Highlights Google has launched four Pixel 9 models: Pixel 9, 9 Pro, 9 Pro XL, and 9 Pro Fold, with the Fold being a distinct foldable phone. Both Pixel 9 and 9 Pro share the same 6.3-inch size, while the 9 Pro XL offers a larger 6.8-inch screen. The Pro models have additional features like a 48MP telephoto lens and higher RAM. Google has just released its new Pixel 9 series. However, the latest Pixel lineup has left many users a bit confused. While the Pixel 9 is the base model, the differences between it and the Pro versions are not as straightforward. The confusion becomes even more glaring because of the two new size options in Pixel 9 Pro models. Let’s try to wave off some of this confusion. How Many Pixel 9 Models Did Google Launch? Google has launched four Pixel 9 models. First question, how many Pixel models do we have in the Pixel 9 series. Google has launched four devices under the Pixel 9 name: the Pixel 9, 9 Pro, 9 Pro XL, and the Pixel 9 Pro Fold. The main three models—the Pixel 9, 9 Pro, and 9 Pro XL—are quite similar. Meanwhile, the 9 Pro Fold stands out as a foldable phone. Pixel 9 and Its Sizes Both Pixel 9 and 9 Pro share the same 6.3-inch size. Google has changed its approach this year. Instead of including a larger Pro model and a smaller base model in the series, both the Pixel 9 and 9 Pro now share the same 6.3-inch size. This size is slightly bigger than last year’s Pixel 8. Google is admittedly trying to cater for every type of userbase including those users who prefer a more compact phone but with better features. The company has also tried to target another section of userbase who wants a larger device with the same features. For them, Google has introduced the Pixel 9 Pro XL with a 6.8-inch screen size. Another confusion that most users will face - the Pixel 9 Pro and 9 Pro XL are almost identical in terms of features. The only differences are size, weight, and battery capacity. This means users can choose the size that suits them without sacrificing any of the Pro features. Pixel 9 vs. Pixel 9 Pro: Key Differences The Pro model also offers a higher screen resolution of 1280 x 2056, compared to the Pixel 9’s 1080p display. There are some notable differences between the Pixel 9 and the more expensive, Pixel 9 Pro. The Pixel 9 Pro includes a 48MP telephoto lens, allowing for Super Res Zoom up to 30x and optical zoom up to 10x, as well as the ability to upscale videos to 8K with Google’s Video Boost and use the Zoom Enhance tool. These features are not available on the base Pixel 9. The Pixel 9 Pro also has 16GB of RAM compared to the Pixel 9’s 12GB. 9 Pro also sports a Super Actua display with brightness up to 3,000 nits, while the Pixel 9’s Actua display peaks at 2,700 nits. The Pro model also offers a higher screen resolution of 1280 x 2056, compared to the Pixel 9’s 1080p display. Additionally, the Pixel 9 has slightly thicker bezels and comes in more vibrant colours, such as the Peony colour, compared to the Rose Quartz option on the Pro.

(Image Credit - 9To5Google) Before the phone reaches end users, 9To5Google has given us an exclusive first look at the unboxing experience of the Pixel 9, 9 Pro, and 9 Pro XL: Google has taken a new approach with the Pixel 9 series, offering an eco-friendly unboxing experience. The packaging now features a recycled cardboard look. The brand has removed the usual four-colour “G” logo and adopted a more minimalist logo design. As expected, the box doesn't include a power brick. If you want faster charging, you'll need to buy the official 45W power brick separately or opt for a compatible third-party charger. Inside the box, you’ll find a SIM tool and some basic documentation. The phone itself comes in a new paper encasement without any adhesive screen protection. FAQs Q1.
