Google Pixel 9 Series - Major Overhaul, But There’s A Catch?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 июн 2024
- The Google Pixel 8 Series was barely released a few months ago, so I'm sure some of you will assume it's probably too early for rumors already, but that's not really the case this time. Trust me if this was some bogus source I wouldn't spend my time building a video, but since this is OnLeaks renders on MySmartPrice we're talking about, let's just say this could lead to something credible. I'm Jaime Rivera with Pocketnow and let's dive in to what we just learned about the Google Pixel 9 series.

We are a Pixel Family. Son has 6 pro. Dad has Pixel fold. Wife has pixel 8... We love them.
What do you have?
Gotta be the 7
Congratulations?
Let's Go!!! 💪🏿#teampixel here
Google seems like your grandfather.
Making the screen smaller doesn't bother me. But if they are charging 1000 and using a weak CPU and modem, they can forget about it.
It still beats iPhones and S24 ultras in real life tests...😂
They measured wrong, they didnt measure corner to corner. its actually getting bigger.
I have a pixel 7 and the modem is my major complain. 5G doesn't work even as good as other $300 phones. The 5G connection is poor and phone heats up while using 5G hotspot. I can live with the weak CPU because it still does all the daily tasks without breaking a sweat, but the modem is something they need to address ASAP
@@darsh2209
In contrast, my pixel 8 pro doesn’t heat at all, even using as a 5g hotspot for my WiFi iPad. The modem is fine on the 8 pro too.
@@speedlever that's interesting. I never see full 5G signal on my phone. It's always 2 bars. I never see 4 or 5 bars of 5G signal. Anyway, they still have a lot of improvement to do on the chip. They should go for tsmc fabrication because I heard Samsung's fabrication is causing all these problems
What happened to the Pocketnow Daily?? Don't tell us it's over!
Where have you been Jaime? Good to have you back!
I have owned every XL and Pro model Pixel phone since the Original Pixel XL (and Nexus before that), but I'm honestly considering skipping the Pixel 9 Pro if it's going to contain the Samsung SOC again. It's not a bad processor, but I'm ready for an SOC that can compete with Apple and Qualcomm on benchmark scoring. I can't see putting out another $1000 for a phone that won't really be much better than the 8 Pro I have now. If the Pixel 10 XL will come with the TSMC SOC, then I'll DEFINITELY be buying that, especially if Google puts the same graphene tape over the SOC and battery like they did with the Pixel 8 Pro to better manage heat. Thankfully because Google did this with the Pixel 8 Pro, I have not heat issues whatsoever.
Exactly if you are a Pixel 3 owner and before, you will feel the same.. Samsung goes qualcomm way and Google picks exynos.. why? whyyyyyyyy?
My Pixel3 on qualcomm still is a beast.. Considering S24 Ultra.. will see..
@PIXEL00000 I still use pixel 3 also and I feel its lacking absolutely nowhere, except updates, only reason I'm looking to upgrade, probably 8a
They better step up the scratch protection, that's for sure. I scratched my Pixel 8 Pro on the FIRST DAY of me having it.
@@SuperiorityFighter Not even iPhones are scratch proof. I ALWAYS put a screen protector on all my phones. Glass is glass and glass will scratch or break. It's not made of diamonds.
@NOLATechy iPhones have better scratch protection. I know somebody who's never had a case in his iPhone 13 Pro Max and there are the tiniest scratches. He's had it for 3 years, but I've had this Pixel for 3 months.
Is there no more pocket now daily?
keep up hard work bro on your channels hope to see more
I wish they could keep the finger scan in the back.
going with Huawei mate 70 pro... do you have a review for this one
This may be the year I upgrade from my Pixel 6a. My wife has a Pixel 7 and I like it a lot but I prefer the form factor of the 6a. The 8 seemed perfect but I'm happy to wait for the 9!
Big love Jaime ! Kindest regards, Richard U.K
I'm curious if the base chipset for the Tensor G4 will be the new Exynos 2400 in the EU market Galaxy S24/S24+. That chip, while not as efficient in tests so far as the SD8 Gen 3, it is improved on performance over the Exynos 2200. I don't mind the new boxy iPhone-esque design or the Pixel Fold like camera island minus the wraparound sides. Once in a case, none of those elements will be noticeable anyway.
After owning Pixels for the last 8 years, I'll just say I still feel the same way I did back then. I really wish I could have a S24 Ultra with Pixel software. It's a little different this year as it looks like Samsung is introducing some of the features I really like about the Pixel, like the live translate. I've been very tempted to switch to the S24 since I skipped upgrading to the Pixel 8 (still using a P6P). But there's little things like the system ui, bixby, and the google assistant integration which make me question committing to the switch for 2 years.
Galaxy Pixel. 👌
I'd have to agree. I like Pixel phones but prefer Samsung's ecosystem and support. I do recall that there once was a Galaxy S5 that had pure Google Android on it but that was years ago and only that one time.
@@CF542 Yeah, the developer editions iirc. Would love a return of those. Probably harder today with how the chips handle AI and how each mfg wants to handle that.
If anything wait for the 9P to come out, and trade in your 6P....it will be an actual upgrade for you. The S24U is just the 23U with watered down AI....Plus you'll need to pay for the AI in a year of purchase, so....
Thanks and greetings from Germany 👍
This is what i was waiting for rectangular design and smaller size.
Wonder if Europe will again not be offered the large memory options?
Any updates on the Pixel Fold 2 design. Am rocking Pixel Fold and love it (except for weight and battery life).
Their design with the 8 series was the absolute best, notwithstanding issues with heating and battery life/charging. Why are they trying to make it look more like the iPhone?😢
To make a bigger indentation in the massive American market.
Cause iPhones sell
6.1 size is already dead; you can't fill in with flagship features in that small, compact phone. Anything above 6.3 makes sense for flagship
Also, Google wastes time on changing designs every year.
Pixel 6 and 8 Pro have the best designs; they should probably have kept Pixel 6 designs for 3 or 4 years and then 8 Pro designs for another 4 years and probably research on the quality of materials, colours, and hardware.
this process would have kept the pixels much stronger in global market. competing with Samsung and the iPhone.
@@jeethendra_c Top 3 smartphones sold globally in last 3 years all had 6.1 inch display and of course they are from Apple. Compact sized smartphoes are not dead. In fact far from it
I said 6.1 Flagship is dead. 6.1 normal phones can work. @@BossAtwork69
Are we seeing iPhone trends with the exterior?
I'm glad they are shrinking the phones a little bit. Remember this is a phone that got to fit in your pocket, not trying to shove a whole laptop in your pants.
i hope it happens. I also hope to see the QHD display back and faster charging. oh, and 256 GB Base Storage
@@MJG70 512gb will be better, even mid-range phone have 512gb options.
plus I cannot handle 6.7 inches phones.. so 6.5 is ideal.
It's shrinking due to the square design I guess. So will feel not any larger than before
I sure hope so. Maybe finally they've realised that phones have just become too big. I've got the Pixel 8 pro, although I love the cameras, I can't stand the massive size
I like the flats sides of the render but I think they should keep the visor, it would blend into the flatter sides better. I'm not happy about the smaller screen size. I understand the bezels will be smaller, so sure keep the same size viewable screen and shrink the bezels then they can make the phone .1mm smaller all around, just don't shrink the viewable screen size, that's stupid. Either way they go it doesn't really matter to me because I'm switching from this P8P and going back to Samsung next year when they release the S25 series. This P8P was an experiment just to see how I liked a stock Android experience, and my conclusion after only having this phone since launch is that I prefer OneUI over stock Android. I'll miss the beta's and having the latest greatest android (although it seems Google is ACTUALLY giving that privilege to Samsung owners for some reason) updates and software.
I hope the camera housing is more rectangular just like how they did it in the Pixel Fold.
if the pixel 9 had a smaller screen and bigger battery I would be thrilled, telephoto lens would be icing on the cake but that's not be greedy here lol
Jaime, Thank you for the updates really appreciate it, would you know if those leaks are showing the metal rails on the pixel 9 are glossy shiny or mate metal? thank you in advance, I understand we will be able to verify around October or November this year but just curious about those leaks details... Keep it up!
Still love my pixel 5, my first google phone. As it's now out of support I'll probably try to wait it out til pixel 9 release, then make an upgrade call
Didn't Google launch a new phone the other day, the s24 Ultra?)
Only a new color
😂😂😂 sure they did
yep. google releases new phones monthly.
That's samsung.
Either really dumb or clever
What about the next Pixel fold? Specs?
Like the rear camera layout but not a big fan of it pulling from the iPhone 12-14 design
I think that was the intention, they want to get more people looking and trying the Pixels...The Pixel phones are actually really popular over in Japan surprisingly. So I'm sure Google is hoping more people will give the phone a chance and to try out something new, if their phones resembles the Iphones. Plus Google and Apple have been making several commercials together too, or at least Google has featured their phones in their pixel commercials...so idk.
Same
I'm not as keen on the rear camera on the renders and much prefer the visor bar which looks much neater and more unique on the older pixels. I don't think I'll bother with the upgrade to 9 Pro now and wait to see what the 10 looks like next year.
Love the new design. A;ways appreciated the look of the iPhone Pro series, and to have that design but with Google camera and software is my perfect phone. Would love a smaller Pixel 9 Pro also.
my main concern is the the battery. It's okay right now, but I would love a bigger battery or at least better priorities in terms of software battery saving. I want it to last as long as the SGU 23/24 ultra
I'm currently using the pixel 7 (not pro, not A model)
With the standard battery save mode turned on
Phone works wonders no lag or stutter
I'm getting roughly 8 to 10 hours of on screen time
You should not be worried about daily battery life
@@DmanLucky_98 I think what I meant was stand-by time, its HORRIBLE...I wiould leave my phone on the table for about 3 or so hours, and the battery tanked. The standby time is hoorrible on the pixels
We are getting updates on kennels js
@@Twentiethrogue Nice.
@@megamegaOturn off your WiFi when not in use
To be real, I'm kinda glad that the volume and power are on the right side. Upgrading from my pixel 4a to the 8 is a much easier switch becasue of it and at least they've kept a consistent placement with each generation...
One gimmick that could actually be really cool is a multifunction or Google Assistant button on the The opposite side of the phone like what Apple did with silence switch.
My first Pixel is 6A in late 2023, and I'll never switch to another brand. Hoping they will officially support our country.
Which country is dat
Must be Poland :( We are keep waiting!
I was expecting a slightly rounded rectangular camera module like on the Fold. This pill-shaped one doesn't gel well with the overall design. Also the edge looks sharp just like the current ones 🫤
I love pixel devices. Ever since the pixel 2 I fell in love with the software and stock Android. I tried to use Samsung a few times with s22 ultra and z flip 5 but Samsung didn't work for me. I didn't like the fact that I have two Messengers two galleries and etc. basically have the same apps two times if you own a Samsung. I love pixel devices especially the 8 pro. I feel like they really caught up with the cameras especially videos.
Hi friend, is it possible that Google will add in the next future update the Phone Call Translate technology, i.e. the translation of calls in real time, it's like the Samsung S24 Ultra.
so its pixel 9, pixel 9 +, pixel 9 pro and pixel 9 pro +?
If Google makes a Pro Max version, with a larger display, maybe. Remember how great the s20 Ultra's 6.9" display was?
That’s only 1% increase. They have 6’8
Why does it seem that you tend to forget that Google has had the volume and power button on the right side? Oh and btw the power button is on the top of the volume buttons too. Just because you'll probably eventually bring it up too..
Hey, how good is pixel finger print scanner? Does it work every time? Because the job of finger print scanner is not just to unlock a phone, it's also required to authenticate apps. When scanner doesn't work that time, it irritates. Thanks.
It works really well, for me it works every time. But you need to set it up really accurately. For example how do you position your finger when you unlock your phone etc
I love the pixel series I hope they not making the pro screen smaller when Apple is coming with a 6.9 screen size for iPhone, I got big hands and love big phones
It'll be good for battery and thermals when/if the Pixels get a better SOC, and I know the only way to get the change we want from a company like Google is to let our dissatisfaction be known. But the Pixel 8 Pro is a pretty dang good phone(typing on it). The only thing, processor-wise, I wish it were a little quicker with is shutter speed and exporting video files.
Wow that's nice 😮 making me regret getting the Samsung , hopefully price doesn't ruin it
Cool for a design update, BUT the only way I would be buying the P9 after having just bought the P8 is if they were moving on from Samsung. Looks like I'm sticking with the P8 for two cycles. Tensor with Samsung doesn't feel different on the P8 vs. my previous P6. There is no way I'm buying this chip AGAIN
You can do what I'm going to do, I'm just trading my pixels in, until Google release a worth while phone with GREAT battery, sorta like the 23ultra....no reason to updates to the 24u if im being honest...Best Buy had a great trade in offer this year. I bought my 8 for 250 bucks, when I traded my 7...Plus they gave free PixelBuds pros too. Once they release a REALLY solid phone, then i'll be sticking with it for a while until the next true upgrade. I'm honestly thinking that their Pixel 10/10pro will be THAT phone. But we'll see.
I'm not a fan of the Pixel 9 Pro screen to be smaller from the previous generations. However, the design looks intriguing.
Pixel 9 Pro looks like it will also be keeping the thermometer that Pixel 8 Pro already has which is very surprising
It got an update. You can measure your fever now.
@@ilianto cool?
@@blackmanwhitesuitIf not, you could be dying.
I might consider the Pixel if they ever get a decent chip, I've tried Tensor and I wasn't impressed at all
I have, not sure what you're referring to not being impressed...The UI? Gaming? Speeds? I mean from what i've seen it handles everything pretty well....the only thing that sucks is the signal sometimes but by the time the 10 comes out it should be a non issue.
They can try mediatek instead of samsung exynos chips
Launch in October, then sale on black Friday
I still want them to switch the power button and volume button around just like on Samsung phones.
I'm just hoping it's comfortable to hold like pixel phones usually are
That would be great if the pro model got a little smaller that's always what kept me from getting it even though I wanted some of the extra cameras but I didn't want to carry a phone that big so I'm all for a pro model that's a little smaller
Totally agree with you about the size! I would have loved to have the telephoto lens but the phone is just too big.
Why pixel phones have no 5g connection in the Philippines?
Was good to upgrade to the pixel 8 pro but if this is what's coming later this year I will wait.
It will, new phones come out every year.
Pixel 9 will likely be the Pixel I'll be buying now that my Pixel 5 is out of updates. Hoping they'll give that sweet sweet trade in deal for the Pixel 9 like what they did for the Pixel 8 at launch
I've bought every Google phone the xl or pro since back in the Nexus days all the way up to the current 8 pro. If they go smaller on the pro screen, I'll be looking for another phone company to buy from. I almost didn't buy the eight pro until they announced that it was a flat screen because I was not doing any more curved screen BS.
battery life is main thing keeping me from getting another pixel phone (currently 7pro) think ill just get the s25 ultra whenever that comes out
either the next tensor chip can compete with QSD 8gen3(+)/4 or they just take the QSD, otherwise won't be interesting.
Am i alone in Possibly wanting a 7 inch phone. As in the old Huawei p20? If my memory serves me correctly?
They should put the volume rockers on the left 🤌 and make them separate from one another. And just the power button on the right side 👌 I'm loving the new design language. And if they make an under display camera instead of that punch hole for the camera it would be awesome 👍 bloggers and Google take notes 🙏
P.S. I also like what they're doing with the camera bar. It will make the phone less top heavy in my opinion
we need pocketnow daily back :(
Even though qualcomm can make AI optimised chips now, and samsung is offering AI on their phones, the fact that samsung being the largest android manufacturer could not bring their own AI features (bringing identical AI features to the pixel) and instead had to rely on google for those features shows us how much google is ahead of other manufacturers in terms of AI. On top of this, samsung is only offering those features for free till 2025, while supporting their phone upto 2031. If i want an AI focused phone, I'll still go for google
Pixel 3 a XL and 6... Waiting for the 9pro.
I am buying it.
Was hoping they'd take the rectangular camera bump off the Pixel Fold
Didn't pixel 8 just come out dang
will only go back to Pixel when they:
1. Go back to TSMC/Snapdragon
2. Video over usb-c (and desktop mode would be a nice feature along with it)
3. Routines feature
Um no tensor g4 should be great as its basically a modified exynos 2400 and 2400 is on par with 8 gen 3
The CPU is almost there, but the GPU is still playing catch up. Plus, by the time the G4 comes out the 2400 will be close to a year old.
@@Garrettdx1988 um no gpu surpasses 8 gen 3 in gaming especially in war thunder
I just love the pixel line. It just works. I'm on the pixel 7 pro
I won't upgrade until the pixel 10 or 11 There is hardly any point of updating every year anymore. The developments are so minor that it's not worth the increasing cost.
I had my pixel one that I kept until the pixel 4
I will do the same now.
It's still early but it seems like a strange decision (if it ends up being true) that the 9 Pro will be slightly smaller than the 8 Pro. Plus, yeah, just to piggy-back off of what others are saying, the Tensor chip could use some love, too.
Well the 8 is considerably smaller than the 7 that I had.
I'm watching from my pixel 3, I wish can move to pixel 8 ☺️🙏🏾 #soon
I don't know why i am so attached to the pixel 6pro design,,, honestly that's where i see the real Google pixel phones designers wonders
I'm on a day one-ish P8 (from the P6, from the P4, from the P2), and the supposed design of the P9 isn't tempting me at all. The P8 feels perfect in it's dimensions and shapeliness. I also like the camera bar way more.
The supposed P9 design seems way overinfluenced by Apple for superficial reasons, at the expense of practical ones.
Will it have 7 years of security updates though
Obviously even the low end 6a and 7a have it
@@niravraj2815 no. Prior to pixel 8, all pixel phones had 3 years OS updates and 5 year security updates
It's Google, it's never too early for rumors and leaks 😅
If they go smaller, I am out.
I finally bought a Pixel with the 7Pro series because it went bigger.
Maybe they can move from exynos to mediatek much better or snapdragon best chip as of now
Pixel products are the best of view. but the camera protection is concern to all of the phone companies for laying down the phone on Ground.
I actually like the pixel 9 design compared to the earlier ones, my only hope is Google moves from Samsung to TSMC fabricated Tensor chips. When they do, that's the day I'm switching to a Pixel.
No locau available Pixel in my country 🇵🇭 😢
And. Please. A power button on one side and the volume on the other side! As in the one plus phones
AT&T didn’t offer the blue Pixel 8 Pro in the 512gb and only offered it in the 128gb which left me feeling like WTF AT&T/Google😢
Like it so far
New video strategy for the channel? I feel like normally this would be a part of a pocket now daily conversation. Are we doing less pocket now daily videos?😊
I like this more than if it was a 50-second segment in a video with a bunch of other topics
I don’t want the boxy design. Curved edges are the way to go!
new design looks good, except for the larger radius on the corners. that looks freaking stupid.
I have a pixel 7 and it's glitchy as hell now
Have we figured out why Google added a temperature sensor yet?
So you can measure how hot and flustered you get when that bad modem keeps dropping it's signal.😅😅
The reason for Google to be shrinking the Screen on Pixel 9 Pro to a 6'5 " I bet they will introduce a Pixel Ultra with a 6'8" or 6'9" screen possibly with a stylus ?
Interesting thought, that I am surprised nobody else is picking up on?.
Just removed camera bump 😂😂😂
The only that’s keeping me off the pixels are that exynos disguised tensor Chip that’s been throttling these phones
Google needs to find a way to sort things out with TSMC bc working with Samsung never worked for their benefit
I wish pixel make good eco system and fluid software.
Think the pixel 6 was the most iconic Pixel design
1:46 The camera protruding form factor looks stunning because the way it matches or blend perfectly with the square shape of the phone body.1:46 This overhaul redesign of Pixel phone form factor is aesthetically appealing to the sight. 2:02 I personally won't buy a smaller size phone especially if I'm spending so much money for a phone. 2:02 Maybe Google is bringing out a Ultra version which will be good for business. 2:02 A 6.8 inch phone is my only go to phone for the top tier models. 2:38 The blue colour of the phone in this rendition looks exquisite. 4:53 Ai is the right trajectory please don't hesitate to go all out innovating new essential services like Live translation. Google Pixel please bring Live translation on Pixel 9 Ultra.
Mmmm, minty fresh
Why would Google make the Pixel 9 Pro smaller? This will mean a smaller battery unfortunately, I think Google moving away from Samsung for their Tensor chip eventually will help them immensely.
I feel like the big change will be the pixel 10. Like other phone manufacturers Thay brought big change when they hit 10 years old. Hmm. But I do like the boxy look of pixel 9 though but the chip will not be googles...
Lokks good
I'll buy Google pixel 9 if this comes according to Rumours having flat display and flat back
The design looks killer, they should go with TSMC instead of Samsung..
So have all phone developers given up on the idea of a front camera lens behind the front screen? It seems like Samsung and Google are content with a hole punch and, well...Apple has the Dynamic Island.
My past three phones have been one Nexus phone and two Pixel phones. I'm probably going away from the crowd here but i have no intentions of getting a phone with a smaller screen size. I would honestly be happy if it was a little larger. I'll switch manufacturers if they shrink the screen and this 7pro dies during the smaller 9pro's time on the market.
