The renders of the upcoming Google Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro have surfaced online months ahead of the launch, thanks to tipster Steve H. McFly (@OnLeaks) in collaboration with 91Mobiles. The leaked images offer a sneak peek into the design, camera setup, and display, sparking anticipation for Google’s next flagship devices.
The renders of the Google Pixel 9 showcase a compact design with flattened sides, reminiscent of the latest iPhone 15 series. Noteworthy is the redesigned rear camera module, departing from the dual-camera setup of its predecessors (Pixel 6, Pixel 7, and Pixel 8) to feature a triple-camera setup. The camera housing includes three sensors and an LED flash, and instead of a full-width camera bar, an oval-shaped island just like the Pixel Fold is apparent.
The inclusion of a periscope telephoto lens in the camera unit suggests a significant upgrade in optical capabilities, potentially offering support for variable aperture, says tech analyst Sarah Thompson. This hints at a boost in the camera’s performance, adding a layer of intrigue for photography lovers.
In terms of display, the Google Pixel 9 is expected to sport a 6.5-inch screen, a slightly smaller size compared to the Pixel 8 Pro’s 6.7-inch display. This aligns with earlier speculations about a smaller pro-level Pixel 9 variant in development. Google is expected to offer a display with support for quad HD resolution for enhanced visual clarity, and there’s speculation about an increase in peak brightness for improved outdoor visibility. The rest of the details are yet to be revealed.
The Pixel 9 series is expected to be announced in October this year, just like every year. The company is yet to confirm the details, which is quite understandable because we are almost 10-11 months away from the event. It will be a successor to the Pixel 8 series phones. To recall, the Pixel 8 was launched with a starting price of Rs 75,999, whereas the Pixel 8 Pro was made available for Rs 1,06,999. The price of last year’s Pixel phones is expected to be a little lower after a few months, something that usually happens every year. It is worth mentioning that the Pixel 8a will likely arrive before the launch of the flagship Pixel 9 series.
The leaked renders of the Google Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro have given us a glimpse into what the upcoming flagship devices might offer. With a redesigned rear camera module featuring a triple-camera setup and the potential inclusion of a periscope telephoto lens, photography enthusiasts can expect an even better camera experience. The compact design with flattened sides, similar to the latest iPhone series, adds a touch of modernity to the upcoming devices.
Furthermore, the Google Pixel 9 is rumored to come with a slightly smaller display size compared to its predecessor, the Pixel 8 Pro. However, it is expected to support quad HD resolution for sharper visuals and potentially offer increased peak brightness for better outdoor visibility.
While Google is yet to confirm these details officially, these leaked renders have certainly sparked excitement among tech enthusiasts. As we await more information about the Pixel 9 series, it’s worth mentioning that the launch is expected to take place in October, following Google’s usual timeline for flagship releases.
As we look forward to the unveiling of the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro, it will be intriguing to see how Google’s latest devices compete in the ever-evolving smartphone market. With enhanced camera capabilities and a refined design, the Pixel 9 series has the potential to captivate consumers worldwide.
