The Pixel 7a looks essentially the same as the Pixel 6a, with a 6.1-inch OLED screen and a central perforated front camera with wider bezels. The difference is that the rear camera on the Pixel 7a has been changed from a rectangular module to a horizontal bar with a notch for a sleeker look. The Pixel 7a’s body material has also been upgraded from plastic to metal, and the camera module has been changed from glass to matte aluminium.
