The Google Pixel 9 basically just came out, but it’s already time to talk about the next one.
No, not the Pixel 10. That has to wait for another year or so. Instead, Android Headlines acquired and published leaked renders of the Pixel 9a via OnLeaks. In the photos, you can see a pretty radically redesigned Pixel phone, different from both the Pixel 9 and the Pixel 8a that preceded it last year.
The main thing to note is that, if the leaks are accurate, Google is removing the camera bar that’s made Pixels easily identifiable over the past few years. The Pixel 9 already started this process by turning it into more of a floating camera box than a full horizontal bar, but on Pixel 9a, there appears to be nothing of the sort. There are two camera lenses stacked horizontally in a regular-looking camera setup.
Android Headlines also pointed out the rather large bezel around the screen, which isn’t exactly a surprise for a budget phone. It’s impossible to say what kinds of specs or features the Pixel 9a will have based on these renders alone. The Pixel 8a was impressively close to the Pixel 8 for a much lower price, so expect Google to try and reach that again with the Pixel 9a.
It’ll just look different in the process.
