A report from last week revealed the complete specifications of the upcoming Pixel 5a 5G, a mid-range Pixel phone from Google ahead of Google Pixel 6 launch later this fall. Now the images of Pixel 5a components have surfaced. This matches with the earlier renders, and it said to offer a rubber-like matte finish back and will retain the 3.5mm audio jack.
It also reveals a 4,680 mAh battery, the largest battery of any Pixel to date, but the Pixel 6 Pro that comes out later this year is said to pack a 5000mAh battery.

Even though earlier rumours said that the Pixel 5a 5G will launch on August 26th, the new rumours point to August 17th launch date, which is just 1 day away. It is rumoured to be priced at $450 (Rs. 33,345 approx.) compared to $349 price tag of the Pixel 4a 4G.
Back in April, Google confirmed that the Pixel 5a will be limited to US and Japan only, so it is not clear if this has changed now.
