Maybe Google thinks that Us and JPN are the best markets for the pixel 5a. The chip shortage is real, so possibly google might lack enough stock of 5as and therefore will only sell in the markets where it does well.

BTW, if you want to keep free google photos backup after 1st june, go buy a pixel phone now, 5a and 6 will not have this build in, even for high quality. Second hand will work.

sad, going back to old nexus days. Import.

No wonder the blue pixel 4a only available in US and Japan. They already pre-selected their market

If the phone is worth buying, importing is just a small obstacle
I would have imported Pixel 4a 5G if not for the exceptional value of P4a ( local )

Feels like a rebranded 4a 5G if using 765g.
Let's hope the camera is upgraded otherwise it will be dead on launch

can save money this year and stick to 4a 5g since as usual google is always about the software than hardware.

Normally I would say that's true but that camera sensor is really long in the tooth.
