Google Unveils New Pixel Phones: Pixel 9 Pro XL Joins the Lineup
Google has recently announced that in addition to the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro, they will be releasing a third non-foldable phone called the Pixel 9 Pro XL. This new addition is essentially a larger version of the Pixel 9 Pro, with four color options available: Obsidian, Porcelain, Rose Quartz, and Hazel. While the main difference between the Pixel 9 Pro and the Pixel 9 Pro XL is the size, there are a few other variations as well.
When it comes to the specifications, the Pixel 9 Pro XL is almost identical to the Pixel 9 Pro. However, there are a couple of differences worth noting. The Pixel 9 Pro XL features a 6.8-inch display, whereas the Pixel 9 Pro has a slightly smaller 6.3-inch display. The resolution also differs, with the Pixel 9 Pro XL offering a resolution of 1344 x 2992 compared to the Pixel 9 Pro’s 1280 x 2856. Additionally, the Pixel 9 Pro XL has a larger battery capacity of 5060mAh, while the Pixel 9 Pro has a 4700mAh battery.
It’s interesting to compare the Pixel 9 Pro XL to last year’s models. The Pixel 8 Pro had a 6.7-inch display, making the 6.8-inch Pixel 9 Pro XL roughly the same size. On the other hand, the 6.3-inch Pixel 9 Pro is actually smaller than its predecessor, the Pixel 8 Pro. This means that Google has downsized the Pixel 9 Pro, which could be a great advantage for users with smaller hands. However, for those who prefer a larger display, the Pixel 9 Pro XL offers a suitable option.
In addition to the Pixel 9 Pro XL and Pixel 9 Pro, Google is also releasing the entry-level model, the Google Pixel 9. This phone features a 6.3-inch display, 1080 x 2424 OLED display, Tensor G4 chip, 12GB RAM, and a 4700mAh battery. The Pixel 9 starts at $799, while the Pixel 9 Pro and Pixel 9 Pro XL have starting prices of $999 and $1,099 respectively. Pre-orders for all three models are now available, and they will be available in stores on August 22.
Overall, Google’s new lineup of Pixel phones offers a range of options to suit different preferences and budgets. Whether you prefer a smaller phone, a larger display, or an entry-level model, there is something for everyone. With its improved specifications and sleek design, the Pixel 9 Pro XL is a compelling choice for users who desire a larger screen and longer battery life.
