The Google Pixel 4a is right around the corner, as it’s expected to arrive later today. The Google Pixel 4a 5G and Pixel 5, however, will likely arrive later this year.
Well, those two phones have just been shown in a new leak by Ishan Agarwal. Mr. Agarwal is one of the best-known tipsters around, and his leaks are usually spot on. That gives this leak quite a bit of credibility.
Image reveals some Google Pixel 4a 5G & Pixel 5 5G details
In any case, he shared a single image of the two phones. This image does not show the Pixel 4a 5G and Pixel 5 5G in their full glory. It does, however, show their right side, for the most part.
First and foremost, the tipster hints that the Pixel 4a 5G may be bigger than the Pixel 4a. The device may essentially be the cancelled Pixel 4a XL. So, you can expect a bigger display and a bigger battery, in addition to 5G connectivity.
The first phone shown here is the Pixel 5 5G, it seems, the one on the left. That device features a brushed metal frame. The Pixel 4a 5G is on the right, and its body is made out of polycarbonate (plastic), the same as the Pixel 4a’s.
The Google Pixel 4a 5G has a larger home button, as you can see, and it’s colored. The Pixel 5 5G’s button seems to be in the same color as its frame, and it’s made out of metal, almost certainly.
So, based on this leak, we do know that the Pixel 5 5G will be smaller than the Pixel 4a 5G. Will there be a Pixel 5 XL, though? Well, it’s possible, but we’ll have to wait and see. At this point in time, that variant is still in question.
Both of these phones will have camera modules on the back that protrude a bit. The SIM card tray is located right below the power / lock key on both of these smartphones.
The two phones are expected to launch at the same time
The Pixel 4a 5G and Pixel 5 5G are expected to arrive at the same time. The two phones are currently rumored to arrive in October, though that information may not be accurate.
The Pixel 5 5G is rumored to arrive with the Snapdragon 765G 64-bit octa-core processor. That is one of Qualcomm’s best mid-range chips. Google has no intention to utilize the Snapdragon 865 or Snapdragon 865 Plus this year, it seems.
Considering that the company will use the Snapdragon 765G, the Pixel 5 5G is expected to be more affordable than the competition. The device is also expected to bring an improved camera setup.
The Pixel-branded phones have been considered to be amongst the best camera phones for years now. The Pixel 5 5G is expected to continue that tradition. We still do not have the details, though.
