Google Pixel 8a Retail Box Images Leak The Phone’s Black Color،
The Google Pixel 8a is expected to arrive later this year, but the first photos of its retail box have surfaced online. According to a report by Android Police, the leaked images come from a Facebook group based in Vietnam. The images reveal some details about the upcoming smartphone.
Leaked images showcase the Pixel 8a design
First, the leaked images suggest that the Pixel 8a will ship in a similar box as the Pixel 6a and Pixel 7a. The front of the box has a close-up photo of the phone, with the Google branding and model name at the top. Additionally, the Pixel 8a on the box is black.
The phone image also reveals that the A-series phone will borrow most of its design elements from the flagship Pixel 8 series. For example, the camera module curves and blends into the side bezel. Additionally, it houses two sensors in a pill-shaped cutout and a round flash on the right.
The box contains a USB-PD rating
The box recommends using a USB-PD power adapter with an output power of up to 27W. However, this does not mean that the Pixel 8a will support 27W fast wired charging. The Pixel 7a supports supports 18W wired charging, and the 8a could have the same functionality.
Pixel 8a Specs and Expected Price in India
Meanwhile, many Pixel 8a specifications have already been leaked online. For example, the phone will have more compact dimensions but house the same 6.1-inch 90Hz display as the Pixel 7a. Under the hood, the smartphone is expected to run on the Google Tensor G3 chipset, giving it all the AI-based features of the Pixel 8.
According to the Google I/O 2023 schedule, the Pixel 8a is expected to arrive sometime in May 2024. Since the Pixel 7a still sells in India for around Rs. 9,999. Starting at $40,000, the Pixel 8a could be similarly priced, forcing Google to abandon the Pixel 7a. Or, the 2023 A-series handset will get a price cut and the new version will retain the average price.
