More details on that are expected in the next few hours. The tipster also added that the Google Pixel 6a will have a box price of Rs 43,999 in the country, but the actual cost could be around Rs 37,000. The device costs $449 in the US which roughly translates into Rs 35,000. The Pixel 6a will compete with the likes of the newly-launched Nothing Phone 1 and the iQoo Neo 6 among others.
