A few days back, news broke out that Google will double down on its Pixel smartphone strategy in India this year by improving the inventory for the successor of Pixel 4a. Now, a mysterious Google Pixel smartphone has appeared on India’s BIS certification bureau.

An unknown Google smartphone with model number GR0M2 has been certified by BIS (Bureau of Indian Standards). The certification does not reveal anything about his handset. But there’s a chance that it could be none other than the Pixel 5a.

But unfortunately, we do not have concrete proof to confirm this. Also, the previous-gen Pixel a-series featured completely different model numbers in India. Such as Pixel 3a (G020F), Pixel 3a XL (G020B), and Pixel 4a (G025N).

Anyway, coming back to Pixel 5a, we know how this device will look, thanks to a number of 3D CAD renders by @OnLeaks (Steve Hemmerstoffer). According to the renders, Google’s next affordable smartphone will have a similar design as the Pixel 4a 5G.

The phone is reported to sport a 6.2-inch FHD+ OLED display on the front with a punch-hole at the top left corner. Further, as per renders, it will house a dual-camera setup and a capacitive fingerprint sensor on the back. Lastly, just like its predecessors, this handset will also come with a plastic build, an accented power key, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a USB Type-C port.

Last but not least, the Pixel 5a could measure 156.2 x 73.2 x 8.8mm in dimensions and may launch on June 11 in the US.
