In February, Google unveiled the Pixel 10a in select global markets, including India, in four colour options: Obsidian, Fog, Berry, and Lavender. Now, the US-based tech firm has rolled out a special edition of the Pixel 10a exclusively for the Japanese market. The company has collaborated with Japanese brand Heralbony to introduce a new “Isai Blue” colourway. The smartphone also comes in a special edition box featuring artwork by Midori Kudo, an artist associated with Heralbony.
The special edition package includes a blue bumper case along with a collection of stickers featuring original artwork by Nozomi Fujita. In addition to the physical accessories, Google has introduced exclusive Material You themes inspired by Japanese artists Shigaku Mizukami, Midori Kudo, and Kaoru Iga. These themes collectively offer nine distinct designs, each with customised wallpapers and app icons.
