Looks like you have an entire year to decide what action to take. Would be nice if Google drops the 8a price a bit.

My past experience of google discount code (toward the purchase of new products) does not stack with sale price.

IMEI could be on the back of the device or on the box.

Any word on whether this applies to the Pixel 4a 5G?

I got the email just when my replacement amazon battery arrived. I think I'm gonna go for the $50 cash. My 4a phone is about 4 years old already and battery is swelling. I'm hoping the cheap replacement last me another year. Hopefully another Pixel deal shows up.

Funny I was using my 4a for emergency phone for family member when they spent 2.months in hospital.

Just sat there but handy when I needed and seemed to work great. Battery wasn't that horrible. Even was a hotspot to get around captive portal so the WiFi photo frame. (Lenovo 10)

I'll hopefully get $50 and can still keep you his as emergency phone

Doesn't seem to work for Pixel 4a 5G. I just tried now thinking they were the same, but I recall not - Google had released a 4a and a 4a 5G separately.

It gives a message, "The IMEI you entered is not for a Pixel 4a device."

Not at all. Google is releasing an update that will hurt the phone's battery life. It's very weird. Why don't they just not release the update...

In the coming days, your Pixel 4a will receive an automatic software update to Android 13 that introduces new battery management features to improve the stability of the battery. This update will reduce your battery's runtime and charging performance.

To address this, we're providing some options to consider. Please take a look and choose which one works best for you.

Probably because the update also includes security updates.
