@OnLeaks has compared the Pixel 6a with the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro in a new render. The leaker has shown that the Pixel 6a will be Google's smaller alternative to the Pixel 6 series, with the mid-range smartphone slightly larger than the Pixel 4 and Pixel 5.

Earlier today, @OnLeaks revealed renders for the Pixel 6a, reportedly based on leaked CAD files. As discussed separately, @OnLeaks expects the Pixel 6a to arrive with a 6.2-inch display, although it is unclear when Google plans to release the mid-range smartphone.

Nonetheless, it is apparent that Google will bring its Pixel 6 series design language to the Pixel 6a, mirroring the Pixel 5 and Pixel 5a. Now, @OnLeaks has provided a comparison between the Pixel 6a, Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro, showcasing their size differences. Reputedly, the Pixel 6a measures 152.2 x 71.8 x 8.7 mm, making it slightly taller and wider than the Pixel 4 and Pixel 5.

However, @OnLeaks' photo shows that the Pixel 6a will be noticeably smaller than the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro, both large smartphones by Pixel standards. @OnLeaks has also shown the Pixel 6a with three cameras, matching a camera configuration of an unreleased Pixel smartphone on which we reported last month. If the Pixel 6a is 'bluejay', as Mishaal Rahman identified, then it will have three Sony camera sensors, an IMX355, IMX363 and an IMX386.
