Google Itself Leaks the Pixel 4a on its Canadian Store
Jul. 14, 2020Google’s upcoming mid-ranger Pixel 4a hasleaked extensivelyover the past couple of months. We already know everything about the design and internals. We are merely waiting on the launch date or a surprise official announcement at the moment. But, if you want an official look at the Pixel 4a, well, Google has jumped the gun itself. It has accidentally leaked the Pixel 4a via its own Canadian Google Store today.
As you can see in the screenshot of the Google Store, the company was supposed to show off the Nest Wi-Fi on the home page. But, where’s the Nest Wi-Fi? All we got a first official look at was the unannounced Pixel 4a. And what’s surprising is that the official render was up on the home page for quite some time. It has now been fixed.Screenshot of the Canadian Google Store home page
The Pixel 4a render above confirms all the leaks. We see a matte black Pixel 4a with a mint green power button. There’s a punch-hole selfie camera on the front and a square camera cutout with a single sensor and LED flash on the rear. The physical fingerprint sensor is also baked on the rear, as shown above.
I bet a lot of you mayalready be familiar with the specsbut here’s a quick roundup of what to expect from the Pixel 4a. It will feature a 5.81-inch Full-HD+ OLED display and backed by theSnapdragon 730G chipsetthat’s also found aboard theRedmi K20. You will find a 12.2MP camera on the rear and an 8MP camera on the front.
The device will come equipped with a 3,080mAh battery with 18W fast-charging via the USB Type-C charging port onboard. It will include a 3.5mm headphone jack – the same as its predecessor. The device will run Android 10 out-of-the-box if it launches within the next few weeks. However, if the launch happens alongside the Pixel 5 later this year, then the mid-range will arrive withAndroid 11in tow.
As per the rumors, Pixel 4a willarrive at a starting price of $349. It will undercut the Apple iPhone SE in an attempt to snatch the crown for the most value-for-money phone in this price bracket.
