Despite the fact that Google, in order to avoid even more leaks of information about the Pixel 9, showed what the smartphone will look like, it did not help the company. A list of specifications, marketing photos, and other information about the upcoming smartphone appeared online.
The 91mobiles publication, together with the well-known insider OnLeaks, revealed almost all the details about the Pixel 9, 9 Pro XL, and 9 Pro Fold.
The smartphone will be available in dark gray, light gray, white, and pink colors. The edges of the devices will be polished or glossy, and the back cover will be softly matte. The smartphone also has a new protrusion for the camera system.
The regular Pixel 9 will have a 6.3-inch Actua display, the 9 Pro will also have a 6.3-inch display, and the 9 Pro XL will have a 6.8-inch Super Actua display. The 9 Pro Fold will have a 6.3-inch external display and an 8-inch Super Actua Flex internal display.
As for the cameras, the regular smartphone will have a 50-megapixel wide-angle camera and a 48-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera, while the 9 Pro and 9 Pro XL will also have a 48-megapixel telephoto camera. The Fold will have a set of 48MP main camera, 10.5MP ultra-wide and 10.8MP telephoto cameras. On the front, the regular Pixel 9 will have a 10.5 MP camera, the 9 Pro and XL will have 42 MP, and the Fold will have 10 MP.
All smartphone models will be equipped with a Tensor G4 processor, with the youngest model getting 12 GB of RAM and all the others getting 16 GB. Also, according to promotional materials, Google will promise up to 24 hours of battery life.
The company's new smartphones were designed with artificial intelligence in mind. They will get Gemini and other AI-based features such as Circle to Search. The company also promises seven years of support for security updates and Pixel Drops, an update with a set of exclusive new features for Pixel smartphones.
Other features revealed in the new leak include Emergency SOS, which will provide alerts about dangerous conditions in the vicinity, such as a fire or flood. It should also prevent malware and phishing scams.
Also, the new Pixel 9 will get the Pixel Screenshots feature, something like Microsoft's controversial Recall, but for smartphones. This feature will allow you to save various information, such as events, places, and more, for later.
The last known details about the upcoming smartphones are that in addition to the device itself, the box will include a 1-meter USB-C cord of the USB 2.0 standard, and buyers of new devices will get access to Gemini Advanced AI for free for one year.
