A tipster who uses a Twitter account with username @Samsung_News_ has leaked the specifications of the Pixel 3a and Pixel 3a XL. The Pixel 3a is claimed to come with a 5.6-inch full-HD+ (1080x2220 pixels) "gOLED" display with an 18.5:9 aspect ratio and 441ppi. It packs a 3,000mAh battery with an 18W fast-charging support and 150grams of weight. Furthermore, the phone is said to have "Just Black", "Clearly White", and "Purple-ish" colour options.

The Pixel 3a XL, on the other hand, is said to have a 6-inch full-HD+ (1080x2160 pixels) with an 18:9 aspect ratio and 402ppi pixel density. It could also weight 170 grams and come in Just Black, Clearly White, and Purple-ish. Additionally, the Pixel 3a XL is claimed to have a Snapdragon 670 SoC and a 3,700mAh battery.

In addition to what has been rumoured on Twitter, Droid Life has reported some of the key features of the Pixel 3a and Pixel 3a XL. The phones are claimed to have an "extraordinary" camera with Google's Night Sight, Portrait Mode, Motion Auto Focus, and unlimited Google Photos storage. Further, the Pixel models are said to support fast charging to deliver seven hours of use in 15 minutes of charge.

The Pixel 3a and Pixel 3a XL are reported to have 12.2-megapixel Dual Pixel cameras, 4GB RAM, 64GB inbuilt storage, 8-megapixel selfie camera, and squeezable Active Edge sensors. It is also said that the phones would come with rear fingerprint sensors and run Android 9 Pie out-of-the-box.

Droid Life has also leaked alleged promo images of the Pixel 3a that highlight Google Assistant integration, Night Sight camera support, and three years of security and OS updates.

Since Google hasn't revealed much about the Pixel 3a and Pixel 3a XL, it is safe to take all the early details with a pinch of salt.

As we mentioned, the Pixel 3a and Pixel 3a XL are expected to go official during Google's I/O keynote on May 7. Online marketplace Flipkart has also already teased their launch in India for May 8.
