Early Benchmarks of Google Pixel 7a Indicate Greater Power Than Pixel 7

These scores are slightly higher than those recorded for the standard Pixel 7, which averaged 1,336 for single-core and 3,061 for multi-core performance. However, the difference is unlikely to be noticeable in everyday use. Despite this, the findings further strengthen the notion that the Pixel 7a could render the Pixel 7 obsolete.

Interestingly, several Pixel 7a listings have appeared on eBay, indicating an imminent launch. These listings provide images of the box but do not reveal the phone itself, as sellers aim to preserve its value by keeping the box sealed. While the prices on eBay seem relatively affordable, starting at $380, it is advised not to purchase from these listings. Some may not be legitimate, and even if they are, the absence of a warranty and the potential for remote disabling by Google make it a risky proposition.
