Up to this point, Google’s unlocked Pixel 4A 5G was only available in black for those who want the unlocked phone. A white option was exclusive to Verizon’s more expensive version of the device – more expensive because it contained 5G millimeter wave. But soon, Google will release a white model of the standard $ 499 unlocked Pixel 4A 5G for people who do not want to pay the mmWave tax.
I looked at B&H Photo earlier today when I saw a list for it, clearly indicated as a ‘new version’. Since there are photos of the phone, it does not appear to be a mistake – and Google has since confirmed it The edge that the unlocked white Pixel 4A 5G will begin shipping on January 28th. Aesthetically, it’s identical to the Verizon version with a mint green on / off button. But you still get only sub-6 5G – no surprise as this is the regular price.
There have been some decent discounts and sales on the Pixel 4A 5G during the holidays, so some of you might be wondering about making a purchase before this one arrives. But at least you saved cash.
If you keep the score, with the release of this version, it means that the Pixel series of 2020 will now be available in these color choices:
Pixel 5, $ 699
