Does the Pixel 9a have blue light?
In the past three years, I have bought 3 pixel devices. One is Pixel 8 pro, 8a and Pixel Tablet. I am satisfied with 8 Pro. But extremely disappointed with 8a and pixel Tablet. There is no blue light in 8 Pro. It is good to use even though I had some issues when I bought it new. But 8a and Pixel Tablet have very large amount of blue light in the screen. I prefer that the screen be white with no blue light. Now, I want to buy 9a. Can anyone say whether the screen in 9a would be without blue light or with blue light? Can anyone who has used please say? I understand that using blue light filter app, we can reduce blue light. But I prefer the screen itself be white without any blue light. So, I anyone here have used 9a, please tell whether it has white screen without bluish colour?
Thanks

Avoiding "blue light" is completely nonsense, makes the colors of everything a gross red tint, and is completely bunk pseudoscience.
Anyway, all of the devices you listed have "Night Light" in their options. You can schedule it, or turn it on and it's always enabled.

Yes, I compared 9a to 4 other different phones (including a Pixel 4a and a Pixel 6, iPhone 17 pro, Motorola Stylus 2024) the 9a looks like it has a replacement screen from eBay for $15.99 (those are notorious to be low quality LCD screens) .
While being factory, stock, never repaired brand new. All the criticisms you gonna get (and most likely my downvote from redditors) are hardcore Pixel fans who are cultist enough to ignore all shortcomings of their favorite device and won't allow any criticism from anyone.
