Google Pixel 5a tipped for June 11 launch, new Pixel Buds likely to launch in April - Android

Google launched the Pixel 4 towards the end of last year, and now reports have already started to come in about the company launching a new Pixel phone this year. This information comes courtesy of a new leak by tipster Jon Prosser, who has claimed that the Pixel 5a will reportedly be arriving in June 2021. Prosser has also claimed that the new Pixel Buds will reportedly arrive in April 2021.

Prosser claims Google is planning on launching the new Pixel device on June 11, 2021. Although he did not mention the name of the device, it is easy to guess that Prosser is talking about the Pixel 5a. 

It won't also be the biggest surprise if the Pixel 5a is indeed launched by the company in June. This is because the phone had recently surfaced online with the renders revealing the upcoming handset with slight design changes. The renders revealed the design details of the device, revealing a 6.2-inch OLED panel, that is expected to support a high refresh rate. 

According to a post on Voice by popular tipster OnLeaks, the Pixel 5a could be an "exact copy of the Pixel 4a 5G which, from a purely aesthetic point of view, is nothing but a larger Pixel 5,” OnLeaks writes in his report. 

Talking about the phone, the Google Pixel 5a is expected to have the same unibody build as the Pixel 4a 5G. This could mean that the phone may come with a plastic build with curved edges measuring 8.8 millimetres in thickness. The Pixel 5a features a 6.2-inch Full HD+ display that uses an OLED screen with a punch-hole cutout in the top-left corner.  The Pixel 5a is expected to have dual cameras on the back. This is backed by a flash, all housed within a square camera module. The Pixel 5a renders also show the phone could have a 3.5mm headphone jack, a rear fingerprint reader and stereo speakers.
