An alleged screengrab from the internal inventory management system of a Canadian carrier was posted on Reddit and tells us all we need to know about pricing of the upcoming Pixel 3a and 3a XL midrangers by Google.
Pixel 3a and XL prices - plastic at a Google camera premium
In it, the smaller. 5.6" handset, codenamed Google "Sargo," is listed at 650 CAD, while the larger 6-incher "Bonito" goes for 800 CAD. Google's direct pricing could be a bit lower, though, as these things go, but, even if we just go the exchange rate route, that means US pricing of less than 500 USD for the 3a and about 600 USD for the 3a XL.
The Pixel 3a and 3a XL CAD prices are in line with what we've heard about the USD price tags so far
Compared to the current starting price of $799 for the Pixel 3 and $899 for the 3 XL, Google's first midrangers would surely look like a bargain to potential buyers. Most of the Pixel customers are attracted to the phones made by Google on account of the pure stock Android and the class-leading camera, and those will be present on the 3a and 3a XL, too, just in a cheaper package.

To recap, The Pixel 3a is powered by a mid-range processor, which is something new for Google. The device is reportedly sporting a Snapdragon 670 chipset and boast 4GB of RAM alongside 32 gigs of native storage, no microSD card slot, and a 2,915mAh battery on deck.
Size-wise the Pixel 3a is pretty similar to the iPhone XR despite having a much smaller, 5.6-inch display and should be "unapologetically plastic" if the rumors pan out. Its larger sibling, the 3a XL will reportedly be identical save for the screen diagonal and battery size, so expect plenty of interesting moments when these two are announced.
