We already know that Google is going to announce two new devices in two different segments, the first one is the 5G variant of recently announced Pixel 4a and the second one is the next-generation Pixel, i.e., Pixel 5. A few weeks ago we had the renders of Pixel 5, now today, a user on Reddit shared an image showing both the Google Pixel 4a 5G & the Pixel 5 placed side-by-side. Not only this, but the user also shared the full specifications of both the devices.
The original thread was taken down from Reddit, for some unknown reasons, but thanks to TechDroider on Twitter, we have got the screen snap showing all the details.
This is the Google Pixel 4A 5G and Pixel 5

Google Pixel 5 and Pixel 4a 5G Specifications
The very very first thing that you’re getting to notice is that the Pixel 4a 5G is bigger in size compared to the Pixel 5 thanks to a much bigger display. But both the phones look precisely the same from the rear. Both have dual cameras placed during a square-shaped camera module & a rear-facing fingerprint scanner.
Talking about the specifications, the Google Pixel 4a 5G features a 60Hz OLED panel with the dimensions around 6.1-inch & the Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G 5G SOC. there’s 6GB RAM, a 3,800mAh battery, 8 Megapixel front-facing camera & a dual-camera setup on the rear. This dual-camera setup includes a primary 12.2 Megapixel camera paired with an ultrawide camera. the rear is formed of plastic & there’s 3.5mm headphone jack.
Google Pixel 5 has an equivalent chipset & also an equivalent camera setup. It lacks a 3.5mm headphone jack but gets a much bigger 4,000mAh battery. Also, the display comes with a 90Hz refresh rate & there’s 8GB RAM. The display size is around 5.7-5.8-inches.
While we couldn’t find any authenticity of the live photo and by extension the specs posted by the Redditor, the knowledge does mostly line up with the recent CAD renders of the Pixel 4a 5G, the CAD renders of the Pixel 5, and a recent report from Android Central detailing the partial specs of the Pixel 5.
But, we do have some more information to share on the Pixel 4a 5G, because of leaker OnLeaks together with 91Mobiles. Previously OnLeaks shared CAD renders showing the upcoming device, and from that publication, we can say that it might have the display measuring between 6.1 to 6.2″ diagonally with one hole-punch cutout, will have dimensions measuring 153.9 x 74.0 x 8.6mm (9.5mm in thickness including the camera bump), a plastic unibody, a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner, dual rear cameras housed during a rectangular camera bump, and a 3.5mm headphone jack at the highest.
At rock bottom, we will see the USB Type-C port and what seems like two cutouts: One is probably going for a bottom-firing speaker while the opposite is for a microphone. the 2 cutouts at rock bottom are likely for symmetry, therefore the second speaker will likely be the earpiece speaker located at the highest bezel. just like the Pixel 4 and Pixel 5, the Pixel 4a 5G also has an LED flash and another sensor within the rectangular camera bump, which is probably going the spectral and flicker sensor.
