By revealing the design of Pixel 10a, Google announced the date of its introduction

In an unexpected move and much earlier than its usual annual plans, Google officially unveiled the Pixel 10a smartphone by releasing a short 15-second promotional video on the “Made by Google” YouTube channel. The move marks a clear shift in strategy from tech giant Mountain View, as we’ve been used to seeing A-series mid-rangers introduced during the I/O developer conference in late spring. But now, according to the official announcement, the pre-order date of this new product has been set on February 18 (corresponding to Bahman 30), which makes the competition hotter in the mid-range winter market.

The most obvious and important feature that can be seen in this promotional teaser and has attracted the attention of all experts in the field of technology is the fundamental and bold change in the design language of the camera module. Unlike the past several generations of Pixels, which have always been characterized by a prominent horizontal bar or oval-shaped bump for the cameras, the Pixel 10a has a completely flat and polished back panel. The dual camera lenses in this model are designed without any protrusions and completely flush with the body of the device, which gives this phone a very minimal, uniform and modern look. This change can completely solve the problem of the phone slipping on smooth surfaces that existed in previous models.

In the published video, the Pixel 10a is shown in a special blue and purple color (similar to the color of lavender or Iris). However, unofficial reports and previous leaks point to the existence of other colors such as black (Obsidian), white and an attractive color called “Berry” as well, which provides a high variety for different tastes. Although Google did not provide exact technical details in this video, well-informed sources in the mobile industry have revealed information about its possible hardware specifications. The Pixel 10a is expected to feature a 6.3-inch OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, which is a big leap from previous generations.

The beating heart of this device will most likely be the Tensor G4 chip that was previously used in the flagships of the Pixel 9 series and offers high artificial intelligence processing power. Rumors also point to the use of a massive 5100 mAh battery and a 48-megapixel main camera. In terms of software, Google is expected to maintain its long-term support policy and guarantee up to 7 years of OS and security updates for the Pixel 10a. According to the new advertising slogan, Google has probably planned more software surprises for buyers.
