Today, the 9to5Google portal published images that were allegedly taken on the upcoming Google Pixel 5a 5G smartphone. Photos appeared in a certain open album on the Google Photos service. At the time of this writing, access to the album has already been closed.
The fact is that EXIF photos usually contain information about the device, but one of the photos shows only “XXXX” instead of the name of the smartphone.
Judging by the cinema, which is depicted in one of the photos taken on the freeway with the Pixel 4a 5G wide-angle module, the owner of the album that got on the Internet was in Taiwan. It is in this country that Google-branded Android smartphones are produced. Another snapshot from the same album, taken on February 16 this year, also does not contain information about the device. As the journalists of the publication suggest, this photo could have been taken on a test sample of the upcoming novelty.
The Pixel 5a is rumored to have the same design as the Pixel 4a 5G, as well as the Snapdragon 765G chip. The Pixel 5a is expected to use the same camera module as the Pixel 4a 5G – with HDR + support, bracketing, and more. There is no information on the price or release date of the device yet.
