The launch of theGoogle Pixel 8ahas all but been confirmed by a fresh FCC listing .
Google ’s next mid - range of mountains smartphone has made anappearanceat the Federal Communications Commission ( FCC ) , which is the US autonomous telecommunication regulator . Every connected equipment that ’s sell in the land has to work through this representation first , so it ’s a reliable source of pre - launch smart equipment information .
In this subject , four newfangled Google machine were submitted to the FCC on Monday with the model number G8HHN , GKV4X , G6GPR , and G576D. They ’re all list as phones , and are variants of one another rather than distinct models , likely cover the various 5 G configurations .
None of these are explicitly advert to as the Pixel 8a , but there ’s really nothing else they could be . Besides , the ‘ G6GPR ’ code already appeared on a leaked Pixel 8a retail boxwood back in January .
pay that thePixel 7alaunched on May 10 last year , it would make sensory faculty that Google is making the final preparations for announce its heir . That Pixel 7a launching occurred at Google I / O 2023 , of course , so we ’re expecting Google to do the same this year . The companyrecently announcedthat Google I / O 2024 would be taking place on May 14 .
In term of the Pixel 8a ’s conformation , we ’re expecting a equipment with loosely the same dimensions as the Pixel 7a that run on the same Tensor G3 flake as the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 professional . That chip ’s second - level functioning level should make a lot more sense in a mid - priced gimmick .
Talking of which , we also hear earlier this month that the Pixel 8a could be set to receive asignificant price rise , possibly dispatch around £ 500 ( from the Pixel 7a ’s £ 449 ) .
