About Google Pixel 6a
The Pixel 6a brought Google's flagship Tensor chip to a much more affordable price point, pairing it with a dual 12.2MP main and 12MP ultrawide camera system carried over from the Pixel 5a generation rather than the newer 50MP sensor on the Pixel 6. It kept a compact 6.1-inch OLED display and added the Titan M2 security coprocessor. It launched in Chalk, Charcoal, and Sage.
