From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

One of the best budget smartphones of 2023, the pocket-friendly Google Pixel 7a has 16 per cent off at Amazon right now.

The £70 discount brings Google’s most affordable Android back down to its Black Friday price of £379 – the cheapest the phone’s ever been. This Amazon bundle comes with a 30W charger too, whereas most new phones no longer include one.

Boasting a more refined design, improved features, better camera performance and the Tensor G2 chip, the Google Pixel 7a is one of the smartest Android phones available.

Google launched the new Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro (from £999, Amazon.co.uk) phones in October, but isn’t expected to release a budget version of the Pixel 8 until mid-2024.

Here’s what we thought of the smartphone when we reviewed it and how you can get the handset at its cheapest price.

The Pixel 7a crams all of the most interesting features of the flagship Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro into a more affordable mid-range phone, without trimming away too much of the good stuff that makes the Pixel one of the best Android phones you can buy.

That means you’re getting all of those headline-grabbing camera features, such as Magic Eraser, Night Sight and Photo Unblur, as well as clever software tricks such as adaptive battery management, which tracks how and when you use your device to tweak performance and extend the battery life.

These are all features found in last year’s Pixel 6a, but the step up to the Tensor G2 makes things faster, more battery-efficient and more secure. You also get Face Unlock, which isn’t found on the 6a.
