Google is set to release the Pixel 9a, and WinFuture has released a fairly detailed look at this new device. The Pixel 9awill measure 6.09 x 2.89 x .35 inches, sport a 6.3-inch display with a resolution of 2424 x 1080 and a 120 Hz refresh rate and a 5100 mAh battery, and weigh 188g (which is less than the Pixel 8a), according to the leak. 

Also: The iPhone SE 4 this week isn't what you're expecting - and we can thank Apple Intelligence for that

The handset runs on a Google Tensor G4CPU, has 8GBof RAM, and either 128GB or 256GB of storage. The Pixel 9a also includes wireless charging capability, NFC, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 6, satellite support, and biometrics (finger and face). As for cameras, you'll get a 48MP main with a 13MPultrawidecapable of 120-degree field of view, and a 13MP front-facing camera.

Let's compare that to my Pixel 9 Pro:

The Pixel 9a has the same CPU and a larger battery but less RAM, fewer storage options, the same kind of protection on the screen (Gorilla Glass), but a slightly lower resolution. That Google Tensor G4 CPU is powerful. I've yet to see it get bogged down on my Pixel 9 Pro, so fans of the "a" models should be excited.

Also: I found a MagSafe battery pack that works flawlessly with my Pixel 9 Pro - and its seriously impressive

As for the price, expect to pay around$515 for the 128GB version and around around$642 for the 256 variant.

The leak also indicates there will be four color variants for the 9a: coral pink, obsidian black, white, and sky blue. The Pixel 9a has no current release date, but it should be available in late March. For those looking to jump onto the Pixel train, the 9a might be the perfect landing spot.
