We are just 5 days away from the official launch of the new 5G Pixel phones. The company will launch smart speakers along with a 5G version of Pixel 4a, and Pixel 5 at the event. Google had announced the new pixels briefly during the 4a launch. However, thanks to various leaks we already know the entire specifications of the Pixel 4a 5G and 5 ahead of launch. And now, high-quality images of the Pixel 4a have appeared on a UK retailer website giving us a good look at the device.
First spotted by 9to5Google, the images appear on a UK retailer named John Lewis. Although it appears under the regular 4a listing, it has a “5G” icon on one of the product images. That said, the images have the same look with ports and buttons placed similar to the 4G version. There is even a cut-out for the headphone jack at the top. While the color variants of the 4a 5G could be Black and White, the product image shows only the Black version.
Resembling the 4G version
The display also has a cut-out at the top left and thick bottom bezels like the 4a. That said, the other info on the page is about the 4G version and we couldn’t spot any details regarding the 4a 5G. Hence, this could be just an incorrect listing for the 4G version displayed accidentally. Also, the images corroborate with the early renders which showed almost a design identical to its 4G sibling.
Besides, the rear fuselage of the 5G has a matte finish with a similarly placed fingerprint sensor. There are two cameras inside the layout instead of one. Also, it could be a polycarbonate panel as the rumors say but we can’t confirm it by just looking at the images.
