Insiders: Pixel 6a will receive a Tensor processor and a stripped-down camera

A collection of rumors about the specifications of the “budget” Pixel 6a has been expanded by the 9to5Google edition. Based on the latest reports from insiders, the journalists spoke in detail about the expected technical characteristics of the new representative of the branded series of smartphones.

According to the source , visually the new product will be identical to the Pixel 6 model with slightly smaller dimensions. The back of the device will house the main camera module protruding above the surface of the case, and the manufacturer will embed the front sensor into a 6.2-inch screen. According to the information available, the dimensions of the smartphone will be slightly smaller than the Pixel 6 due to the use of a more compact 6.2-inch display.

It is reported that the gadget will get the same Google Tensor processor as other devices in the series. At the same time, the company will allegedly refuse to use the 50-megapixel sensor of the main camera in favor of the more affordable Sony IMX363 with a resolution of 12 megapixels. Plus, the Pixel 6a won’t have an analog 3.5mm headphone jack. The presentation of the “budget flagship” is expected in early 2022.
