Google Pixel 9 Pro XL and 9 Pro
Google’s XL mobile is back with a bang with the 7 years of updates and AI features integrated as is usual in the models of the Mountain View company. This Google Pixel 9 Pro XL along with the rest of the versions has a renewed design that is characterized by straighter edges and a pill-shaped camera module that occupies the entire upper width of the device and protrudes from the casing. The Pixel 9 Pro XL and Pixel 9 Pro are made with a glass back cover and a satin-finish metal frame.
The screen you use reaches a maximum brightness of 3,000 nitsbreaking the brand’s previous records. The Google Pixel 9 Pro XL also uses OLED image technology with a refresh rate of about dimensions of 6.8 inches and topped off with 2K resolution, while the Pixel 9 Pro stays at 6.3 inches and FullHD+ resolution. It is protected by highly resistant Gorilla Glass Victus 2 glass against bumps and scratches.
As expected, the processor is a G4 Tensioner which is responsible for providing the Pixel 9 Pro XL along with the rest of the phones in the series with outstanding performance, as well as optimized and designed to fully squeeze Google’s AI. The Pixel 9 Pro XL’s battery has a 5,060 mAh capacity and it becomes the Google phone with the most battery of all the recent ones; it charges in just about 50 minutes to 100% thanks to the fast charging improvement up to 45W and wireless charging is also supported. At the same time, the Pixel 9 Pro incorporates a similar battery, but somewhat smaller given its 4,700 mAh capacity with the same fast charging levels.
The cameras on the Pixel 9 Pro XL are not going to disappoint you, nor are those on the Pixel 9 Pro. Google continues in its line and has a triple lens system composed of a 50 MP main lens, a 48 MP wide angle lens and 48MP telephoto lensas well as a 42 MP front with a brutal level of detail. Optical stabilization is available on the main and telephoto cameras, while only the main camera can record at 8K resolution at 30 FPS.

Google Pixel 9
The most compact version remains the Google Pixel 9 with a size of 6.3 inches same as the Pixel 9 Pro and a thickness of 8.5 mm totally identical. The difference is that the design is that of the Pixel 9 Pro XL to differentiate itself from its twin brother. It is also at the same time the most economical model of all and the one with the most humble specifications, although it is just as competitive. Proof of this is that the screen has very similar characteristics with OLED technology and the refresh rate of 60 to 120 Hz, with the only difference being that the Google Pixel 9 has FullHD+ resolution and a maximum brightness of 2700 nits.

The battery of the Google Pixel 9 is 4,700 mAh and also supports 45W fast charging and wireless charging, which is a significant improvement over the previous generation.
Its camera setup features the main absence of the telephoto lens and the 48 MP ultra-wide-angle sensor to opt for a 12 MP one. The main one is 50 MP and maintains the characteristics of the Pixel 9 Pro, although for the front camera it is not renewed either and reuses the last year’s 10.5MP front lens with the difference that it has autofocus. High Resolution Zoom is also available to get detailed photos from a distance without losing any quality. All cameras have autofocus, but only the main one has optical stabilization.
