The Google Pixel 9 was recently unveiled. Known for being dubbed the “iPhone killer” by users, the new device in the Pixel series brings radical changes in design compared to its predecessor. Here are the details on the new Google Pixel 9’s design and technical specifications:
Google Pixel 9 Design and Technical Specifications:
The Google Pixel 9 stands out primarily due to its refreshed design. The new model features a slightly thinner design compared to the Pixel 8 and comes with a larger display. The screen size has increased from 6.2 inches in the previous model to 6.3 inches in the Pixel 9. While this 0.1-inch increase may seem minor on paper, it represents a significant change for users.
The enlarged screen is covered with Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2, ensuring a phone that is resilient to drops. Additionally, the device features satin metal trims on the edges, a nod to the iPhone 15 series.
At the Made by Google event, the new generation Pixel series was introduced, but it comes with Android 14 rather than expected Android 15.
The back of the phone is entirely made of glass, and like its predecessor, it has three cameras on the back and one on the front. However, the 12 MP ultra-wide lens from the previous generation has been replaced with a 48 MP ultra-wide lens. The other two cameras retain their previous specifications, but the front camera now features automatic exposure for better photos.
Designed to consume less power, the device is equipped with the Tensor G4 chip. The new version includes 12 GB of RAM, eliminating the need for the 8 GB RAM models. This extra RAM capacity allows for easy use of many Gemini integrations that come standard with Android 15.
The Pixel 9 will be available in four colors: Obsidian, Porcelain, Wintergreen, and Peony. The 128 GB storage version will start at $799.
