Default Google I/O 2019: Pixel 3a, Pixel 3a XL announcement teased for May 7

A new teaser on Google Store hints at “something big coming to Pixel universe” on May 7. It is also the day when Google’s annual developer conference, I/O 2019, kicks off. Over the past few months, we have come across leaks surrounding affordable Pixel smartphones – Pixel 3a and Pixel 3a XL. It is likely that Google will announce both devices at the conference.

The Pixel 3a was also recently leaked on Google’s own website. Being affordable variants of the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL, the new smartphones are expected to offer the same camera performance as the flagship models. However, they will see a downgrade in other areas such as screen resolution, mid-range processor, and plastic build quality.

The store page also has a tagline “help is on the way” which alludes to Avengers: Endgame, where five new superheros are joining the Playmoji AR line-up, and will be available exclusively on Pixel phones via Playground. The new characters include War Machine, Thor, Black Widow, Rocket, and Captain Marvel. They will be joining the existing characters such as Iron Man, Captain America, Hulk, Nebula, and Okoye, and the pack will be called Marvel Studios’ Avengers: Endgame pack, Google said in a blog post.
