Google Pixel 10a Unveiled in Striking ‘Indigo’ Color Ahead of Launch
As the tech community eagerly anticipates the release of Google’s Pixel 10a, recent leaks have unveiled official-looking images showcasing the device in a captivating blue hue, reminiscent of the Indigo color introduced with the Pixel 10. This revelation has sparked intrigue, as earlier reports had suggested the Pixel 10a would be available in Obsidian (black), Fog (off-white), Lavender (purple), and Berry (red/pink).
The images, shared by renowned leaker Evan Blass (@evleaks), depict the Pixel 10a in various scenarios, emphasizing its hardware design, water resistance capabilities, integration within the Pixel ecosystem, and display features. Notably, the images also highlight software functionalities such as Gemini Live and the Hold for Me feature in the Phone app.
The emergence of the Indigo colorway raises questions about the previously reported Lavender option. It’s plausible that earlier information may have conflated the two, or that Lavender was a placeholder for this deep blue/purple shade. This development also casts doubt on prior descriptions of the Pixel 10a’s color palette, especially those characterizing the purple variant as a gentle purple, which contrasts with the deeper tone observed in the leaked images.
Adding to the intrigue, another recent leak has purportedly revealed the Berry color variant of the Pixel 10a. However, the source of this information remains unverified, prompting caution among enthusiasts and analysts alike.
The Pixel 10a’s design appears to maintain the aesthetic established by its predecessor, the Pixel 9a. Early render leaks suggest a continuation of the camera bar-free design, aligning with Google’s commitment to a sleek and minimalist form factor.
In terms of pricing and availability, reports indicate that the Pixel 10a will retain the pricing structure of its predecessor, with the 128GB model priced at €549 and the 256GB variant at €649 in France. Pre-orders are expected to commence on February 18, 2026, with the official release slated for March 5, 2026.
The Pixel 10a is also anticipated to introduce new accessories, including the Google Pixel Buds 2a available in colors such as Hazel, Strawberry, Iris, and Fog Light. Additionally, a new Google Pixel Wireless Charger is rumored to accompany the device, further enhancing the Pixel ecosystem.
As the launch date approaches, the tech community remains abuzz with speculation and excitement. The unexpected Indigo colorway adds an element of surprise, reflecting Google’s willingness to experiment with its design palette. Whether this color will be officially named Indigo or Lavender remains to be seen, but it undoubtedly adds to the anticipation surrounding the Pixel 10a’s debut.
