The new Google Pixel 9 seems to be in development and recently, some leaks of the new Pixel 9 have already stirred the technology world by revealing some of the certain aspects of the features, the look and feel, and the probable price levels. The latest information reveals four models in the lineup: Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, Pixel 9 Pro XL, and the Pixel 9 Pro Fold. Such leaks have received much attention in the recent past partly due to Samsung's Unpacked event recently held, people are eager to know what Google has in store for them.

Detailed Look at Design and Size

The leaks more recently provide an idea about the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro XL, comparing their size and the main aspects about the design. The leds given about the Pixel 9 include: The Pixel 9 is expected to feature a 6.24 inch front display, while the Pixel 9 Pro XL is going to feature a slightly big 6.73-inch display. These dimensions place the Pixel 9 Pro XL systematically below the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra; the latter has a 6. 8-inch screen.

However, due to the difference in the form factor, the Galaxy S24 Ultra has a more imposing look being a larger phone.

 In terms of design, one finds a matte back panel of the Pixel 9 Pro XL unlike the glossy back of the Pixel 9. However, on the frames, the situation is opposite, but it could not be otherwise since Pixel 9 Pro XL has glossy edges, and the Pixel 9 has matte ones. Such slight differences are characteristic of models and give consumers a choice of aesthetic tastes when selecting gadgets.

Camera Innovations and Features

Another strong suit of the Pixel 9 Pro XL is the camera system that is very effective with the advanced features. At the back, three cameras are integrated into one cut-out on the camera bar and there is an LED flash and a temperature sensor. This construction is expected to unleash improvement in the photographic functionalities, especially for those, who give importance to the quality of the captured images.

Also, this device has the Ultra-Wideband (UWB), which is missing in the base model - Pixel 9 Pro. It is characterized by a higher level of precision in terms of location identification together with enhanced communication with other devices.

Early Made by Google Event

Going up against the tradition, Google has shifted the Made by Google event to August 13 from October as it is usual. This strategic decision was to release new devices in the late summer , a relatively low key time for the tech industry which creates new buzz and stops people getting bored of hearing about the next technological marvel. The earlier release of the Pixel 9 series is intended to sustain the generation's interest and allow Google to seize the public's focus before the arrival of the technologically intense autumn period.
