In other words: if the midrange Pixel 4A isnt enough for you, you only have a number of months to wait to discover out more about the higher-specced Pixel 5 and 5G-capable 4A.
Its a short lived leakage and could well be some sort of error, however an October 8th preorder makes good sense. Google regularly announces new hardware in October, offering us the Pixel 4 on October 15th in 2019, the Pixel 3 on October 9th in 2018, and the Pixel 2 on October 4th in 2017. Because hold-ups to the Pixel 4A have led it to reveal the Pixel 5 and Pixel 4A 5G early, theres no reason to believe the company will alter this pattern just. And to top everything, an unrelated set of leaked files from Google likewise identified by 9to5Google notes that the Pixel 5 and Pixel 4A 5G are set for an October launch.

The inadvertent leak was reported by 9to5Google, after a reader identified the preorder date for the Pixel 5 and Pixel 4A 5G pointed out in the official Pixel 4A announcement post from Google France. That reference has actually since been deleted from the post (though can be seen in the cached page), with Google using 9to5Google no further talk about the issue.
A now-deleted sentence from a Google France blog post suggests that the Pixel 5 and Pixel 4A 5G will be available to preorder on October 8th. The two phones were announced today along with the Pixel 4A (which is readily available to preorder now) however Google has yet to share main preorder dates for the handsets, only stating theyre “coming this fall.”
