The smartphone will be powered by the Google Tensor G4 processor. As mentioned earlier, it will come with 8GB of LPDDR5X RAM and two internal storage options: 128GB and 256GB UFS 3.1.
The model will feature a 6.2-inch OLED display with a peak brightness of 2,700 nits and an HDR brightness of 1,800 nits. Additionally, the device will be equipped with a 48MP main camera (f/1.7), a 13MP ultra-wide camera, and a 13MP Sony IMX712 selfie sensor.
The Pixel 9a will pack a 5,100mAh battery, supporting 23W wired and 7.5W wireless charging. It will also include the Titan M2 security chip for enhanced data protection and secure boot processes. Furthermore, the device will boast an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance.
Leaked images of the model suggest a redesigned appearance.

However, no significant changes are anticipated for the front design.
