- Google is in the early stages of development for the Pixel 10a.
- It is deciding whether to bring a watered-down Tensor G5 to the Pixel 10a or stick with the Tensor G4 from the Pixel 9a for another year.
- The higher cost of the Tensor G5 is said to be the reason behind this dilemma.
Pixel’s A-series is a great option for those looking for a great camera phone on a budget. We expect more of the same with the Pixel 9a, presumably launching in the next few months. While we wait to see what Google officially announces for its mid-range Pixel, we have details to share about Google’s 2026 mid-range Pixel, the Pixel 10.
Revealed as part of our larger Pixel 11 and Pixel 10 leak, Google is in the early stages of development for the Pixel 10a. The company is still deciding whether to bring a custom version of the Pixel 10’s Tensor G5 to the mid-range Pixel 10a or stick with the Samsung-designed Tensor G4 for another year after the upcoming Pixel 9a.
