Google might not kneecap the Pixel 11a with an old processor

Mystic Leaks suggests that the Pixel 11a will feature a flagship-grade processor, the Tensor G6, which would be an improvement over the previous generation Tensor G4 found in the Pixel 10a. The Tensor G6 is rumored to have the same PowerVR DXT-48-1536 GPU as the G5, but with a better modem, the MediaTek M90, replacing Samsung's Exynos modems. This would be a return to form for the Pixel a lineup, which typically features modern processors while cutting costs in other areas. The upgrade would be a significant improvement over the Pixel 10a, which was disappointing due to its outdated processor.
