Summary
Google’s next budget Pixel is tipped to pair a MediaTek M90 modem with a Tensor G6 chip, extending earlier leaks with a fuller hardware picture ahead of launch.
The modem change would move Google away from Samsung hardware that previous Pixel models relied on and that had drawn criticism for performance issues.
Leaked specs also point to a 6.3-inch AMOLED display with 60-120Hz refresh rate, 3,350-nit peak brightness, 8GB of RAM and a Titan M3 security chip.
Battery capacity is said to fall to 4,870mAh from the Pixel 10a, though improved efficiency from the new chips could offset the smaller pack.
The report also says the Pixel 11a will get a larger selfie camera, while Google is set to unveil the main Pixel 11 lineup on August 12.
