At a glance
Pixel 4a will adopt a punch-hole design
Google's second budget phone, the Pixel 4a, will feature an in-trend punch-hole display and thinner bezels to ditch the forehead design of the flagship Pixel 4 as well as its radar-based face recognition.
On the rear, the polycarbonate body will house a Pixel 4-like square camera arrangement and a physical fingerprint scanner. Interestingly, the top section will offer a headphone jack as well.
Information
Single front and rear cameras
As a scaled-back offering, the Pixel 4a will sport a single rear camera as opposed to the dual-lens unit we saw on the flagship model. On the front, it will offer a single selfie snapper. However, the specs are unknown as of now.

What else do we know about the Pixel 4a?
Under the hood, the Pixel 4a is expected to pack a mid-range Qualcomm Snapdragon processor. However, it remains to be seen if Google will opt for a 600-series or a more advanced 700-series chip.
Further, it is said to come with a 5.8-inch screen, 64GB of storage, and a near 3,000mAh battery, which should support 18W fast charging via a USB Type-C port.
Information
When will Pixel 4a launch?
Google was expected to launch the Pixel 4a at its annual I/O conference later this year in May. However, the event has been canceled due to the COVID-19 outbreak. So, the company could now announce the handset sometime in Q2 2020 in a low-key manner.
