Comfortable review of 3 types of smartphone cases that can protect the camera and display of 'Pixel 7a'



The appearance of the 'Pixel 7a' that appeared in 2023 is similar to

the 'Pixel 7' and 'Pixel 7 Pro' , but it is characterized by a smaller protrusion on the rear camera bar compared to past models. However, even though the camera bar has become smaller, it is inevitable that the camera lens will be placed on the ground when the back is placed face down.
