The anticipation of Google’s Pixel 10A is building, although the Pixel 9a has just been officially unveiled.
Since Google is said to be all its mid-range telephone for 2026, speculation is a lot about the release date, prices and what the phone will offer in terms of functions and specifications.
Here is everything we know so far.
When will the Google Pixel 10a be released?
The Mid-Range Pixel phones from Google are usually launched in a predictable annual cycle. However, the Pixel 9a was unveiled in March 2025 and the release date was then immediately postponed until April.
Android headlines suggest that this is a new permanent release schedule for Pixel A telephones, which means that the Pixel 10a would be expected in March 2026.
As a reminder, here are the start dates of the previous models:
How much does the Google Pixel 10A cost?
There is no official word about prices for the Pixel 10A, but it is expected that it will remain competitive in the middle class market. Previous Pixel A models are usually priced between £ 349/$ 349 and £ 499/$ 499 at the launch.
However, the Android Authority report indicates that cost -saving measures, such as possibly the use of an older processor, can help maintain Google or even lower the price of the Pixel 10A compared to its predecessors.
If Google decides to use the Tensor G4 processor instead of the newer Tensor G5, this can significantly influence the price strategy, making the Pixel 10A affordable for its target group.
Eventually expect at least the same starting price of £ 499/$ 499, as it stays since the Pixel 8a.

What specifications and functions does the Google Pixel 10A have?
Although details about the Pixel 10A are scarce, some early rumors offer hints about what the device can offer.
Design
The Pixel 10A will probably follow the new design language of Google for the Pixel A-telephones, throw the camera bar of the Pixel 8A and replace it with a small camera section that is almost the same with the back of the telephone (shown below).

The phone can also retain the premium metal and glass structure of Pixel 9A, plus an IP68 rating. In terms of colors, Google likes to change every year, but Obsidian (black) and porcelain (gray) finishes are certain.
Reproduction
The Pixel 9A has a 6.3-inch Full HD+ (1080 x 2424) Poled display with a refresh rate of 120Hz and peak clearance of 2700 nits. An optical fingerprint sensor is also embedded in the screen.
The Pixel 10A can follow, but everything behind it would probably be reserved for the flagship Pixel 10 models.
Performance
One of the most discussed aspects of the Pixel 10A is the processor. The report from Android Authority suggests that Google is considering a stripped version of the Tensor G5 chip, which will set the Pixel 10 series of power, or reused the older Tensor G4 of the Pixel 9a.
If the Tensor G4 is chosen, this could mean that the Pixel 10a would miss part of the advanced AI and camera functions that were engaged by the newer G5. Although this can help control the costs, it can also make the device less attractive than some middle reasons in the same price range.

The Pixel 9As Tensor G4 is linked to 8 GB RAM and 128 or 256 GB Non-Expandable Storage. We expect the Pixel 10A to contain at least the same configurations.
Cameras
The A-series telephones from Google are known for their excellent cameras, which often punch above their weight in terms of image quality. Although specific details about the camera setup of the Pixel 10A are not available, it probably contains a dual camera system, with a main wide-angle lens and an ultra-wide lens.
As a reminder, the standard Pixel 9A has a 48MP main camera (identical to the Pixel 9 Pro Fold), a 13MP ultra -wide camera and a 13MP selfie camera, so we can expect a comparable arrangement.
Battery and charging
The lifespan of the battery on the Pixel 10A will be crucial, especially if the device uses older hardware, which can be less power -efficient. The Pixel 9A has a larger 5100 mAh battery with support for 23W Wired Charging, and it is very likely that the Pixel 10a will have the same specifications.
Wireless charging is probably also available on the Pixel 10A, because 7.5W Qi Wireless Charging made its debut on the Pixel A series with the Pixel 9a.
Software
The Pixel 10A is expected to be launched with the latest version of Android, probably Android 16, but it depends on the release date.
As with all pixel devices, users can anticipate a clean, bloatware-free software experience, together with classes leading seven years OS and security updates.
