Pixel 9a leaks in Galaxy S25 Edge leak because why not

We’ve had Pixel phones leak in the back of rideshares and various forms of public transit, but the latest pre-release look at the Pixel 9a comes from a separate leak about the Galaxy S25 Edge.

Someone on YouTube posted a “Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge Camera Samples” Short today. The video has since been removed, but for a few seconds we randomly saw a black — presumably “Obsidian” — Pixel 9a. 

We saw the back of the 2025 mid-ranger, with the “G” logo confirming that this is final hardware rather than a prototype, like in September’s leak.

It might just be the zoom-level (or the quality of Samsung’s early hardware/software) and bad lighting, but the chamfered edge between the side rail and back plate seems a bit more pronounced — if not flatter and larger/wider — than the retail renders that have previously emerged.

Meanwhile, this short clip provides a good look at the pill-shaped camera and its minimal bump. (The flash cutout looks rather large next to it.)

This leak-ception is certainly unexpected as the rumored Pixel 9a launch nears
