Ever since Google released the Pixel 3a and Pixel 3a XLin May of 2019, the mid-range Pixel devices have picked up their own following. Packed with an impressive camera, stock Android, first crack at Android software updates, Google's gimmicky software tricks, and better-than-normal battery life, the mid-range Pixels are a value buyer's dream.
Soon, Google did away with the "XL" versions of its mid-range phones and in the last two years, it released the Pixel 4a, Pixel 4a (5G), and the Pixel 5a. And this year, we should see the Pixel 6a with design cues based on the new look of the Pixel 6 series, including the rear-facing camera bar. According to a tweet from All About Samsung'sMax Jambor, the Pixel 6a is scheduled for a May unveiling.
Google could unveil the Pixel 6a at Google I/O in May
This could mean that the phone will be introduced at the Google I/O developers conference which was held last year from May 18th through May 20th after COVID forced the cancellation of the event in 2020. We might see Google I/O 2022 take place around May 26th. That is the date when Google will announce the Google Pixel Watch according to tipster Jon Prosser, who says that the announcement could be made during Google I/O.
The Pixel 6a is rumored to sport a 6.2-inch OLED display with a resolution of 1080p. While the rumor mill was churning out speculation that the handset would be powered by the Snapdragon 778 SoC late last year, AndroidPolice says that the Pixel 6a will be carrying the Google Tensor GS101 chipset which is the same silicon used inside the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro.
