Verizon's exclusivity on the Clearly White Pixel 4a 5G has now ended. This variant is now available as an unlocked model in Canada, Taiwan, Japan, and the US. Like the Just Black option, it still costs $679. It has a rear polycarbonate casing with a mint green power button. The screen is surrounded by a black frame, giving it a bit of two-tone colour.

The Pixel 4a 5G runs on a Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G chipset, 6GB of RAM, and a 3,800mAh battery. It has a 6.2-inch OLED display with a 2,340 x 1,080 resolution, and a 12.megapixel rear camera paired with a 16-megapixel ultrawide sensor. This phone still has a 3.5mm audio jack, but the handset doesn't have an IP waterproof rating or wireless charging support.
