The Pixel 9 Pro’s renders took everyone by surprise, leaking much earlier than anticipated, and showcasing an iPhone-like design with flat edges and a redesigned camera island borrowed from the Pixel Fold.
The Pixel 9 renders point to an even bigger generational upgrade than the Pixel 9 Pro. The phone is said to have dimensions of 152.8 x 71.9 x 8.5mm (or 12 mm if you count the camera bump), meaning it will slightly be taller and wider than the Pixel 8. The screen will go down in size from 6.2-inch to 6.1-inch.
This would be the first time a standard Pixel model would be equipped with three cameras. With Google leaning more heavily on AI than physical hardware, it probably thinks it’s alright to reduce specs differentiation between the Pixel 9 and 9 Pro. Not only has the company equipped the smaller model with a third sensor, but it also has a thermometer sensor apparently, which was previously exclusive to the Pro model.
Google’s new phones will be powered by the rumored Tensor G4 chip, which will be based on Samsung’s updated 4nm process.
