Newly leaked renders suggest that the upcoming Google Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro are set to debut with fresh design changes and camera updates.
Anticipation is building for Google’s latest smartphone offerings, the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro, as they are slated for a mid-year release. Following Google’s announcement of over 40 million Pixel phones sold last year, there’s been a flurry of leaks revealing potential features of the new models.
According to reports, the Pixel 9 Pro may retain the overall dimensions of the Pixel 8 but will sport a slightly smaller 9.5-inch screen, down from the Pixel 8’s 9.7 inches, due to increased bezel thickness. The screen resolution is also expected to decrease to 1080 x 2400 pixels from the Pixel 8’s 1344 x 2992 pixels. The standard Pixel 9 is anticipated to feature a 6.1-inch display with the same resolution as the Pro model, although it will be smaller than the previous model with a higher aspect ratio.
The upcoming devices are rumored to abandon the curved edge design in favor of a flatter look, aligning with design trends set by the iPhone 15 and the Galaxy S24. It remains to be seen if Google will maintain the aluminum frame of its predecessors or opt for a titanium build like its competitors, Apple and Samsung.
