The next Google Pixel phone leaked and could be | Tech News

The Google Pixel 9a will not be but a yr outdated, and but rumours are hotting up about its alleged sequel. According to stories, the Pixel 10a is due for release much less than 365 after its predecessor, with an announcement mooted for late February.

French tech website Dealabs stories that the Pixel 10a will go on sale on March 5, 2026, with an announcement and pre-order window coming earlier than that from February 18. The Pixel 9a was introduced in March 2025, however was delayed in happening sale and didn’t hit the UK till April 10.

Prominent phone tipster Evan Blass has backed up this release schedule over on X:

The Pixel A-series is Google’s midrange different to its flagship Pixel smartphones. The Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro, Pixel 10 Pro XL and Pixel 10 Pro Fold had been launched back in August 2025. Google often leaves a six month hole earlier than asserting the supporting A-series phone, so February is sensible for an unveiling of the Pixel 10a.

I actually liked the Pixel 9a once I reviewed it at launch, and even named it my phone of the yr in December. Even although the price has crept up in comparison with older Pixel A telephones to £499, the 9a is steadily on sale for about £349, making it a true discount. It doesn’t really feel such as you’re utilizing a ‘cheap’ phone, and I didn’t miss the slight enhancements in screen high quality, construct and cameras on the a lot more costly Pixel 10 Pro XL.

Even battery life is superb. I can simply get two days from the phone. Plus, the pink peony colour is great.

Perhaps, then, Google is aware of to not mess with a good factor, as a result of leaks counsel the Pixel 10a goes to be extremely just like the 9a. Ever for the reason that Pixel 3a in 2019, Google has modified the A-series’ design. The 9a lacks the current Pixels’ distinctive digital camera bar in favour of a twin lens set up with no digital camera bump in any respect. It seems plainer, however it is rather smooth.

The 10a could nicely have a near-identical design, in response to renders printed by Android Headlines (see above). Evan Blass additionally posted an alleged certification of the Pixel 10a for us on Verizon within the US, with specs revealed to be similar to the 9a for screen measurement, cameras, reminiscence and even battery measurement:

Leaker Roland Quandt added on Bluesky that the phone will are available in Obsidian, Berry, Fog and Lavender colors, a swap up from the Pixel 9a.

If you’ve gotten been eager about upgrading your Android phone and like what Google is doing with its Pixel telephones, you may need to wait a couple of months to see if the Pixel 10a is introduced. That stated, the Pixel 9a is superb, and is assured software program updates till 2032.
