However, some are still hoping that Google unveiled the Pixel 4a of this month of may, even if there is no conference Google I/O.
Unfortunately, this is increasingly unlikely. In fact, according to the site Android Authority, a new leak published by the German website Cashys Blog (who would have discovered information on a database of the operator Vodaphone), the Pixel 4a would be released on 5 June.
This date suggests that Google could submit its new smartphone mid-range during the event of presentation of the public beta of Android 11. Indeed, given that the conference Google I/O has been cancelled, Google plans to unveil new features of its mobile operating system during an online event, 3 June.

We hope that you will join us for # Android11: The Beta Launch Show, your opportunity to discover what’s new in Android from people who have built Android “, one reads in the official announcement. And obviously, a new smartphone for mid-range could be part of the innovations that Google reserves for this event.
