• A new leak has revealed that the Pixel 9a could get a massive battery upgrade.
• The upcoming device could feature a 5,000mAh battery, about the same size as the top-end Pixel 9 Pro XL.

Google is expected to launch its next Pixel A series device around March next year, but we’ve already seen several leaks about the Pixel 9a. Over the last few weeks, we’ve learned that the next-gen budget phone from Google could feature a refreshed camera island design and pack the same 48MP primary camera as the Pixel 9 Pro Fold. Now, a new report suggests that the Pixel 9a could also pack a much larger battery.

Although Google has dramatically improved its Pixel A series devices in almost all aspects over the last few years, the devices haven’t received a notable bump in battery capacity since 2021. The Pixel 5a was the last model to pack a significantly larger battery than its predecessor, with all subsequent releases hovering around the 4,500mAh mark. That could change with the upcoming Pixel 9a, as sources familiar with Google’s plans have told Android Headlines that the device will feature a 5,000mAh battery.
