Coming to the expected hardware, the Google Pixel 4a is said to be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 730 SoC. The device is likely to launch with 4GB RAM and 64GB/128GB storage configuration. In the software department, the device is expected to ship with Android 10 OS.

The rear panel is expected to pack a 12.2MP single camera for imaging. Rounding off its spec-sheet could be a 3,080 mAh battery unit.

Some leaks have also tipped the pricing of the Pixel 4A. If the rumors are to be believed, then this device will launch with a slightly lower price tag than its predecessor, i.e, the Pixel 3a. We are waiting for Google to make some official announcements regarding the same and will keep you posted ion the same.
