Google Pixel has become a top choice for Android users worldwide, thanks to its leading cameras, fast software, and user-friendly interface. The lineup now includes the advanced technology of the Pixel 8 Pro, integrating AI for a futuristic experience, as well as the recent Pixel 7a, offering stellar all-around performance with a powerful camera and a budget-friendly price. As the range expands, with new launches capturing attention and older models retaining trust, here’s the ultimate list to help you differentiate between the models.
1. Google Pixel 8 Pro
The Google Pixel 8 Pro is like the tech wizard of the Pixel range, boasting AI tools that signal a new era. Its display is a real champ, adjusting itself for sunny days and ensuring distraction-free viewing. Equipped with Google’s newest Tensor G3 processor, it boasts on-device AI capabilities, eliminating the need for cloud reliance. The battery and camera stay reliable, but video quality gets a noticeable upgrade. Overall, it’s a refined device stepping into the AI future!
Price: ₹ 106,999
2. Google Pixel 7 Pro
The Google Pixel 7 Pro is all about that premium vibe—think a sleek, curved display, extra cameras, and a beefier battery. It looks all posh, especially compared to its matte-finish sibling, the Pixel 7. Under the hood, you’ve got Google’s Tensor G2 chip, which teams up with a cool 12GB of RAM. The ultra-wide camera pulls double duty as a macro lens with autofocus—a neat trick.

3. Google Pixel Fold
The Google Pixel Fold is like a tech marvel; its main 7.60-inch screen boasts a super-smooth 120 Hz refresh rate with a crisp FHD+ resolution. But wait, there’s more—a second 5.80-inch display with vibrant visuals too. Running on Android 13, it’s got a robust 4821mAh battery to keep you going. Slim and lightweight, it measures 139.70 x 158.70 x 5.80mm and weighs just 283.00 grams, coming in Obsidian and Porcelain hues. Connectivity-wise, it’s got all the goods: Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth, NFC, and a USB Type-C.
4. Google Pixel 7
The Pixel 7 is like the cool, budget-friendly sibling of the fancier Pixel 7 Pro. It’s got the same vibe in terms of design, performance, and camera quality. Under the hood, they share the same cool Tensor G2 processor and rock similar primary and selfie cameras. Now, when it comes to looks, the Pixel 7 opts for a subtle change: a matte-finished frame and camera module, ditching the polished finish of the Pro version. Software-wise, it’s a smooth operator and top-notch cameras just without the newer macro feature on the ultra-wide camera and the 5X telephoto zoom from the Pixel 7 Pro.
Price: ₹44,999
5. Google Pixel 7a
The Google Pixel 7a steps up its game with notable upgrades, thanks to the Tensor G2 SoC. Despite sticking to familiar materials, the design feels more premium, and it’s got an IP67 rating for added durability. The high refresh rate display adds a touch of fluidity to the Android 13 interface, making things smooth. And when it comes to updates, you’re covered—three years for software and a solid five years for security. Camera-wise, the Pixel 7a is a champ, building on the previous model’s performance. The new chipset brings cool features like a long exposure mode and a speedier night sight mode.
Price: ₹ 38,999
6. Google Pixel 6A
This model’s design combines glass for the display and a plastic rear held together by an aluminium frame. Solid, but not exactly premium—the plastic attracts smudges and dust like a magnet. With a 60Hz refresh rate, the software performance isn’t as snappy, but you get the latest Android 13 from Google without any annoying bloatware. The camera excels in various lighting conditions, but video quality falls a bit short. The battery lasts a day, but charging is on the slower side. It’s an upgrade with a few trade-offs!
Price: ₹27,999
7. Google Pixel 8
The Google Pixel 8 is a powerhouse with a smooth 120Hz display, packing a 6.20-inch touchscreen for a sharp FHD+ experience. It’s rocking the Google Tensor G3 processor with 8GB of RAM, ensuring speedy performance. Running on Android 14, it keeps going with a robust 4575mAh battery that supports wireless and fast charging. Snap stunning shots with its dual rear cameras—a 50MP primary and a 12MP companion. For selfies, there’s an 11 MP front camera. Storage options include 128GB and 256GB. It’s a sleek glass body available in Obsidian, Hazel, and Rose colours, with an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance.
