Google has today officially launched the new flagship Pixel 5 and Pixel 4a 5G. There’s not much that will surprise you about the new phones, considering almost everything about them had been leaked beforehand. However, we now have official pricing, confirmations on the specifications, and availability information for the new Google phones.
Starting off with the flagship (of sorts), the Pixel 5 is almost exactly what we expected it to be. It comes with a fresh new, design with a punch hole camera up front for selfies. There’s a 6-inch 2340×1080 pixel display with 90Hz refresh rate and finally, the Pixel has a full-screen design with no forehead or chin.
In terms of camera hardware, the Pixel 5 comes with a 12.2MP primary rear camera with OIS and EIS alongside the new 16MP ultra-wide lens. On the front, you get an 8MP selfie shooter.
The company also launched the 5G version of the Pixel 4a today. Not only does the new phone offer 5G, it also changes a few hardware specs as compared to its older, and lower priced sibling.
Meanwhile, you get the same 6GB RAM + 128GB storage on the Pixel 4a 5G, but there’s a larger 3,885mAh battery on board. Notably, unlike the Pixel 5, the Pixel 4a 5G doesn’t support wireless charging, reverse wireless charging, or an IP rating for that matter.
