Google has finally announced the release date for its highly anticipated Pixel 9a, with the phone on store shelves April 10.

The Pixel a-series is Google’s budget line of Pixel devices, offering many of the same features as their mainline siblings, such as the the same Tensor chip, while sacrificing high-end features, such as improved cameras. Rumors have been swirling about the upcoming Pixel 9a, but Google has finally confirmed its launch date in a support article.

We’re excited to announce that the Pixel 9a is coming soon! Powered by our fastest, most efficient chip yet, Google Tensor G4, Pixel 9a comes with everything you expect from our Pixel 9 series — complete with a sleek redesign, upgraded main camera and Gemini built in.

The rollout will be a staggered rollout, with the US, Canada, and the UK getting the new phone first, and other countries receiving it within a few days.

Update: The Pixel 9a will be available on-shelf on the following dates:
April 10th: US, Canada and UK

• April 14th: Germany, Spain, Italy, Ireland, France, Norway, Denmark, Sweden, Netherlands, Belgium, Austria, Portugal, Switzerland, Poland, Czechia, Romania, Hungary, Slovenia, Slovakia, Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia, Finland
