Google Pixel 4a could go on sale starting May 22: Report

Google was tipped to launch the Pixel 4a at the Google I/O 2020. Although the Google annual developer conference has been cancelled, Google is still expected to launch the Pixel 4a. According to a new report, the affordable Google Pixel smartphone will go on sale in international markets starting May 22.

Internal documents of Vodafone Germany have been accessed by German website Caschys Blog, which reveal that the Pixel 4a will go on sale in the country starting May 22, reported Android Police. It is being speculated that the smartphone will be available on the same date in the US and other markets, based on Google’s history with the Pixel 3a launch date.

Google was scheduled to host the Google I/O 2020 between May 12 and May 14, where it was also expected to launch the Pixel 4a. Previously, Google launched the Pixel 4 on October 15 and started taking pre-orders immediately, followed by shipping starting October 24 in several markets, including the US and Germany. Since Pixel 3a buyers in Germany were able to get their devices on the same date as the US, May 22 could mark the international release date for Pixel 4a.

Almost everything about the Pixel 4a is out in the form of rumours and speculative reports. Previously, an alleged Google Pixel 4a leaked video revealed all the specifications of the device.
