Washington (USA): Following the launch of Pixel 5a (5G), tech giant Google has recently indicated that the company is discontinuing two other Pixel devices: the Pixel 4A 5G and the Pixel 5.
As per The Verge, both the models are currently listed on Google's online store as sold out, and it is being speculated that the remaining stock at other retailers likely won't last long.
Google's spokesperson said in a statement: "With our current forecasts, we expect Google Store in the US to sell out of Pixel 4a (5G) and Pixel 5 in the coming weeks following the launch of Pixel 5a (5G). These products will continue to be available through some partners while supplies last."
The decision to discontinue Pixel 4A 5G makes sense after the company launched the model's successor -- Pixel 5A 5G -- but the company is yet to launch a successor to the Pixel 5 which the company has discontinued long before the Pixel 6's arrival this fall.
As per the last trends of Google, the company had also discontinued the Pixel 4 and 4 XL less than a year after their introduction.
Google has also recently revealed that it will ship its upcoming flagship smartphones, the Pixel 6 and the Pixel 6 Pro, without a charger in the box.
