The best Pixel 4a 5G deal yet saves you $250 instantly at Xfinity

Finding an excellent Google Pixel deal isn't always easy — especially if you don't want to get tied to a carrier contract. Thankfully, the Google Pixel 4a 5G was designed with affordability in mind, and with today's sale at Xfinity, you can snag the Pixel 4a 5G at its best price yet.
While the device regularly sells for $499, Xfinity Mobile has the Pixel 4a 5G on sale for $250 for a limited time. Today's deal saves you 50% off its regular price, and best of all, Xfinity lets you pay the entire cost upfront or choose a monthly device payment plan for just $10.41 monthly.
Another Google Pixel deal available today can score you the Google Pixel 3a XL on sale for $199 at B&H, though this version of the device is locked for use on Sprint or T-Mobile cellular networks.
Design-wise, the Pixel 4a 5G is essentially unchanged from the regular Pixel 4a, though there are a few extra features that make it worth the jump in price. One key differentiator for the Pixel 4a 5G is the Snapdragon 765G chipset with 5G connectivity. It offers much better performance in day-to-day use over the Snapdragon 730 in the Pixel 4a, so if you like to play games on your phone, the Pixel 4a 5G is a better option.
Both the Pixel 4a and Pixel 4a 5G have identical OLED displays, with the former offering a 5.8-inch screen and the latter a larger 6.2-inch panel. The panels offer HDR, are backed by a layer of Gorilla Glass 3, and are limited to 60Hz. The larger screen gives the Pixel 4a 5G a slight edge, but the panel quality itself is identical between both models. The charging tech is also identical across both devices, with Google offering 18W wired charging, though the 5G version has a larger 3,885mAh battery that delivers more screen-on-time. Both phones come with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage.
If your phone's camera is important to you, the Pixel 4a 5G offers more in that area than its non-5G counterpart with the addition of a 16MP wide-angle camera at the back as well as the primary 12.2MP lens.
