We are closing in on the Google I/O conference where we could be witnessing the launch of new Pixel smartphones. For quite some time, we’ve known that Google had been working on budget Pixel smartphones, considering the
countless leaks
to hit the internet. The latest doing the rounds is a listing of the Pixel 3a on Geekbench. [caption id=“attachment_5353221” align=“alignnone” width=“1280”]

latest Google Pixel 3a
listing,
reported by MySmartPrice
, points to the device running on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 670 chipset. Although the chipset isn’t mentioned, the Pixel 3a’s low score suggests a chipset lower than the Pixel 3a XL. The listing also mentions that the device is running on Android Pie 9 and that the phone has 4 GB of RAM. [caption id=“attachment_6541741” align=“alignnone” width=“874”]

it was reported
that they will follow the ‘3a’ naming scheme before
Google accidentally revealed it
on its store along with
some of the specifications
. The Pixel 3a will be coming out in two variants – Pixel 3a and Pixel 3a XL. The Pixel 3a will sport a 5.6-inch OLED display with a resolution of 2,160 x 1,080 pixels, powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 670. On the Pixel 3a XL, a 6-inch OLED display will be used with a resolution of 2,220 x 1,080 pixels, running on a Qualcomm Snapdragon 710. Both the devices will be running on 4 GB of RAM and employ the Pixel Visual Core to power the cameras, currently present on the Pixel 3.
