Are these the first pictures of the Pixel 4a?
The first images of the budget version of the Pixel 4 have apparently surfaced. The Pixel 4a would even have features that the premium model lacks. First and foremost a headphone jack and a hole-punch display.
Google has landed a hit with the Pixel 3a. The right mix of price, quality and compromises brought Google a record quarter last summer. No wonder the mid-range series is being continued.

The Pixel 3a was unveiled last May at the Google I/O developer conference. This year's event has been cancelled, at least in offline form. Nevertheless, the timing is right for the first leaks. They come from China and look surprising - but not completely implausible. The first thing that stands out is the display, which has neither a notch like the Pixel 4 XL nor a double chin like the Pixel 4. Instead, the image from Slashleak shows a punch-hole camera.

The same camera mound can be seen on the back. However, this is only supposed to be a 12.2-megapixel lens. The Pixel 4 has a telephoto lens. This loss would be bearable, as the 2x zoom is really not earth-shattering.
On the other hand, Google could give the Pixel 4a a fingerprint sensor on the back again, as with the Pixel 3 series. And on top of that, a 3.5 mm headphone jack is even rumoured to be installed at the top.

Wireless charging is missing and the dimensions are based on the Pixel 4 (144.2 x 69.5 x 8.2 mm), according to the leak. However, plastic is used instead of aluminium and glass. Nothing is yet known about an XL model. Under the bonnet, there are rumours of 4 GB RAM, 64 GB memory and a Qualcomm Snapdragon 730 or even 765. The latter would be 5G-capable.

Being the game and gadget geek that I am, working at digitec and Galaxus makes me feel like a kid in a candy shop – but it does take its toll on my wallet. I enjoy tinkering with my PC in Tim Taylor fashion and talking about games on my podcast http://www.onemorelevel.ch. To satisfy my need for speed, I get on my full suspension mountain bike and set out to find some nice trails. My thirst for culture is quenched by deep conversations over a couple of cold ones at the mostly frustrating games of FC Winterthur.
