Time goes by very, very fast. Without eating it or drinking it, it has been almost a year since the Google Pixel 6a was officially announced in May 2022. Therefore, the Pixel 7a , the next iteration, is expected to go on sale around the same date, that is. , in just 5 months.
However, this time things could get ahead of the game, as a video revealing the entire design of the smartphone has been leaked online ahead of the launch. Thanks to a Vietnamese Facebook group, we have been able to find out what this new cheap Google mobile would look like and that, according to the leaker, its design will be the same as its predecessor, which coincides with the rumors that have been spread so far. device date.

This would be the Google Pixel 7a
Based on what we can see in the clip and the photos shared, the camera module appears to be the same as the Pixel 6a, but with lines and shapes more similar to the Pixel 7 introduced a few months ago. Remember that the Pixel ‘a’ family tends to mimic the design of its older brothers, but with trimmed features, so it stands to reason that the smartphone has a dual-camera setup and not a triple-camera array with a telephoto lens like we have in the pro model.
Previous rumors had also indicated that the Pixel 7a would have a ceramic body, but that doesn’t appear to be the case. These photos are more logical, since ceramic is too expensive a material to star in the leather of an apparently cheap smartphone.
The leak on the Vietnamese group on the social network also confirms that the Pixel 7a will support a 90Hz refresh rate, which is a step up from the 60Hz refresh rate found on the Pixel 6a released last year.
Apart from these screen and design features, the reality is that the rest of the smartphone’s specifications are, today, a mystery. Even so, we can expect Google’s mid-range to hit stores with a Tensor G2 chipset, an OLED screen, a dual rear camera with a 64 MP main sensor and a 13 MP ultra-wide sensor.
Regarding the battery, we imagine that it will stay close to 4500 mAh, more or less, but everything will depend on whether the size of the screen changes this year or not. Also, there are quite a few rumors about the compatibility of the Pixel 7a with wireless charging , so Google could surprise you in a few months.
For now, we have to keep an eye on mobile-related leaks that, if possible, are more complete than what we can see in these images and video. If, as we think, the launch is brought forward a few weeks, it is quite possible that in less than a month we can confirm several of the future specifications of the brand’s mid-range device.
