After the release of its Pixel 9 series, Google is focusing on launching its next mid-range smartphone, which is said to offer flagship features and is not hard on the pockets. With the company gearing up for its next big reveal, many leaks have emerged that give away the design and other specifications of the upcoming Pixel 9a, with the latest one highlighting the new camera module that is flushed out and does not have the visor look that is generally observed in Pixel series. Now, a new leak gives away the color and more details on the design of the new budget-friendly version.

Pixel 9a leak hints at four color options and a thinner design than its predecessor

Just a while ago, we got renders that showcased the redesigned camera for the upcoming Pixel 9a, which no longer has the visor and opts for a sleeker look. Now, a new leak has surfaced that further highlights the new budget model’s dimensions and potential color options.

As reported by Android Headlines, the Pixel 9a will be coming in four varied colors and is sticking with the familiar and standard Porcelain and Obsidian color shades. The Peony color option is said to mirror the Pixel 9’s pink color, and Iris is also being added to the shades that can be referred to as close to a purple tone.

Other than the four colors Pixel 9a might be offered in, the report suggests that the dimensions would also be revamped in the upcoming model as it would be larger and wider than its predecessor. The claim by previous reports of a sleeker and thinner look also seems to be continued in this leak, as the report highlights that the budget phone might be thinner than the previous version, standing at 8.6mm. Pixel 9a is said to measure 154 x 73 x 8.6mm, while the Pixel 8a had 152.1 x 72.7 x 8.9mm dimensions.

Although the report does not give any details on the screen size, we assume it would be larger given how the company is tweaking the dimensions this time around. We notice how the dimensions reported are similar to the standard Pixel 9, the only difference being the 9a model being slightly wide due to the thicker bezels.

Nonetheless, removing the classic Pixel camera bar on the upcoming Pixel 9a is the biggest design change so far highlighted in leaks. It could also impact the internals of the model, such as the battery size. Pixel 9a is expected to arrive in mid-2025, but you never know as Google might take everyone by surprise the way it did with the earlier launch of the Pixel 9 series.
