Pixel 6a

As usual, Google is as leaky as a sieve, and more detail is rapidly being revealed regarding their new low-end handset, the Google Pixel 6a.

An APK teardown by 9to5Google has revealed details regarding its cameras and processor.

The Google Pixel 6a will feature 3 cameras, 2 rear and one front-facing:

  • 12.2-megapixel IMX363 primary – the same camera sensor as the Google Pixel 5a.
  • 12-megapixel IMX386 ultrawide
  • 8-megapixel IMX355 front-facing – this is the same sensor as the Google Pixel 6

The team was also able to confirm the Google Pixel 6a will use the same Google Tensor GS101 chip as the Pixel 6, meaning good performance at a much lower price.

Renders of the device have already been leaked, courtesy of tipster @OnLeaks(via 91mobiles).

Pixel 6a design

According to the leaked renders, the upcoming Google Pixel 6a looks no different than the original Pixel 6 smartphone. The smartphone features the same camera bar like the one in Pixel 6. It also features a glass back and a dual-tone design, similar to its elder brother.

As can be seen in the renders, the volume rockers and power buttons are on the right side of the frame. The 3.5mm headphone jack appears to be missing, so you’ll have to rely on Bluetooth connectivity for listening to audio.
