As per the report, the company said, “Pixel 5a 5G is not canceled. It will be available later this year in the US and Japan and announced in line with when last year’s a-series phone was introduced.” This information was confirmed to 9to5 Google.

While it is great that Google is gearing up to bring the Pixel 4a successor, this may not excite Indian Pixel fans as Google has revealed that the Pixel 5a 5G will head to only two markets: Japan and the US.

To recall, Google launched the Pixel 5 and Pixel 4a 5G last year is select regions and now for the Pixel 5a 5G the list has been further crisped.

Meanwhile, some rumours suggest that the Pixel 6 is coming soon. However, we are unsure of the launch date. Some rumours suggest that the tech giant could announce details related to the upcoming flagship Pixel at I/O 2021 developer conference set to kick off on May 18 and continue until May 20.
