Google will certainly give the three colors marketing names that are not yet known. Otherwise, the cell phone looks confusingly similar to its predecessor. On the back you will find two cameras and an LED flash.

Together with 8 gigabytes of LPDDR5 RAM, the phone should enable smooth multitasking. In contrast to the Pixel 6a, this time there will probably also be a variant with a generous storage capacity of 256 gigabytes.
