The price rise could be because the Pixel 8a is expected to come with 128GB and 256GB storage options. For those who are unaware, Google offers the Pixel 7a with only a 128GB storage option.

The Pixel 8a with 128GB storage could be priced at EUR 569.90 (approx ₹51,300). Meanwhile, the 256GB storage option of the Pixel 8a is expected to cost EUR 630 (approx ₹56,700).
