Today, Google has announced the Pixel 9 smartphone, and it goes on sale in the United States on the 22nd of August 2024. It comes in four color schemes – Porcelain, Peony, Wintergreen and Obsidian – and two storage options – 128GB and 256GB. RAM is 12GB on both variants.
The Google Pixel 9’s frame is made of aluminum, while there is Gorilla Glass Victus 2 on the back panel. The whole device is water and dust protected, with an IP68 rating.
The Google Pixel 9 comes in four color schemes.
The Google Pixel 9 costs $800 and $900 in the United States, for the 128GB storage trim and the 256GB storage trim, respectively.
In the United Kingdom (UK), it goes for £800 and £900 respectively. And in European Union (EU) countries like Germany, Norway, the Netherlands and others, it goes for €900 and €1,000 respectively.
Google Pixel 9 has a 6.3-inch OLED display with 120Hz refresh rate and also protected by a sheet of Gorilla Glass Victus 2. It is a relatively compact phone and weighs 198g. The display houses a 10.5MP selfie camera in a centered punch hole at the top. In the lower section is embedded an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor. At the back of the Pixel 9 is a 50MP main camera with OIS, a 48MP ultra-wide camera.
Google Pixel phones are not known for really fast charging standards, and this year’s model supports only 27W fast charging based on the Power Delivery standard. The battery capacity is 4700mAh.
Usually, Pixel phones launch with an entirely new version of Android OS, but this time, that isn’t happening. The Pixel 9 launches with Android 14 instead of 15. Google says that it will get Android 15 in a few months. According to Google’s software update policy, the Pixel 9 will get 7 years of major Android updates and security patches. So, you should be able to use it comfortably for that length of time .
Pre-order
Meanwhile, you can pre-order the Google Pixel 9 in the US and Europe right away. A pre-order of the 128GB Pixel 9 will get you a free storage upgrade, so you get the 256GB version at no extra cost. It sounds like a good deal if you are thinking of getting the phone anyway.
NB : If interested, explore the full specifications of the entire Pixel 9 series .
