Detailed specifications for the Google Pixel 10a have surfaced online just ahead of its expected launch next week. The leak provides a comprehensive look at Google’s upcoming budget-friendly handset, revealing a strategy of refined improvements rather than a complete design overhaul. Below is a breakdown of everything revealed so far about the device and how it stacks up against its predecessor.

Fresh aesthetic choices

Exploring the color options

Citing a report from Winfuture.de, the Google Pixel 10a is set to feature a 6.3-inch OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and a crisp resolution of 2424 x 1080 pixels. Notably, the panel is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 7i, promising significantly improved durability compared to earlier models. Despite these material upgrades, the overall design language of the Pixel 10a remains largely consistent with the previous generation.

Under the hood, the device is rumored to run on the Google Tensor G4 processor, backed by the Titan M2 security chip. Users can expect 8GB of LPDDR5X RAM paired with UFS 3.1 storage options of 128GB and 256GB—though, as has become standard, there is no microSD expansion. Powering the experience is a 5,100mAh battery, which now supports much faster 45W wired charging alongside wireless charging capabilities.

On the photography front, the Pixel 10a is tipped to stick with a proven formula. It reportedly retains a 48-megapixel primary camera equipped with dual-pixel autofocus and optical image stabilization. This is complemented by a 13-megapixel ultrawide camera offering a 120-degree field of view. For selfies and video calls, a 13-megapixel front-facing sensor is expected.

Software longevity remains a key selling point; the Pixel 10a is expected to ship with Android 16 and receive an impressive seven years of software and security updates. Additional features include an in-screen fingerprint sensor, IP68-rated dust and water resistance, and dual stereo speakers. Connectivity is comprehensive, featuring Bluetooth 6, Wi-Fi 6e, NFC, USB Type-C, and dual SIM support (including eSIM). The device also reportedly adds satellite emergency calling and supports multiple navigation systems, including GPS, Galileo, GLONASS, QZSS, and BeiDou.
