Google Pixel 7a on Geekbench with Wireless Charging, 64MP Main Camera & 90Hz Display

The upcoming Google I/O event, starting on May 10, will unveil the Pixel 7a, which is being referred to as a mid-ranger, but its specifications are quite close to the flagship Pixel 7. According to leaked information from Roland Quandt, the Pixel 7a will be the first in the “a” series to have a high-resolution 64MP main camera, a high refresh rate (90Hz) OLED display, and wireless charging (18W). This is a significant upgrade from the previous 6a model. The Pixel 7a is expected to have the Tensor G2 chipset, but the RAM and storage capacities have not yet been confirmed.

While the Pixel 7’s 6.3” panel is slightly larger than the 6.1” display on the 7a, both have FHD+ 90Hz AMOLED displays. The Pixel 7a’s high-resolution main camera (rumored to be a 1/1.37” Sony IMX787 with 64MP resolution) and wireless charging bring it quite close to the specifications of the Pixel 7 flagship. The Pixel 7a is expected to cost $500, which is $50 more than its predecessor, the 6a.

A Geekbench test run revealed that the Pixel 7a, with the “lynx” codename, has a 1,380-point single-core score and a 3,071-point multi-core score. The device is equipped with the Google Tensor G2 chipset and 8GB RAM and will run Android 13.

The Pixel 7a is expected to launch with a 6.1-inch OLED with FHD+ resolution and a 90Hz refresh rate. It will likely feature a 64MP main camera and a 13MP ultrawide lens, as well as a 13MP front-facing camera. Wired charging (18W) and wireless charging are also expected to be included.

Google Pixel 7a First Teaser Resurfaces

The upcoming release of the Google Pixel 7a, a highly anticipated mid-range smartphone, is expected to be announced during Google’s annual I/O developer conference, which is scheduled to take place on May 10. The company has released its first official teaser confirming that the device will also be available in India.

Google has announced that Indian consumers can expect to purchase the Pixel 7a on Flipkart starting from May 11, which is just one day after the supposed official announcement of the device. If the price is reasonable, it could potentially be a great deal for Indian consumers. Based on current rumors, the Pixel 7a is expected to feature the company’s Tenso G2 SoC and an upgraded 64MP main camera, which are significant improvements compared to last year’s Pixel 6a.

Google Pixel 7a Confirmed Design and Key Specs Surfaces

Google has a history of failing to keep its Pixel devices confidential before their official release, and the Pixel 7a is no exception. After numerous leaks, including detailed images of a developer unit that surfaced online, we now have what appears to be official marketing materials for the Pixel 7a.

The marketing materials confirm several of the prior leaks, including a 90Hz display, Tensor G2 chipset with Titan M2 security chip, and wireless charging – a first for the Pixel A lineup. There is also mention of a new 64MP primary camera, believed to use the Sony IMX787 sensor.

The design of the phone follows the design language of the Pixel 7 series, and it is expected to debut at next month’s Google I/O conference in Charcoal, Snow, Sea, and Coral colors. The retail price is rumored to be $499, with availability immediately following the unveiling.

Earlier this month, leaked renders of the Pixel 7a in three colors were shared, and now reliable leakster Evan Blass has revealed the phone in a new shade. The marketing name of this color version is yet to be announced by Google. Although the company has not yet officially confirmed the Pixel 7a’s launch date or features, recently leaked marketing materials have aligned with previous rumors.
