Google to release Pixel 8a next week?

Google’s latest mid-range smartphone Pixel 8a is expected to hit the market sooner than expected, repot revealed Friday.

Though nothing is official yet from the search engine giant, but the report is hinting at May 07 launch and it would hit selves at the company’s I/O event on May 14.

The device will have a curvy design powered by the Tensor G3 chip and a 6.1-inch 120Hz display.

It is also likely to support AI features like its elder brother Pixel 8.

Report further suggested that it would start at 549 euros for the 128GB variant, which would make it 40 euros pricier than the Pixel 7a.

The 256GB model is rumored to cost 609 euros. They also say that the 256GB model will only be available in black.

It’s a little hard to digest that why would Google would open pre-orders for the phone before formally announcing it.

The leak doesn’t say if the company has another event planned for the Pixel 8a or if it will get a soft launch.
