Google Pixel 11A Leak May Have Revealed a New Color and Spec Bumps
The purported renders show a similar design to the Pixel 10A, but this time with the newest Tensor chip.
Google's upcoming lower-cost flagship phone, the Pixel 11A, may have been leaked for the first time featuring a new purple color option alongside black, silver, and green variants. The renders suggest the device will maintain a simple flat design similar to the Pixel 10A, which is priced at $499. Google's marketing team is likely to rename the color variants with artsy names.
However, the Pixel 11A is expected to upgrade to the Tensor G6 processor, the same one found in the $899 Pixel 11. This is a significant spec bump from the Pixel 10A, which utilized the Tensor G4 processor from the Pixel 9 series. The Pixel 10A was praised for its feature-packed camera, but lacked some Pixel 10 features such as Magic Cue for contextual assistance.
The official unveiling of the Pixel 11A is still months away, following the timeline of the Pixel 10A's announcement in February. However, the ongoing RAM shortage may impact the initial pricing for Google's A-series. If the Pixel 11A starts at $599, similar to the rest of the Pixel 11 lineup, it would likely eliminate the $499 128GB model but retain a 256GB option at $599, similar to the current Pixel 10A.
