Description:
A Google Pixel 9 leak has shared the phone's dimensions, and it could lead to it featuring a bigger screen.

FULL STORY ======================================================================

Leaks continue to tease various design details about the Google Pixel 9a,
with recent rumors hinting at its shape and potential colors . But now we might know the upcoming phones precise size, which could make it bigger than last years Google Pixel 8a .

Tipster @OnLeaks has taken to social media to explain that some previously shared dimensions were apparently a little off, with the precise measurements being 154.7 x 73.2 x 8.9mm (or 9.4mm if you include the rear camera ring in the thickness). This makes the phone as slim as the Google Pixel 8a, but also a little taller and wider (as that device comes in at 152.1 x 72.7 x 8.9mm).

This could suggest the Google Pixel 9a will feature a larger display, though there are a few potential caveats. The first is true for all leaks: anything unofficial should be taken with a pinch of salt, and OnLeaks has already admitted that the older dimensions werent 100% correct.

The other issue is the Google Pixel 9as rumored bezel. We dont yet know how thick this black border will be, and while a larger face likely means a
larger display, the bezel might restrain it. So while a panel that matches
the 6.3-inch Google Pixel 9 isnt impossible, a smaller screen is still
looking likely. What else do we know about the Pixel 9a?

Previous leaks have given us a few more details about the 9a. Itll reportedly come in four colors : Porcelain (off-white), Obsidian (black), Peony (pink), and Iris (bluish-purple). If so, that could be a shame for fans of the Pixel 8as Aloe (green) hue.

There are also rumors that the camera bump will not be present . Not only is it a shame that the Pixel 9a could miss out on this iconic Google Pixel
design detail, the change means the camera components could be taking up more space in the main body. So theres a possibility that the Pixel 9a will need
to make do with a smaller battery.

That said, with the Tensor G4 chipsets improved power efficiency over the G3 (the chip found in the Google Pixel 8a) the Google Pixel 9A could end up having the same battery life, even if its battery capacity is smaller assuming it is indeed equipped with the G4 as expected.
