Google Pixel 9a may launch early with a new design, Tensor G4 chip, 48MP camera, 5,100mAh battery, and a 120Hz display. Expected to start at €499, it could offer 7 years of software updates. Here’s what we know so far.

Google released its Pixel 9 lineup in August 2024, including four phones: Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, Pixel 9 Pro XL, and the Pixel 9 Pro Fold. Now, a couple of months after that, the company is gearing up to extend the lineup with an “a” variant smartphone, which is the watered-down version of the flagship lineup. The Google Pixel 9a is expected this month, earlier than usual as the tech giant typically unveils ‘a’ series devices at Google I/O in May.

Now ahead of the launch, tipster Evan Blass has shared renders, showcasing the phone in 4 color options. The device's design showcases a refined aesthetic consistent with Google's Pixel lineup. These images suggest a potential evolution in the camera bar design, hinting at subtle changes to the iconic Pixel look.
