Pixel 10a: Subtle Upgrades and a Lifesaving Satellite SOS

The Pixel 10a is largely a Pixel 9a with a flatter back, brighter 6.3-inch OLED display, and a tougher Gorilla Glass 7i, plus two AI camera features. It also adds a satellite-based emergency SOS modem and Bluetooth 6.0 with faster charging. Core specs (Tensor G4, 8GB RAM, 128/256GB) remain the same, so performance is similar; battery life is also comparable, though updates extend longer on the 10a (through 2033 vs 2032). With identical pricing, the upgrade is modest—worth it mainly for the SOS capability and longer software support; otherwise, the 9a may drop in price and remain a strong option.
