This unintentional cameo, within a video focused on a different device, is a rather unusual way for information about a new phone to surface. It’s not uncommon for details about unreleased tech to leak, but this particular instance highlights the challenge companies face in controlling the flow of information in the digital age. Even seemingly unrelated videos can inadvertently reveal sensitive details.
The timing of this potential Pixel 9a sighting is also intriguing. The phone is expected to launch sometime in March, which is just around the corner. Now that the phone has appeared in a video, will that entice Google to just go ahead and make an announcement, just as they did with the Pixel 4 back in 2019? One can hope.
That said, while the leaked images and video snippets offer a potential glimpse into the Pixel 9a’s design, it’s important to remember that these are still leaks. Nothing is official until Google makes an announcement. However, the fact that the videos were taken down suggests the information was not intended for public viewing at this time. Until then, we have to treat these leaked devices, even as far from being a dummy unit as they look, with a dose of healthy skepticism.
