Google has plans to unveil its Pixel 9 series on August 13, 2024, but leaks have already started surfacing online. According to reports from 91mobiles, the marketing material for the new smartphones has been leaked, revealing some key details about the upcoming devices.
The design of the Pixel 9 series seems to match previous descriptions, with polished metal sides and matte rear panels. The smartphones will be available in four colors at launch: Rose Pink, Obsidian, Porcelain, and Hazel. Each model will feature a protruding camera island on the back, with different camera configurations.
The standard Pixel 9 will have a 50MP wide camera and a 48MP ultrawide snapper. The Pixel 9 Pro and XL will have the same cameras as the standard model, with an additional 48MP telephoto sensor. The Pixel 9 Pro Fold will also feature three lenses, but at lower resolutions compared to the other models.
Under the hood, all Pixel 9 smartphones will be powered by the Tensor G4 chipset. The standard Pixel 9 is expected to have 12GB of RAM, while the other models can have up to 16GB of RAM. While the performance improvements over the previous generation are expected to be modest, some reports suggest a 15% increase in performance.
The displays on the new Pixel 9 series will feature Actua technology, with varying screen sizes for each model. The base and Pixel 9 Pro will have a 6.3-inch display, the Pixel 9 Pro XL will have a 6.8-inch display, and the Pixel 9 Pro Fold will have a 6.3-inch Actua Front outer screen and an 8-inch Super Actua Flex display when unfolded.
In terms of features, the Pixel 9 series will bring back Circle to Search and Gemini, with a free year-long subscription to Gemini Advanced included for buyers. Two new key features highlighted in the leak are Emergency SOS, which protects users from malware and phishing attempts, and Pixel Screenshots, a feature similar to Microsoft Recall for saving information about images.
Overall, the leaked information gives us a good idea of what to expect from the upcoming Pixel 9 series. With the official unveiling event scheduled for August 13, we can expect more details to be revealed soon. Stay tuned for more updates on the latest Google Pixel smartphones.
