Free earbuds with the 7a may convince some people.
where from?
Officeworks - https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/773421
Telstra has the same promo running as well.
Pixel Buds A don't have ANC
If you require iit
OW has 7 at $737
$150 JB gift card would play a part
Well, I hate bokeh. So the 7a produces better photos in my opinion
Most reviews I've seen say the 7 takes slightly better photos than the 7A
For most people I'm sure it does. I hate bokeh. It's less on the 7A.
$500 cashback would do it
explain?
I mean to say that I would buy the Pixel 7a for $749 if there was $500 cashback because after the JB giftcard, the phone would essentially cost $149
…I could resell the phone for $500 and make a profit.
@Heaps for Cheaps: ah yep yep ty
Interesting pricing strategy. The 7a is also the same price. I don't believe there's much difference between the two.
The 7 is a bit larger with glass on the back.
The 7a has a larger battery and higher MP camera and a larger sensor, but slower charging.
The gap is quite small between the both of them.
7a can be had for substantially less, around $450 or so
…. How?
Best seems to be $600 ish.
as explained by @thesmartone1125 below, to be fair it is a indirect saving given you get $~217 in google credit.
Requirements
- Student (unidays)
- Google one 2tb plan (turkey VPN may work)
- Money to buy the phone
Options to cash out the money might include buying a accessory, and using / selling it
explain
Click frenzy last week. Stacked discounts giving $128 off (+ approx another $18 from cashback), and then the $150 gift card. Total, $453.
The 7 has faster wired and wireless charging, the screen also gets much brighter than the 7A. At times I can't but complain about the dim screen on the 7A, but then I remind myself I got it for $674, a free case, and $150 Google credit, $67 Google one credit, that I intend to use to buy the buds pro when it goes back on sale again.
How'd you get all that?
Google store launch offer + google one store credit for purchases
I think the 7 has the larger sensor?
The display on the 7 I think is a tad better too?
Ah yes, you are right. The sensor is bigger.
I couldn't help noticing that an extra 128Gb storage on P7 now costs $380 more!!! (256Gb model)
Well, that's only because they haven't discounted the 256GB it't not a norm.
hmmm 7a for same price with $150 gift card. Not a surprising move considering the 7a priced the 7 out of the market.
Just pricematched at Officeworks for $711.55. Also, there was a glitch on Officeworks website and saw the price at $737 before reverting back. Looks like Officeworks will decrease the price to $737 tomorrow.
Classic Officeworks.
how did u price match?
I mean just walk in and show them the jb hifi website and let them verify. If it does come up as glitch on their end, that is really not your problem, and they should price beat it.
Just go to the store and ask if you can price match JB Hi-Fi. Show them the price on their website and if it is cheaper than what's on Officeworks, they will not only match it, they'll beat it by 5%! Price beat guarantee!
Cries in Pixel 7a
Only thing I miss on the 7a is the faster charging
The 7a is dimmer, that bothers me more than the 18w wired charging. (Couldn't care for wireless tbh)
I compared the brightness indoors to me P30 Pro and I was suprised that the whites were alot brighter on the 7a.
In store it seemed dimmer. I need to take the 7a outside on a sunny day and see if I can still see the screen with sunnies on. My P30 pro does fail at this on really bright days.
Not bad to get the 7a if you needed new earbuds. I already have one and didn't want to hold on to store credit I might never use.
Is this better than Samsung
Pixel had unlimited storage on photo plus google one earlier
Pixel 7 has non does it make sense now
Yeah it's better than any Samsung you'd get at this price IMO. Hell, it's better than Samsung's you'd get at a lot higher price if you ask me.
Is this better than the S23 Ultra, no. Is this better than other Samsung phones, yes and no. Gotta be specific what Samsung model you want to compare against, because the Pixel is better than some samsung and worse when compared to their high end ones.
I say this because, 2-3 weeks ago I picked up from the Samsung Edu store a A54+ galaxy watch combo for $549, sold the watch $150 so the phone for me was $399, so for that price I would pick the A54 over the Pixel 7A even with the $150 credit.
Y'all crazy taking a A54 over a p7 or even P7A IMO.
I said for the price that I got it for I'd choose the A54 over the 7a.
I didn't say I'd pick the A54 if they were the same price.
Meh, there will be way better deals within the next month. EOFY sales.
Exactly that.. historically we always seen jumping in too early In these sales just realising much better discounts weeks later

Barney Stinson agrees
Good price. Why would anyone buy the Pixel 7a at this price?
