The Pixel 6a has been listed on benchmarking website Geekbench, which means that an announcement could be around the corner. A recent report had suggested that the phone will be launched by the end of Q1 2022. Now, let’s take a look at the Geekbench listing.
As per the listing, the Google Pixel 6a will feature the Tensor chipset that the company has developed in-house. The processor features four performance cores and four efficiency cores. It’s coupled with the Mali-G78 GPU and, according to the listing, 6GB RAM.

The Geekbench listing also revealed that the phone will run Android 12 out of the box, which is the latest stable Android release.
