Google is developing a more cheap Pixel 7 variant. The smartphone, which is rumoured to be called the Google Pixel 7a, has recently been the subject of various leaks and rumours. A story from 9to5Mac has been added to the lengthy list. Google claims to have learnt of a Pixel gadget with the codename 'Lynx.' It claims that the gadget might be a Google Pixel 7a.

The smartphone is expected to make its debut in 2023. The magazine claims that the upcoming, reasonably priced Pixel 7a phone will be 'much more premium' than the Pixel - A series phones from the past. The story uses a leak from Digital Chat Station that claims the Pixel 7a series may be equipped with the Google Tensor G2 processor manufactured by the business itself. The Google Pixel 7 and 7 Pro also use the same chipset, for comparison.

The Pixel 7a phone is rumoured to include a triple camera setup on the back for optics. According to 9to5Google, the back camera system will use the same Samsung GN1 sensor, which debuted in the Pixel 6 series and has a 1/1.3-inch aperture and 50MP camera. The Sony IMX787 (1/1.3-inch, 64MP sensor) for telephoto and the Sony IMX712 (unknown size, 13MP sensor) for ultrawide may be used with this. It is also anticipated that the front camera sensor will be used for selfies.

The Pixel 7a (codenamed Lynx) is also rumoured to have wireless charging. The Lynx Pixel 7a may use a 'P9222' chip for wireless charging, which was initially noticed by Android researcher Kuba Wojciechowski. It is possible that the phone may only enable wireless charging for up to 5watt.
