Google likely to unveil mid-range Pixel 5a phone soon

Earlier in the year, speculations were rife that Google would launch mid-range Pixel 5a in June. But, it couldn't materialise as the world was struck with the second wave of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Now, a new report has emerged that Pixel 5a may finally make its debut soon. Android Police has discovered three Google devices on the FCC (Federal Communications Commissions) database.

Though there is no specific mention of Pixel 5a, the model number (G1F8F) of one variant matches with previous versions launched in the US. So, it is believed that the other two are headed for the international markets.

With the Coronavirus infection rate slowing in several regions including India, there is a strong possibility that Pixel 5a is expected to make its official debut as early as next month.

Even the previous time too, Google faced a similar dilemma for Pixel 4a in 2020 for the same reason and was forced to postpone the launch from May to August.
