Google Pixel 9a Leaks: Hands-On Images and Features Revealed!

The Google Pixel 9a is just around the corner, and like past Pixel phones, it’ll likely continue Google’s tradition of offering high-end specs in a budget-friendly mid-range handset. But with the competition heating up and smartphone prices skyrocketing, the big question is—can Google keep the Pixel 9a affordable?

Design and Display

The Pixel 9a is rumored to have the same design as the Pixel 9 series with a slim build and the camera bar on the back. It is also said to have a 6. 1-inch OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, allowing for smooth scrolling and vibrant colors.

Performance and Software

. The Pixel 9a will likely be powered by the Google Tensor G3 or a variant, bringing the same AI-powered optimizations, improved photography, and smooth day-to-day use. Android 15 out of the box will offer the clean software experience with long-term updates that we expect from Google.

Cameras and Battery

Google’s Pixel A-series phones are all about the cameras, and the Pixel 9a might follow the same route. We could see a dual-camera setup on the back with a 64MP main sensor and a 13MP ultra-wide lens that could take flagship-grade photos. There will be a 13MP front camera for selfies and video calls. There might be a 4, 500mAh battery with fast charging support so you can use it all day long.

Pricing and Competition

But since the Pixel 8a went up in price, we’re a little worried about how affordable the Pixel 9a will be. If Google sticks to around 35, 000 in India and $500 in other markets, it could still be a solid mid-range offering. But with Samsung, Nothing, and OnePlus offering viable alternatives, pricing will be key to the Pixel 9a’s success.
