Google teases Pixel 10a: Price, Launch Date, Design and Specs

Google is gearing up to launch the Pixel 10a, the most affordable smartphone in the Pixel 10 lineup. The company recently teased the device in a 15-second video. The teaser highlights major changes in the phone’s design.

Most notably, Google has dropped the iconic camera bar. Instead, the Pixel 10a features a fully flat rear camera module. This change marks a clear shift from the design language Google has followed since the Pixel 6. As a result, the Pixel 10a looks cleaner and more understated.

Google has also confirmed that pre-orders will begin on February 18. The company expects to start shipping the device later this month.
