The Pixel 4a has a Qualcomm Snapdragon 730G Mobile Platform, Titan M security module for on-device security, 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage with an even bigger battery that lasts all day. To the right is a sneak peek at the Pixel 4a (5G) and Pixel 5.
The Pixel 4a comes in Just Black with a 5.8-inch bezel-less, OLED display, with a 3.5mm headphone jack, increased storage space of 128GB and 6GB of RAM.
The Google Pixel 4a will ship with the following key features.
- The same camera features from the Pixel 4 – including Live HDR+ Night Sight with astrophotography, Portrait Mode, and Top Shot.
- Note that the Pixel 4a will not have the rear telephoto lens in the Pixel 4.
- A Recorder app which automatically transcribes speech and lets you search across your audio recordings.
- Longer battery life based on Adaptive Battery that adapts to the way users use their apps, and reduces power to apps that are rarely used.

Together with the launch of the Pixel 4a comes the Pixel 4a knit fabric cases, which combine beauty, lightweight protection and recycled materials.

Here’s wishing everyone who celebrates Christmas a very Blessed Christmas!
Merry Christmas from the Blue Drawing Rooms in St Michael’s Mount in Marazion. Queen Victoria & Prince Albert (in the 18th Century) as well as Queen Elizabeth II & the Duke of Edinburgh in 2013 were in this room when they visited.
May peace and love be with you always!

Google has begun providing Pixel users with functionality improvements through what they call Pixel feature drops. The first one has just arrived.
These features are already rolling out and will hit all Pixel phones (Pixel 2, 3, 3a, 4) in the coming weeks. To get them, you have to update to the latest version of Android and go to the PlayStore to start downloading the updated apps.
The Pixel feature drop is in addition to automatic updates that Google currently already provide for fixes and minor improvements.
This first feature drop includes a new way to capture portraits, easier Duo calls and automatic call screening (for those in the US).
So for Singaporeans, what’s new with the new Google Assistant in English?
