As we get closer to Google’s launch event on August 13, we’re starting to see more and more leaks coming out. Including a set of promo images that Onleaks and 91Mobiles have just put out, for the entire Pixel 9 lineup.
These promo images confirm that there will be a Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, Pixel 9 Pro XL and a Pixel 9 Pro Fold – two of which, Google themselves have already confirmed. The Pixel 9 will sport a 6.3-inch display, with the Pro models coming in 6.3 and 6.9-inch sizes, and of course the Pixel 9 Pro Fold will have a 6.3-inch and a 8-inch display. These were all confirmed yesterday, in other leaks.
The entire lineup will also sport the Tensor G4 chipset, with 16GB of RAM across the board – with the exception of Pixel 9, which will be 12GB. The Pixel 9 Pro models are getting a whopping 42-megapixel front-facing camera, while the Pixel 9 gets a 10.5-megapixel and the Pixel 9 Pro Fold is sporting a 10-megapixel front-facing camera. The Pixel 9 Pro will also stick with the same cameras as the Pixel 8 Pro, which includes a 50MP primary, 48MP ultrawide, and a 48MP telephoto camera. Meanwhile, the Pixel 9 has a 50MP primary and a 48MP ultrawide. Finally, the Pixel 9 Pro Fold has a 48MP main camera, a 10.5MP ultrawide, and a 10.8MP telephoto.
Google Pixel 9 is “designed for AI”
In Google’s marketing material it is also claiming that the Google Pixel 9 is designed for AI, which should come as no surprise since this Google. And it’s also 2024 so everything is designed for AI. Google is providing Pixel 9 users with Gemini Advanced included at no extra cost, for 12 months. There’s also a new feature called “Pixel Screenshots,” which will help “you save info that you want to remember later – like events, places, and more.” It’s sort of like Microsoft’s controversial Recall feature, but more watered down.
As expected, the Pixel 9 series will also be receiving seven years of updates, similar to the Pixel 8, Galaxy S24, Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6. Finally, the new Pixels also get EMergency SOS, which will send you crisis alerts about nearby fires or floods. Google also claims that this can thrwart malware and phishing scams.
This is shaping up to be a pretty big launch by Google, if not the biggest launch that the Pixel brand has ever seen.
