Based on what you’ve seen so far, I haven’t unboxed my fold6 yet, should I return it and go the pixel fold? I do game but having a toddler that’s always doing new things, capturing those moments is the higher priority. I look forward to your fold review in a weeks time ❤
@@JayWilFo I only hands on time with the Pixel Fold Pro but it feels awesome. Its thin, the outside screen is a good size and it looks much better than the previous year. I personally prefer the form factor over the Fold 6. But I can't comment on things like battery life, cameras etc since I dont have it yet
I don't know when you got to remember that Google has an unlocked bootloader. That's kind of liberating experience that can support custom ROMs and Samsung doesn't support that anymore. When I think of Apple I think of less options and things are more determined for you. But yet I would argue with an unlocked bootloader and way less bloat, pixel has more customization and freedom than Samsung.
I still use a pixel 6 pro and am very happy with it, striped out a lot of the unnecessary android features and I get a solid 2-3 days of battery life. Its always fun to see new hardware but honestly threes not much in the last few mobile generations in general that's been terribly ground breaking for me. 6 pro is still an incredibly snappy and polished experience. Anyways, great review, love your videos :)
Niagara Launcher is one of the best Android apps to ever exist. Makes every phone/tablet feel at home for me. The thing that differentiates it from other launchers is how smooth it feels. The animations are well tuned, the UI design is so well thought out and just in general it almost feels like a native app that'd come with the phone when it comes to the level of optimisation it has.
0:33 Nah, I’m cool with both Apple and Google. Each OS has its own ups and downs. What I really dig about the Pixel is its speed and quality when snapping pics-super slick. And like the iPhone, the Pixel’s stock Android is clean, no bloatware like other Android phones. Samsung Knights: stand down and stand by 😂
What’s the outside battery life? My previous experience with the pixel 6 was horrible, using my phone outside drained the battery, and the modem was horrible at keeping a stable signal.
Coming from a pixel 6 pro user, my 9 pro xl was still in the 90's percentage wise whenever I would leave a 8 hour work shift vs my pixel 6 pro would be in the low 80s - 70s. Definitely an improvement! I'm loving this phone!
Ordered the G pixel 9 pro XL 16/256 (reduced price and benefits if early purchase): Circle to search, Gemini live as assistant (so long Siri/iPhone…), Gemini nano for screenshots app, tripod-like panoramas, etc.
I pre-ordered this phone in white. So far, I'm thinking with all the reviews, I may just keep my Pixel 6 Pro. None of these gimmicks appeal to me and not sure 1000 bucks is worth it to do what I use the 6 for. Even the screen sizes are almost the same.
Great video as always Matthew. You've always been one of the best tech reviewers in the industry. I almost wonder whether it could be nice to do these sorts of comparison videos with phones that are a few generations old. These days most people aren't upgrading every year, they're upgrading every few years. Therefore it could be nice to see the genuine improvements of the Pixel 9 over something like the Pixel 6, for example. Comparing to the Pixel 8 makes it a much harder to point out the differences.
Nice comparison, mate! My 9 Pro XL will be delivered tomorrow. I've got an 8 Pro so not a big upgrade. I typically buy a new phone every year. Work is buying me an iPhone 16 Pro, so I'll have 2 new toys to play with soon.
I pre-ordered Google pixel 9 pro XL rose quartz colored on the day after. it was announced at made by Google and then received the phone within 3 days later. so it was impressive and I'm loving it today!
Matt, thank you Matt. Thank you for informing me that the front facing is in fact bigger. I’m really not a fan of how big it is and I couldn’t tell if it was bigger or just my eyes playing tricks on me. Thank you again.
traded my Z fold to the Pixel 9 XL. I miss the fold but this Pixel 9 is amazing. I love the screen, the tech and the half-ass Ai integration. It's a really good phone. Just wish it would fold in half :)_
10% upgrade and still all this hype?! If I was a RUclipsr, I wouldn't say a word about the "new" Pixels, because with such minor upgrades they don't deserve any attention. Google must to understand that! 😖 Same goes for the other brands.
Tue 9 Pro camera is perfect. They made exactly the right changes they needed to make. The Pixel 9 Pro is the first camera phone to be an upgrade to the Pixel 5, ever.
Reviewers must be scared to call out how this is the most minor hardware update in history. It's clear the Google hardware people didn't finish their homework in time for the shareholders
Odd, the size disparity of the "front facing camera" make the 8 pro image better looking hands down... Makes one wonder about the whole comparison. Others talk about how poor the cameras are in the 9...
I love your videos. Been watching for years! Did you test out the call recorder/transcribe on this phone yet? Wasn't sure if it is available yet? This feature will be great if it works.
With the current free upgrade to 256GB storage and a 250€ credit in the Google store, I think it's an actual good deal. What other flagship is sitting at 850€ with 256GB? Preferably not a Chinese brand.
Pixel 8 Pro has been a good phone for me. However, I have to make a ton of calls in some spotty areas and the reception has IMO been really mediocre. I know it sounds crazy, but that was one of the main reasons I ordered the Pixel 9 Pro XL. I hope the new modem solves my problem! A friend asked me why not an iPhone or a Samsung? I'm not an Apple guy, and I really enjoy stock Android.
I had a 7&8 Pro, skipping this year waiting on that TSMC silicon, I believe Google is going to go all the way flagship premium next year and im here for it, especially if they pair it with a Qualcomm modem then we are in business with efficiency!
In Greece 8 pro costs 670€ and 9pro xl 1250€. 580€!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It’s not worth to upgrade or just buy 9 pro xl with these small ,to my opinion,deferences. 8 pro is a very good choice .
Yeah, the pixel 9 pro XL definitely has way more range and dynamic and depth and it definitely seems a lot more punchier on the base and mids and higher on the highs
At 2:08. They are both at the same Zoom, but the left picture is getting more in the frame and looks more zoomed out (also causing your head to look smaller/thinner). What is the cause of this? Sensor Size? Focal Length?
Great review, Matthew! The Tensor chip doesn't really excite in the numbers department, which I think we've all expected, but if the quality of life has been improved, that's more than enough. New modem and better battery life, I think that's all Pixel users would hope for, after all it's the software that's attractive with these Pixels. Also, the toupee bit was funny lol (uh.. if it was a bit). Question tho! Does the Pixel 9 retain the secure face unlock that can be used for things like banking apps?
I've seen video after video of Gemini just bombing and this was no exception lol. He had to guide it to an answer. When it comes to providing information Google's AI just isn't there
I have Pixel 6 for almost 3 years and I’m thinking to upgrade to either P8Pro or 9Pro. What would you recommend? For me 8P feels better money value proposition than crappie AI overpriced P9.
@@MatthewMoniz the video was really helpful! I'm coming from a Pixel 6 which still serves me fine - except the charging port is ruined, it's uneconomic to repair (frustrating), and I'm tired of carrying a wireless charger everywhere! All I want is a big Pixel, with a battery that gets me through the day, I want it to last 3 years, and I don't massively care about AI... So I think I'm going 8 and pocketing the £ saving. Thanks again!
@@MartinSpoonEven if you get a new phone, Think about changing your charging habits… Stop violently/ hurriedly pushing in the charging cable into your phone
Google reached its nexus on cameras years ago and has since made incremental improvements. We will likely never see another generational leap with Google Cameras compared to their software algorithms from a few years ago.
Hi, can you share if the top down speakers still have the top one being softer when in vertical mode? Pixel 7 pro had that issue.. Samsung iPhone never had those annoying issues
Matt, that battery life that you shared, its horrendous man. I have my S24U - right now 10 PM CST - its 62% with 4 hr 52 mins SOT (WFH - video calls all the good stuff) - so this 43% by EOD is no good for 3 Hr of battery
Agree. Watching so much review and test and seem like pixel 9 series get the max average sot on LTE for 730h. And seem like would be around 5/6 hours in 5g. And all others flagship getting average 10h on 5g, what pixel provide 6h is just way way under standard, or simply shit
My 8 pro got the best speakers I've ever had on a android phone and in my opinion much better than the 24 ultra. I've had both and the pixels speakers are fuller with more bass and plenty loud, most of the time I have to turn them down.
@MatthewMoniz, is it worth upgrading from 8 Pro to 9 Pro XL? Will cost me about $300 after trading in the 8 Pro and using the $200 back they're giving me... Torn on whether it's worth the upgrade
Depends, is your batter ylife bad? Are you having connection issues? Phone in bad condition? I mean if you're suffering from any of those things then yes it might be a worthy upgrade for you
The battery life has definitely seemed to drop but not substantially over the past few years. I waited out not getting the seven and the eight hoping that the 9 pro would be a decent improvement over the 6 pro. Do you think the processor and camera has a decent improvement? Thanks for the response Matthew I appreciate your input.@MatthewMoniz
@@jamiesinton6811 The question is whether you have any use for additional processing power and a better camera. If you can do everything with your phone you want to and don't have to hold back on anything, it's still good to use. If you get blocked from apps you want to use because the performance is bad or it is not available because the software is outdated or the power is not enough, you can consider it. There tends to be some sort of improvement in every generation, the question is whether it matters for you. And waiting for some months after release can also reduce the amount you have to pay, at the expense of potentially less update time left, which is still high for the google phones.
The mobile is great no major difference from the previous mobile & and about the usage of the phone it depends from person to another for example I am using iphone and the battery goes out quickly and it is not as the company advertised so as I said it depends from person to another person thanks for your review on this phone I learned a lot about the phone
What do you guys think of the Pixel 9 Pro XL?
hii,
is it worth upgrading from the 8 pro? my battery life is not bad nor great.
No such thing as a perfect phone, it will never exist

When his tone got aggressive with Gemini, Gemini was like "ok here's the deal" 💀
Sometimes you just have to put Gemini in its place
I love that Gemini got the true customer service feel like ok you're being rude so let me get this over with.

I ordered the XL, just waiting to be delivered. First new phone in 6-7 years. And yes the LG G4 looks fantastic. Highly recommended
Wow!! What phone are you upgrading from ?
@@MatthewMoniz I had the Huawei mate 10. I bought it during a trip to Europe, fantastic phone.
@@omarcortes5754 Damn thats going to be a nice upgrade! Let me know how you like it.
I am close to pull the trigger on XL too. Switching from 2 XL. ;)
What 😮
This is the iPhone of the Android world. I can see why hardcore Android fans hate that but the experience is just incredibly refined and enjoyable
Ya I like it a lot. Its my go to Android phone at the moment if i'm not using a foldable.
I don't know when you got to remember that Google has an unlocked bootloader. That's kind of liberating experience that can support custom ROMs and Samsung doesn't support that anymore. When I think of Apple I think of less options and things are more determined for you. But yet I would argue with an unlocked bootloader and way less bloat, pixel has more customization and freedom than Samsung.
From a dev perspective, I have a lot more options with Android phones overall, but more so with the pixel phones.
Why always talk about 🍏😳
Yeah pixel is the apple of androids and even android fand hate it more than iPhone.
Don't know why good things always gets hate
2:17 damn that selfie cam tho...it look's so much better, like there's at least two years apart between the phone's. Good job Google
I agree, but it still looks worse than iPhones
I still use a pixel 6 pro and am very happy with it, striped out a lot of the unnecessary android features and I get a solid 2-3 days of battery life. Its always fun to see new hardware but honestly threes not much in the last few mobile generations in general that's been terribly ground breaking for me. 6 pro is still an incredibly snappy and polished experience. Anyways, great review, love your videos :)
hello can you tell me which application have you deleted to have a good battery
I have the 6 pro and I'm fine 😂 I'll wait for the 10 pro so I'll buy the 8 pro 😂
I feel the same way only I have the P6 & 7pro I'll probably wait for the P10 or P11
You can strip a lot more if you install GrapheneOS! ;)
Why do all the 9 Pro XL photos look all washed out compared to the much better colors and sharper ones for 8 Pro?
I thought I was the only one seeing that
I see it today, it's a beautiful phone, hopefully it lasts me another 2-3 years

All these reviews man 😭 Must resist buying shiny new thing 🫠 I have an 8 Pro, I’m waiting for the 10 with the TSMC chip.
I upgraded from the 8 pro. Was so hard to resist 😂
I have the 6 pro and it's fine 😂 I'll wait for the 10 pro so I'll buy the 8 pro 😂
I just upgraded to the 8 pro from 6 pro. A day later, pixel 9 series was released?! Not even a full year before the new pixel is released.
Same here😂have to resist to buy the pixel 9 pro XL
First gen tsmc vs 4th gen exynos. Buggy on the initial launch?

Seeing Niagara launcher puts a smile on my face
I love it. Late to the party but I’m here
Hands down, I still love my P8Pro Bay color, going to rock this for the next couple of years.
I'm gonna stick with my Pixel 4a until next year. I plan to get the 10 and I can't wait!!
please do pixel 8 vs pixel 9 (base models)
I just bought a 9 Pro XL because my old phone's battery is so swollen it's about to explode like a pager in the Middle East.
I don't think I'll do an upgrade from the 8 pro. No real major jumps just little fixes here and there 🤷

Summing up: don't upgrade if you already own the 8 Pro. It's not worth paying that much for the minor upgrades.
I own the base 8 so i definitely ordered the 9pro
3:59 I was listening with my Sony XM4 without watching the video and I literally could not tell if the device changed.
It did and the audio is so close it's negligible
The android users were saying they were tired with curved screen and now they are giving us the flat screen I think we should stop the criticism
Tue 9 Pro camera is perfect. They made exactly the right changes they needed to make. The Pixel 9 Pro is the first camera phone to be an upgrade to the Pixel 5, ever.
At 4:54 mins, the 9PXL looks to have a different 'tone' than the 8P. I'm hoping to see a compare with both at max brightness.
Is it worth the upgrade from a pixel 7 pro to pixel 9 pro XL?
No
Actually maybe yeah,
If you experience call/ reception issues & you have the cash
Depends, if you have any issues with your phone then maybe. But if you're happy I'd wait one more year.
nope
I would wait for the Pixel 10.
It'll come with the TSMC chip.
Watching on my pixel 8 Pro 1 TB 98% battery health that I bought only for 450 from another person. I really love it.

There tends to be some sort of improvement in every generation, the question is whether it matters for you. And waiting for some months after release can also reduce the amount you have to pay, at the expense of potentially less update time left, which is still high for the google phones.
This is helpful! I have the 8 pro and have been considering uograding with the good trade in value 🤷🏾♀️
Glad it was helpful! I don't think it's worth the upgrade but if the trade in is incredible and you don't care why not
Same. $699 trade in for the 8 pro plus the store credits plus the Google one 10% credit make it almost free.
Pixels have ergonomics down. Now they move to a new foundry for pixel 10 so the future looks good.
On my pixel 7 I tried Gemini live it is very impressive
I feel like the Pixel has finally reached its final form and I'm loving it. #teampixel #googlegangsta
I'll just wait for good number Pixel 10 Pro XL. Using Pixel 6 Pro.
The mobile is great no major difference from the previous mobile & and about the usage of the phone it depends from person to another for example I am using iphone and the battery goes out quickly and it is not as the company advertised so as I said it depends from person to another person thanks for your review on this phone I learned a lot about the phone
ohh i didnt know the G in the back if for Gemini
I need a Pixel 9 pro vs Fold 6...damn
It is worth to upgrade from p8 to p9?
Base model to base model?
No
nope
Niagara smootheness, sleek look and powerful features literally trash all the other launchers
So true I love it
I definitely do not like that launcher. It is a little weird.
Wifi 7 320MHz?
Could you not have done a speedtest to a wifi 7 router?
How many people who don't use Instagram even use the front camera on phones? I never do I don't take selfies. They're loving yourself too much.
I think I take 3 selfies a year minus the ones I take for my reviews
