Pixel 6a case first impressions
Digital Trends
A phone case manufacturer, Poetic sent Digital Trends a Pixel 6a case, compared to the Pixel 6 the phone is:
- slightly smaller by a few milimetres
- has a smaller camera bump by ± 1/3 (14-16mm vs 21mm)
The Pixel 6a features an in-display fingerprint sensor instead of a physical one featured on the 5a as suggested by the placement of the fingerprint sensor sticker on the frame with the screen protector.
As any other Pixel, the 6a features the Google styled volume/power buttons layout with both of them on the right hand side.

Google silently releases the Android 13 Beta 1 for Android TV
Android Police | Mishaal Rahman
Few days after releasing the Android 13 Beta 1 for Pixel devices, Google has decided to release a version of it for Android TV.
There aren't many changes found in it besides support for varying content aspect ratios when viewing picture-in-picture windows and a new low-power mode but we might hear more about it during the Google I/O keynote in few days.
So far it is only available on the Google ADT-3 dev box, or Android Studio emulator just like the Android 12 TV Beta.

New Pixel smartphone being tested in India
stufflistings
According to Mukul Sharma (stufflistings), a well known leaker there are undergoing tests of a Pixel smartphone in India, possibly the Pixel 6a!
Google India might try to get some sales from people trying to upgrade from the now two year old Pixel 4a as it's the last officially sold Google Pixel device there.

Pixel 6a near its release, production began right before Google I/O
stufflistings
According to rumors, the Pixel 6a has started it's production in multiple Asian countries.
What interesting is in this leak though, is the usage of (NFC) next to the device name which could mean the lack of a 5G modem in the device (hopefully it's going to be better than the one in Pixel 6)
In a tweet below, Mukul has stated that Google will be distributing the phone in Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore and possibly India adding two new countries with official sales of Pixel devices.

ChromeOS 101 is rolling out on the stable channel with few changes.
9To5Google
Changelog:
- Brand new dark boot screen featuring a white Chrome logo followed by “chromeOS.” Besides the night-friendly background change, note the lack of a space.
- Brand new Firmware Updates menu (in Settings > About Chrome OS). It replaces how accessory updates on Chromebooks previously occurred automatically in the background. That approach led to some issues, and this new UI is meant to address upgrades that take longer periods of time
- Linux Subsystem uses Debian 11 (bullseye) over Debian 10 (buster). You can upgrade it in settings
- Network-based recovery for restoring ChromeOS without a USB Image of it made from a different device
- The floating launcher is now seen for some users, if you don't have it use
