Digital Chat Station, a Chinese Weibo leaker, claimed that there is a new smartphone from the Pixel lineup will soon arrive for the world, and it will be a small-screen Android phone. There are no names for the new device yet, and the leaker did not claim any title for the upcoming device, but it might be a take on the Google Pixel Mini.
According to the leak, this new smartphone will be a small screen, but it did not exactly reveal the dimensions of the device or any other details which may provide context to this upcoming smartphone.
Android Central's report said that the current smallest phone in the series is the Pixel 6a, sporting a 6.1-inch screen for its display, with speculations that this new Pixel Mini will be smaller compared to it.

Will Pixel Mini be Smaller than the Pixel 6a?
There are no names for the new smaller Pixel smartphone now, but it may be called the Pixel Mini, something which will capture the size and state of the new device. Present rumors speculate whether it would be smaller than the Pixel 6a, also sporting a tinier capacity for its power cell, particularly with the 4,410 mAh on the 6a.
Additionally, its front camera would be seen in the center of the screen, still featuring the punch hole design, along with a Tensor chip to power it, says the leak.
Google's Pixel Smartphones
Google's Pixel gave the world direct access to Android, and it is a smartphone that brings the latest features there is to the famous smartphone's OS. It also centers on providing the public with what Google has to offer, bordering on a minimalistic smartphone that completes the experience for all needs, already with multiple releases in the present.
The latest Google smartphone available for the world is the Pixel 6a, and this release among the variants is known to be the company's take on a budget smartphone for the public, released outside its main lineup.
Pixel's inferiority to other smartphone brands is its Face Unlock which is not available to devices, with rumors of its non-availability to the Pixel 7 surface online.
Pixel only releases two variants for each showcase, with the regular Pixel (i.e. Pixel 7) and a Pro version of the smartphone. It then pushes a budget smartphone coming after almost a year of its release, with the "a" suffix series' availability later on, before the new model arrives. However, this is the first time that leakers claim that there would be a smaller Pixel with an alleged "mini" coming soon.
