The latest leak reveals some images of the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro XL prototypes.
According to Phone Arena, the latest leak about the Pixel 9 series reveals some images of the prototypes of the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro XL. The initial videos posted on TikTok also show major design differences between the standard Pixel 9 phone and the high-end Pixel 9 Pro XL.
While these are still pre-production prototypes, they'll likely be close to what we'll see when Google unveils the new Pixel 9 series on August 13.
One interesting thing you can see is that the back of the Pixel 9 Pro XL is larger than the standard version and has a matte finish that helps keep fingerprints away. The image also shows that the standard Pixel 9 will have a glossy back instead of the matte finish of the premium version.
While the back of the Pixel 9 Pro XL has a matte finish, the edges of the device have a glossy material. Meanwhile, the standard Pixel 9 has the opposite design with a glossy back and matte edges.
The Pixel 9 is expected to have a 6.24-inch display while the Pixel 9 Pro will have a 6.34-inch display. The Pixel 9 Pro XL will have the largest display at 6.73 inches. All three phones will be powered by the Tensor G4 application processor (AP).
There are also rumors of a fourth Pixel 9 phone, the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, which would be a second-generation Pixel Fold 2 with a new name.
By pushing back the launch date of the next-generation Pixel Fold from June last year to August or September this year, Google may be planning to equip its foldable phone with the Tensor G4 processor compared to the Tensor G2 used on its predecessor.
According to Android Authority, a leaked video on Tiktok posted by the account @PixoPhone shows a close-up of the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro XL phones.
Apart from the size difference, we can clearly see the entire body design. We can see three lenses in the camera bar, LED flash and temperature sensor. Along the edges of the device are the power button and volume rocker.
While the SIM tray, USB-C port, and speaker can be found at the bottom. On the top edge, the high-band 5G antenna can be seen.
