Tipster MysteryLupin shared the Pixel 8a spec sheet on X, shedding light on what we already knew about the phone.
Pixel 8a Specifications
The Pixel 8a features a 6.1-inch display with a 120Hz refresh rate and 2,000 nits peak brightness, safeguarded by Corning Gorilla Glass 3. It has dimensions of 152.1 x 72.7 x 8.9 mm and weighs 188 grams.
Performance and Features
Powered by the Tensor G3 chip, the phone may have slightly underclocked performance compared to the Pixel 8 and 8 Pro. It offers 8GB of LPDDR5x RAM and 256GB of UFS 3.1 storage. The device is expected to introduce new features like Magic Touch-up, Better Grip Magic, Real Tone, and more, along with a promised 7 years of software updates.
Camera and Connectivity
The Pixel 8a maintains a dual rear camera setup with a 64MP primary sensor and a 13MP ultrawide sensor, both likely from Samsung and Sony, respectively. Optical image stabilization is available for both lenses, with a 13MP front-facing camera. It also includes an IP67 rating, USB 3.2 Type-C port, Wi-Fi 6E connectivity, and LTE and 5G band support.

The leaked details suggest a €549 price tag for the Pixel 8a in Europe, with a €150 trade-in bonus for older smartphones. The device is expected to be available in Bay, Lime Green, Obsidian, and Porcelain color options.
