Google Could Revive Last Year’s Bright Pink Color for the Pixel 10a

THE GooglePixel 9a is one of Google’s most affordable Pixel Phonesand it includes one of the most frequently requested colors: hot pink. With the Google Pixel 10a announced to launch in February, we already have an idea of ​​what colors the new model will come in.

According to Roland Quandt, a regular mobile leaker on Bluesky, the Google Pixel is expected to be offered in obsidian (black), berry (pink), fog (light gray), and lavender colors. However, it’s the berry hue that intrigues customers.

A Google representative did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

“I always like seeing phones in bright colors, and that’s especially welcome in more budget-friendly options,” said Abrar Al-Heeti, senior technology reporter at CNET. “Yes, we tend to put a case on our phones anyway, but just knowing that your phone sports a bold color can make it feel like more of a statement piece than a bland piece of tech.”

Pink is one of the most requested color options for Pixel phones. CNET’s sister site Mashable loved the color when it debuted on the Pixel 9. Phone competitors like Apple and Samsung are typically expected to offer a pink color option in their flagship and mid-range phone lineups, so it’s no surprise to see the berry color on the Pixel 10a.

“I will say that Google loves having Pixel phones in pink,” said CNET editor-in-chief Patrick Holland. “The Pixel 9 and 9a come in Peony (a bright, bold pink) and the 9 Pro in Rose Quartz (a more subdued pink). The Pixel 10 series does not have pink tones.”

Quandt also says the Pixel 10a will have 128GB and 256GB storage models and will launch in mid-February. This is earlier than expected compared to the Pixel 9a, unveiled in mid-March 2025 for launch on April 10. In terms of specs, we expect the Pixel 10a to be a modest upgrade over previous generations. According to the leaks, the Pixel 10 is unlikely to feature a newer Tensor G5 chip, and it will likely retain the same overall design as the Pixel 9a.

A leaker, Mystic Leaks on Telegram, expressed disappointment and revealed additional specifications including no telephoto lens, UFS 3.1 storage, Tensor G4 chip, 2000 nits display and no. Magic tailwhich is Google’s AI feature for the Pixel 10.
