Google’s 2020 Pixel lineup may look a bit different than usual if the latest product names found in the company’s Google search app are any indication. Instead of the expected Pixel 5 and Pixel 5 XL monikers, Google is apparently working on a “Pixel 4a (5G)” and a “Pixel 5,” via 9to5Google<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Those two phones were previously discovered under the codenames of “redfin” and “bramble” by XDA-Developers. <\/em>Both were set to offer a Snapdragon 765G processor with built-in 5G support. There was also a third device, codenamed “sunfish,” featuring a Snapdragon 730. But today’s leak confirms which phone names go along with each of those codenames, and it could indicate a big shift for Google’s Pixel strategy this year.<\/p>\n

The last device is the simplest: “sunfish” is the already thoroughly leaked Pixel 4A, which makes sense given Google’s usage of a midrange Qualcomm processor in last year’s Pixel 3A in order to keep costs down. But the Google search app code also reveals that “redfin” and “bramble” — the two Snapdragon 765 phones — are the Pixel 5 and the Pixel 4A (5G), respectively. Also notable: there’s no Pixel 5 XL model listed.<\/p>\n
