According to the latest report, Google’s next mid-range smartphone may not be so mediocre, at least in terms of specifications, it is expected to use the same flagship body and hardware.
Moreover, @Digital Chat Station previously revealed that Google is developing a new model that will use the same Tensor G2 chip as Google’s Pixel 7 series.

While the phone looks more like a flagship model, 9to5Google believes it’s the Pixel 7a because it has a similar camera arrangement to the “Lynx,” which is rumored to be the codename for the next Pixel A-series device.
In terms of the body, Google Pixel 7a may usher in a major upgrade. The Pixel 7a is said to be expected to have a ceramic body, while the Pixel 6a and previous models will only have a plastic back (the Pixel 5a is aluminum).
In addition to this, there is also news that the next generation of devices will support wireless charging, which is not common in very cheap Android phones such as the Pixel A series.
The Pixel 7a will also allegedly feature flagship-grade cameras, including the Samsung GN1 sensor, which is the same 50MP sensor found on the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro.
In addition, the phone is also expected to be equipped with a telephoto lens of Sony IMX787 and IMX712 for ultra-wide angle. For the front camera, the device is expected to feature an IMX712 sensor.
As usual, the above specs are usually the same as Google’s flagship phones, so these revelations make us wonder if the Google Pixel 7a will still be as “cheap” as previous models.
