Google‘s struggle to maintain the secrecy of its upcoming devices continues. The Pixel 8a which is expected to launch during Google I/O 2024 has been in numerous leaks so far. Today is another day of it with the latest one spilling the beans on the complete specifications and European price of the phone.
Tipster MysteryLupin has shared the entire pdf of the Pixel 8a spec sheet on X (formerly Twitter), and the details corroborate what we already knew about the device.
It will sport a familiar 6.1-inch display, this time with a 120Hz refresh rate and a peak brightness of 2,000 nits, protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 3. The phone measures 152.1 x 72.7 x 8.9 mm and weighs 188 grams.
Under the hood, it will run the Tensor G3 chip, though some rumors suggest the SoC could be underclocked compared to the Pixel 8 and 8 Pro. Memory options include 8GB of LPDDR5x RAM and 256GB of UFS 3.1 storage.
On the software side, the Pixel 8a is expected to receive a handful of new features like Magic Touch-up, Better Grip Magic, Real Tone, and more. Most importantly, the device will get 7 years of software updates just the like regular Pixel 8 and 8 Pro.
Keeping the lights on will be a 4,492mAh battery that supports 27W wired and wireless Qi charging. For security, you will get an in-display fingerprint scanner with the addition of face unlock.
Moving on, the camera department appears to be unchanged from the Pixel 7a. The phone still has a dual rear setup with a primary 64MP sensor (likely Samsung) and a 13MP ultrawide sensor (likely Sony). Both lenses have optical image stabilization support. The front-facing camera will be a 13MP unit.
The Pixel 8a also has an IP67 water and dust resistance rating, a USB 3.2 Type-C port, Wi-Fi 6E connectivity, and support for major LTE and 5G bands.
The leak also includes a Pixel 8a banner hinting at a €549 price tag for the European market. There will also be a €150 trade-in bonus for older smartphones.
The device is expected to come in Bay, Lime Green, Obsidian, and Porcelain colors. Now, all we have to do is wait for the device to officially hit the shelves, as almost everything else about it has already been leaked.
