If you love Google’s Pixel phones but prefer an affordable option, the Pixel A-series has always been a solid choice. Now, Google is gearing up to launch its latest mid-range phone—the Pixel 9a. While the official announcement is still pending, multiple leaks suggest that the Pixel 9a could be unveiled on March 19, 2025, with sales beginning a week later. Here’s everything we know so far.

Pixel 9a Design and Display

Google isn’t expected to make major changes to the Pixel 9a’s design. The phone will likely maintain the classic Pixel A-series look, featuring a compact body and a dual-camera setup on the back.

Expected Design Highlights:

  • 6.3-inch display – slightly larger than its predecessor.
  • Dual-camera setup – expected to include a 48MP main sensor.
  • Multiple color options – Reports suggest Google may launch the Pixel 9a in four colors:
    • Iris (Blue)
    • Obsidian (Black)
    • Peony (Pink)
    • Porcelain (White)

Pixel 9a Specs and Features

The Pixel 9a is expected to deliver solid performance with Google’s Tensor G4 chip, the same processor rumored for the premium Pixel 9 series. This should make the Pixel 9a one of the most powerful A-series devices yet.

Key Expected Features:

  • Processor: Google Tensor G4 for smooth performance.
  • Security: Titan M2 security chip for added protection.
  • Software: Ships with Android 15 out of the box.
  • Cameras:
    • 48MP main camera
    • 13MP ultra-wide camera
    • 13MP front camera for selfies and video calls.
  • Battery:
    • 5,100mAh battery – a significant upgrade.
    • 23W wired charging & 7.5W wireless charging.

Pixel 9a Expected Price and Launch Date

Leaks suggest that the Pixel 9a could be priced at $499 for the 128GB variant. However, in India, the price may go up to ₹50,000 due to taxes and import duties.

Launch Timeline (Rumored):

  • Announcement Date: March 19, 2025
  • Sales Start: March 26, 2025

While Google has yet to confirm the launch, these details align with past Pixel A-series releases.
