The Google Pixel 4a smartphone has been recalled in Australia due to a potential overheating hazard that could cause burns or fires. Sold at retailers including JB Hi-Fi, Harvey Norman, and Telstra between August 2020 and September 2022 (model G025N), affected devices may pose risks. The ACCC urges users to immediately stop using the phone and check for an Android 13 update issued on January 8, 2025, which adds battery safeguards. Owners can seek refunds if the update isn’t applied. Visit the ACCC website for details or contact Google Australia directly.
