We got a first look at Google’s Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro smartphones earlier this year in leaked renders. Onleaks (Steve Hemmerstoffer) shared these tips. The story takes a turn now. According to him, the Pixel 9 and 9 Pro will be marketed as Pixel 9 Pro and Pixel 9 Pro XL respectively. This would mark the return of the XL moniker last seen on the Pixel four years ago.
It is also unclear whether Google will release the standard Pixel 9. According to leaked renders, the answer is yes.
Google Pixel 9 will also share the same design as the Pro and Pro XL variants, according to leaked renders. The boxy design and flat frame give it a compact appearance. It also has curved corners. On the right side are the power and volume rocker buttons. As for the back panel, it sports a big protruding pill-shaped camera bridge that doesn’t extend to the corners like its predecessors.
Based on the renders, the Pixel 9 features a punch-hole cutout display with symmetrical bezels around the edges. As a result of the slightly smaller screen, the standard model has a 6.03-inch screen compared to the pro model’s 6.1 inches. In addition to the dual camera setup, the standard model will not feature a periscope lens as seen on the Pixel 9 Pro and 9 Pro XL.
According to Onleaks, the Pixel 9 will measure 152.8 x 71.9 x 8.5mm, and 12mm with the rear camera bump attached.
