Google's Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, Pixel 9 Pro XL, and Pixel 9 Pro Fold were launched in August last year. The Pixel 9a is now expected to hit shelves soon as an affordable latecomer to the lineup. Several leaks have already surfaced, suggesting its design, camera, and battery specifications. Now, a new report reveals the launch date of the Pixel 9a. Google has unveiled its Pixel A series models at its annual Google I/O event in May in the previous years. The new leak however indicates that Pixel 9a will land earlier than usual, with pre-orders starting mid-March.
Android Headlines citing unnamed sources reports that Google will start pre-orders for Pixel 9a on March 19. The phone will reportedly ship a week later on March 26. It is said to be available in stores on the same date.
The newly rumoured launch date suggests that Google may change its pattern of launching Pixel A series phones in May. Previous models like Pixel 8a and Pixel 7a were unveiled during the Google I/O events in May.
