In summary
- Rumors have surfaced online about the Google Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro XL.
- The Pixel 9 image shows the previously leaked pink color scheme, while the Pixel 9 Pro XL render shows a porcelain color.
Google has already given us glimpses at the Pixel 9 series, and there’s been no shortage of renders and real-world images. Now, a leaker has posted renders of the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro XL.
Sudhanshu Ambhore posted two renders of the Pixel 9 series on the X, with one image showing the Pixel 9 and the other the Pixel 9 Pro XL.
The Pixel 9 render shows off the previously leaked pink color scheme, which is a pretty striking shade compared to the usual blacks and grays that you see in the smartphone world. This isn’t the first time we’ve seen a Pixel 9 in pink, though, as a real-world video previously showed off this variant . Meanwhile, the Pixel 9 Pro XL is shown off in an apparent Porcelain color option.
These aren’t the only Pixel 9 series leaks in recent days. Android Authority and contributor Kamila Wojciechowska revealed some significant Pixel 9 series camera upgrades. More specifically, the vanilla Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro series get a 50MP IMX858 ultra-wide camera, while the Pixel 9 Pro series also gets a 50MP IMX858 periscope camera. The Pixel 9’s default selfie camera also gets autofocus, while the Pro phones get a 50MP selfie shooter (IMX858).
It also appears that the Pixel 9 series will use a new modem, after images of an apparent prototype pointed to the Samsung Exynos Modem 5400. This is encouraging news for those who want more reliable connectivity on their Google phones.
Google is launching the Pixel 9 series, including the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, on August 13, so there’s less than a month to go before the official reveal.
