The Google Pixel 9 series marks one of the most significant upgrades we've seen from the brand in recent years. This year, all devices have undergone a major design overhaul and received a powerful new chipset, with a few additional models added to the lineup.
Introducing the new 'XL' and Fold Pro models, which now take the place of the previous Pixel 8 Pro as the top-tier options in the range. The Fold Pro is an entirely new foldable design, while the XL serves as a direct successor to the Pixel 8 Pro, featuring a larger display compared to the standard model. The latest Pixel 9 Pro maintains the same form factor as the standard Pixel 9 but includes all the exclusive features of the Pro line.
Equipped with the new Tensor G4 chipset, the Pixel 9 Pro models come with 16GB of RAM, a new 42MP front camera, and enhanced video capabilities like super zoom and 8K recording. These features are available on both the 6.8-inch Pro XL and the 6.3-inch Pro, allowing you to choose between a larger phone and a more pocket-friendly option.
The standard Google Pixel 9 features a 6.3-inch display, the new Tensor G4 chipset, a 48MP ultra-wide lens, and a display that's 35% brighter than before. It also boasts an improved battery with increased capacity and faster charging. This upgrade is significant enough to position the standard model as a serious flagship contender in its own right.
All Google Pixel 9 devices come with seven years of guaranteed updates and emphasize AI integration through Google's new Gemini assistant. Gemini assists with everything from daily planning to translation, with the Pixel 9-exclusive feature 'Pixel Screenshots' being a standout addition.
