It is said that Google wants to choose a larger display for the Pixel 9a phone, which is the same size as the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro flagship models.
The Pixel 9a’s 6.3-inch screen makes it a head-turner from previous generations of the Pixel A series, which all came with 6.1-inch displays.
In addition to the increased screen size, there are rumors that the Pixel 9a will have a 120Hz refresh rate; While the Apple iPhone 16 still uses a 60 Hz refresh rate. Google’s Tensor G4 chip and 8 GB of RAM and 128 or 256 GB of storage space will be other features of the next-generation Google mid-range phone.
The renders attributed to the Pixel 9a show that Google is planning major design changes for the phone. The prominent camera strip has been removed from the back of the phone and the two cameras are housed in an oval housing.
According to a report by Android Headlines, the Pixel 9a phone is likely to be equipped with a 48-megapixel main camera, a 13-megapixel ultra-wide camera, and a 13-megapixel selfie camera. Also, the phone is said to use a 5,000 mAh battery, which is roughly 11% more powerful than the 4,492 mAh battery of the Pixel 8a.
Despite the larger screen and battery, the Pixel 9a will weigh 186 grams, which is even lighter than the Pixel 8a.
It is not yet clear when Google will introduce the Pixel 9A; But reports indicate that it will be unveiled in mid-March 2025 (late March). The price of the phone will probably be around $500 like the Pixel 8a.
