldable so far, but with too many compromises to deliver true flagship performance to compare with Samsung or the main Chinese foldable makers.
