After two successful generations, Google apparently lost its way with the Pixel smartphones. The aptly priced Pixel 3a was a beacon of hope, but things went downhill again with the Pixel 4. Of course, Google is not the one to go without a fight, and apparently it wants to do everything right this year. Reports have been swirling around that the Pixel 4a will be cheaper than the rumored $399 price tag and now Google has lent more credibility to those leaks. 

Pixel 5’s starting price will reportedly be $100 lower than Pixel 4’s

Apparently, Google is trying to ascertain which of the two handsets users will prefer more. While it might be worried about the Pixel 4a eating up Pixel 5 sales, it makes more sense to worry about the overall shipments at the moment. 

While the survey is no confirmation that these would be the actual starting prices of the upcoming Pixel 4a and Pixel 5, this is something Google desperately needs to stay relevant.
