Pixel 6a Catches Fire While Charging Once Again: What Is The Problem?
Pixel 6a catching fire has been a regular event which will be a concern for Google ahead of the Pixel 10 launch next month. Google's Pixel 6a issues continue and another case of the Pixel phone catching fire has made the headlines this week. The worrying part of the incidents is that Google has been aware of the problems facing the Pixel 6a battery and has even issued a free replacement of the units affected. But the latest news about a Pixel 6a catching fire while charging do send the alarm bells ringing once again at the search giant. The new Pixel 6a fire issue has been reported by a user from India, who shared the gruesome details about the device getting burned and how it happened. Pixel 6a On Fire, Not Good The user posted the images of the charred Pixel 6a lying on the bed, and shared them on X along with the charging cable that has burned and some damages to the bed as well where it was kept. The user says the phone was charged using the original adapter and cable, and he had kept the device for charging overnight near his bed side. Pixel 6a users have been warned by Google about a major issue with the battery that can be only fixed by reducing its charging hold and capacity. Google started reaching out to the affected owners and asking them to get the Pixel 6a battery replaced free of cost. They have to visit the nearest Google service centre to avail this program. The company has seen most of these fire incidents caused by Pixel 4a or Pixel 6a models and their batteries seem to be the culprit. However, Google seems to have fixed these recurring issues with the other Pixel phones launched since then, but the company should look to avoid similar incidents for its premium lineup, especially when the fire events happen so regularly. More importantly, the Google Pixel 10 series is launching in the next few weeks, and the last thing Google needs is an outburst around the Pixel 6a battery issues. view comments First Published: July 31, 2025, 08:15 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Leak reveals Pixel 10 prices, and they're exactly what we hoped for
TL;DR The prices for the entire Google Pixel 10 series have leaked. It appears there won't be any price increases this year. However, the Pixel 10 Pro XL may have a new starting price. A question we have long had about the Pixel 10 series is whether there will be a price hike. With the ongoing tariff situation, there seemed to be a good chance that we could see higher prices. Those fears may have been put to rest, however, after the most recent Pixel 10 leak. The prices of the entire Pixel 10 line may have been revealed in a new report from Android Headlines. The report provides prices for each storage option for every model. It even includes how much the series will cost in Canada. Here's what we can expect to pay: Pixel 10 128GB: $799 ($1,099 CAD) 256GB: $899 ($1,229 CAD) Pixel 10 Pro 128GB: $999 ($1,349 CAD) 256GB: $1,099 ($1,479 CAD) 512GB: $1,219 ($1,649 CAD) 1TB: $1,449 ($1,949 CAD) Pixel 10 Pro XL 256GB: $1,199 ($1,629 CAD) 512GB: $1,319 ($1,799 CAD) 1TB: $1,549 ($2,099 CAD) Pixel 10 Pro Fold 256GB: $1,799 ($2,399 CAD) 512GB: $1,919 ($2,569 CAD) 1TB: $2,149 ($2,869 CAD) The good news is that it looks like Google will be keeping the prices the same as last year. The bad news is that it appears the tech giant has dropped the 128GB version of the Pixel 10 Pro XL. That means the Pixel 10 Pro XL has a new starting price, despite the 256GB model costing the same as before. Along with a Pixel 10 purchase, the outlet says Google is offering up to six months of its AI Pro plan, six months of Fitbit Premium, and three months of YouTube Premium. This isn't the only Pixel 10 series news we received this week. Just a day ago, we were treated to a leak that revealed that the Pixel 10 series could have true Qi2 support. Google is expected to launch its next generation of Pixel devices on August 20. Follow

Google Pixel 10 vs Pixel 9a: Main differences to expect
Can you believe we're about to get our 10th generation of Google Pixel phones? Time flies, indeed, and on August 20, Google will unveil the Pixel 10 range, which will once again consist of four devices: the Pixel 10 Pro XL, the Pixel 10 Pro , Pixel 10 Pro Fold, and of course, the base Pixel 10 . The Pixel 10 will score a few important changes, though on the surface, it will remain the same and mostly unchanged base device. All fine and dandy, but Google definitely has a problem. See, there's now a pretty large selection of small-sized and mostly similar Pixel phones that boast identical features and occupy the same entry-level market segment, making it somewhat challenging to upgrade to the Pixel 10 . Chief among these is the Pixel 9a, which is not only one of the best-value Pixel phones but also one of the most often recommended entry-level devices out there. Could the Pixel 10 change that, or not? Pixel 10 vs Pixel 9a expected differences: Table of Contents: Design Display Performance Camera Battery Specs Summary What can we say about the Pixel 10 , aside from it being nearly a carbon copy of the Pixel 9? Sure, there's a 0.1 mm thickness increase likely to accommodate the Qi2 magnets at the rear, as well as a slight weight increase, but overall, the Pixel 10 doesn't differ too much from its predecessor. We get the same aluminum frame and glass back, while the front relies on Corning's Gorilla Glass Victus 2. The Pixel 9a is also quite similar in terms of looks; it's decidedly a Pixel and can't be mistaken for anything else. The affordable Pixel is taller, wider, and thicker, though it's lighter than the Pixel 10 . Both phones employ 6.3-inch screens, but the upcoming flagship is definitely shaping up to be more compact than the Pixel 9a . A big difference between the two is the signature camera strip at the back. The one on the Pixel 9a is mostly flush with the back of the phone and certainly filled us with hope that future Pixels could be similar to that, but alas, the Pixel 10 arrives with a protruding camera island that houses its new triple-camera setup. The Pixel 10 will come in four new colors: Limoncello, Obsidian, Frost, and the most gorgeous new deep-blue color dubbed Indigo. The latter will definitely be the star of the lineup, as it simply looks stunning. Meanwhile, the Pixel 9a is available in Iris, Peony, Obsidian, and Porcelain colors. Display Differences The Pixel 10 scores a slightly larger 6.3-inch OLED Actua display, ever-so-slightly larger than the 6.2-inch one on the previous Pixel 9 . The display is an FHD+ one and will reportedly achieve 2,000 nits of brightness in regular mode and 3,000 nits in HDR mode, on par with the rest of the Pixel 10 phones. The display will reach up to 120Hz, but will likely only go down to 60Hz and not any lower. The screen is protected by Gorilla Glass Victus 2. The Pixel 9a also has a 6.3-inch screen , but significantly larger bezels, normal for an entry-level device. However, the rest of the specs are very similar: FHD+ resolution, OLED technology, 120Hz refresh rate, and up to 2,700 nits of brightness. Pretty good for a $499 phone. For the past few years, Google has relied on its own line of Tensor chips for the Pixel lineup. Though weren't custom ones, though: they were made by Samsung and followed the blueprints for the Exynos line of chips, which sort of limited Google's say on the architecture. Now, with the Tensor G5, Google is turning to TSMC to build its latest chipset. It is a fully custom chip manufactured on a 3nm node, bringing it up to par with most other flagship chipsets out there. We have high expectations of the Tensor G5, which has the potential to make Google's phones significantly better than before. The Pixel 9a , on the other hand, is also powered by the same flagship Tensor G4 chipset that powered the rest of the Pixel 9 series. Built on a 4nm node, this chip was never really about the raw performance in synthetic benchmarks but works pretty well in real life. The Pixel 10 will score 12GB of RAM, a notable increase over the Pixel 9 and the Pixel 9a , both of which feature 8GB of memory. It seems that both the Pixel 10 and Pixel 9a will share the same storage versions: 128GB and 256GB. Android 16 is now Google's latest software that's available for all current Pixels, including the Pixel 9a . The Pixel 10 will also arrive with Android 16 out of the box. However, the most notable feature of Android 16 , the Material 3 Expressive redesign, is coming in early September, most likely along the Pixel 10 launch. After years of dwelling with a dual-camera system, the Pixel 10 is finally scoring a triple-camera system, the first on a base Pixel. The telephoto is reportedly the same 10.8MP unit with 5X optical zoom that was found on the Pixel 9 Pro Fold. Sadly, to fit the telephoto, Google has seemingly resorted to downgrading the rest of the cameras. We get the same 48MP main and 13MP ultrawide cameras, which are reportedly the same ones found on the Pixel 9a as well. As a refresher, last year's Pixel 9 came with more impressive 50MP main and 48MP ultrawide cameras. So, the Pixel 10 is shaping up to be a weird concoction of both the Pixel 9a and the Pixel 9 Pro Fold . To what end? Our camera test will show, but we are far from ecstatic. The Pixel 10 is reportedly coming with a pretty decent 4,970 mAh battery, significantly larger than the Pixel 9 's 4,700 mAh one. This increase could play very well with the hopefully better efficiency of the Tensor G5 chip, so the battery life could score a net gain. Meanwhile, the Pixel 9a came with a 5,100 mAh battery, the largest ever fitted on a Pixel phone. The Pixel 9a had excellent battery life, which fills us with hope about the Pixel 10 's potential battery endurance. Charging-wise, the Pixel 10 is reportedly scoring 29W wired charging and 15W wireless Qi2 charging. The latter will be Qi2 and will possibly come with magnets included, allowing you to attach Google's upcoming PixelSnap line of accessories. The Pixel 9a was more humble in its charging specs: 23W wired and 7.5W wireless speeds definitely favor overnight charging morethan anything else. Here's how the Pixel 10 vs Pixel 9a specs compare: It appears that the Pixel 10 could be an upgrade in many areas, including performance, battery life, and display properties. However, with possible downgrades in the camera where it matters the most, the Pixel 10 makes a hard case for itself. Even though it lacks some premium features, the Pixel 9a still feels like a better deal, given that it will likely still deliver better battery life and similar camera quality. Of course, all rumors here are still subject to change, but so far, it seems that Pixel 9a users should hold on to their devices tight and don't let them go in the wake of the Pixel 10 's arrival.
