Google's annual developer conference is finally here. It is the classic event in which we receive the latest news about the company's software products, such as Android 13, although we have also had hardware news. On this occasion, we are talking about the new Pixel 6a, an affordable —and therefore shortened— proposal to the Pixel 6 family presented in the fall of 2021.
The successor to the Pixel 5a maintains the feature that marks the unique identity seal of these devices: its camera. It also launches the SoC developed by the Mountain View company, Google Tensor, which will open the door, not only to take advantage of all the processing power, but also of artificial intelligence. Let's see the details of this new mid-range smartphone that hits the market.
