Pixel 10a WALLPAPERS

Pixel 10a wallpaper size: 1080×2424 px — what fits and what gets cropped

The Pixel 10a has a 1080×2424-pixel screen (6.3", about 421 ppi) with an aspect ratio of roughly 9:20.2. That is taller than a standard 9:16 wallpaper, so when a 9:16 image fills the screen you lose 112px on each side (21% of the width). This page works out how each of our three wallpaper sizes is displayed on this phone, and lists wallpapers chosen by measurement so the lock-screen clock and home-screen icon labels stay readable.

Which wallpaper size to download

To match the Pixel 10a's 2424px height, a 1080×1920 wallpaper is scaled 1.26×, a 1440×2560 one 0.95× and a 1242×2688 one 0.90×. About 1.26× of enlargement is barely noticeable at normal viewing distance on a 421 ppi screen. Only prefer 1440×2560 for photos with a lot of fine detail. The 21% side crop of a 9:16 wallpaper happens regardless of resolution; a 1242×2688 wallpaper is close to the screen's shape, so it loses 22px on each side (4% of the width). Every wallpaper page shows the actual size of that image in its specs.

Models with the same screen

The Pixel 11 and Pixel 10 share the same 1080×2424 screen as the Pixel 10a, so wallpapers are scaled and cropped identically. A wallpaper chosen for one of them works unchanged on the others.

Home screen, widgets and theme colors

Since Android 12, the system generates accent colors for buttons and notifications from your wallpaper (Material You), so on the Pixel 10a the palette of the image becomes the palette of the whole phone. Choosing by color from our 13-color classification keeps everything consistent. Android home screens usually carry large clock or weather widgets, and wallpapers with calm areas of color look much cleaner under them than busy patterns. The list below favors wallpapers that are dark in the bottom quarter, where icon labels sit. To set one, long-press an empty spot on the home screen and open "Wallpaper & style".
