The hands-on video of the Google Pixel 7a was leaked by a Facebook group a few days back. Most recently, known tipster @chunvn8888 on Twitter claims that Google has locked the rogue prototype unit. Screenshots tweeted by the tipster show the fastboot menu and suggest the RAM and storage capacities of the device. The Google Pixel 7a is said to pack 8GB of DDR5 RAM and 128GB of onboard. If this rumour holds any weight, then it would be an upgrade over Pixel 6a's 6GB memory. The fastboot menu also shows “lynx” codename, which is said to belong to the Pixel 7a.

The hands-on video leaked earlier suggested the complete design of the purported handset with a similar design language to its predecessor, Pixel 6a.
