Real-world Pixel 9a Photos Leak Online Sans Camera Bar

Aug. 26, 2024



The Google Pixel “a” series offers all of the fancy hardware and software magic of the more costly flagship models at a lower cost. This is why they are the best-selling Pixel smartphones each year. However, it was recently rumored thatGoogle was done with the “a” seriesand that we would not see any new device release as part of this lineup. However, a new leak gives us a first look at what could be the Pixel 9a.

The images come from a deleted post from a Pixel fan group on Facebook in Vietnam. The leaked images werereshared by ShrimpAppleProon X (formerly Twitter).

From what we can see, the new Pixel 9a omits the camera bar of the Pixel 9 series, going completely flat on the back. There’s a glossy ring surrounding the dual back cameras with the flash placed next to it. It shares the same curved corners, flat sides, and a boxy design, like every Pixel 9 device in the lineup.

According to ShrimpApplePro, the phone is likely to come out at the end of the year. It willlaunch in a silvercolorway along with three other variants. Given we just got a Pixel 8a in May, it is highly unlikely. And just like any other leaks out there, you should take it with a grain of salt.
