Google Pixel 8a: An AI-Powered Smartphone at a Competitive Price
Engineered by Google with business users in mind, the Google Pixel 8a is an affordable, feature-rich smartphone with smart AI functionality.
At Giacom we’re here to help you deliver the mobile tech your customers need to communicate and collaborate productively, efficiently and safely. The latest addition to the popular Pixel range (the only phones engineered by Google), the Pixel 8a redefines the business smartphone experience using state-of-the-art AI technology. Easily customised, deployed and managed, it empowers businesses to transform the way they work, equipping employees with high-performing mobile devices.
The extra good news is that the premium features of the Pixel 8a don’t come with a premium price tag. That means smarter, faster working and built-in high-level security are available to all kinds and sizes of businesses at an affordable price.
Why choose the Google Pixel 8a?
AI is quietly revolutionising the way we work. Powered by the advanced Google Tensor G3 chip, the Pixel 8a has been designed with AI at its heart. AI-driven features help streamline workflows, improve productivity and enable effective collaboration with colleagues and customers.
Supercharge ideas with Gemini
Gemini is Google’s multi-talented AI assistant. It’s built into the Pixel 8a and embedded in apps, including Google Workspace. For example, the AI-powered functionality can be used to save time on everyday tasks, such as summarising emails or business reports in Google Docs.
Search documents and enhance images
Google AI makes it easy to review and analyse images, text and videos received from customers or colleagues. Circle to Search* uses AI to quickly find all related material on your Pixel 8a without the need to switch apps.
AI-powered tools also enable easy image enhancement. For example, with Magic Editor** you can reposition and resize subjects or use presets to add an appropriate background. Photo Unblur** does what it says on the tin, sharpening up images that are distorted or affected by movement. And Magic Eraser*** can remove unwanted elements from photos, as well as deleting distracting sounds from videos.
Smarter call management
Time is money. That’s why call management is so important, particularly for SMBs with limited resources. Using Pixel Call Assist^ means getting fewer unwanted calls and less time wasted waiting on hold, not to mention better call quality. It can automatically block unsolicited calls or unknown phone numbers, as well as taking a shortcut through automated calling systems and giving an estimate of hold waiting times. Pixel Clear Calling uses AI to recognise, isolate, and eliminate distracting sounds like wind and traffic noise, while enhancing the caller’s voice.
Reassuring security
With the custom-built Google Tensor G3 processor and the certified Titan M2 security chip, the Pixel 8a delivers high levels of security to keep business data safe. That includes anti-malware and anti-phishing protection, as well as automatic security checks and privacy controls. What’s more, seven years^^ of OS and security updates are included as standard, ensuring the Pixel 8a stays safe throughout its lifespan.
In-built resilience
Battery life is a big issue for business users of mobile devices. The last thing you want is your phone to die on you just when you need to make that vital call or download an important document.
The Pixel 8a’s robust 4405 mAh battery is designed to last beyond 24 hours^^^. In addition, Adaptive Battery uses machine learning to prolong battery life. Less frequently used apps that don’t need to be constantly running in the background are dumped out of the device’s memory when not being used, while apps that are used more frequently are retained in the memory for faster access.
Easy online ordering
Enabling your customers to discover the power and flexibility of the Google Pixel 8a couldn’t be simpler. All you have to do is visit the Giacom Hardware Store, accessed via our one-stop Cloud Market portal. Ordering, payment, delivery and paperwork are all managed with ease on the Hardware Store and there’s a choice of three payment options: residual value, finance lease or payment upfront on 30-day terms.

^^^ For ‘over 24 hours’: Estimated battery life based on testing using a median Pixel user battery usage profile across a mix of talk, data, standby and use of other features. Average battery life during testing was approximately 31 hours. Battery testing conducted on a major operator network. For ‘up to 72 hours’: Estimated battery life based on testing using a median Pixel user battery usage profile across a mix of talk, data, standby and use of limited other features that are default in Extreme Battery Saver mode (which disables various features including 5G connectivity). Battery testing conducted on a major operator network. For both claims: Battery testing conducted in California in mid-2022 on pre-production hardware and software using default settings, except that, for the ‘up to 72 hours’ claim only, Extreme Battery Saver mode was enabled. Battery life depends upon many factors and usage of certain features will decrease battery life. Actual battery life may be lower.
