Mere hours in the past some CAD-based renders of the upcoming Google Pixel 9 Professional have been outed, and now it is time for its smaller and extra reasonably priced sibling to get the very same therapy. Women and gents, meet the Google Pixel 9.
Proper off the bat, one factor clearly stands out. Not like the Pixel 8, the Pixel 9 has three cameras on the rear, one in all which clearly has a periscope zoom lens. This can be a enormous replace for the ‘vanilla’ Pixel line, and one which brings it rather more in tune with the Professional, spec-wise.
Shifting on, the opposite apparent factor is that Google has additionally been infested by the ‘flat sides’ illness began by Apple some time in the past. Gone is the curved body of the Pixel 8, in is the iPhone-like flatness. We do not particularly thoughts if a body is flat or not, however we do really feel the necessity to level out that each firm doing the identical factor is simply… boring and repetitive?
Anyway, the digital camera island is completely different too. It is not spilling into the body.

It simply does not finish within the body, it now ends close to it. It additionally appears to be created from metallic as earlier than. Whereas it is not equivalent to what we have seen in earlier Pixels, this clearly nonetheless makes the cellphone recognizable as a Pixel.
Over on the entrance, you possibly can see the body as a result of its flatness. The display screen bezels appear to be completely symmetrical which could be very welcome, and within the high center part of the display screen there is a single hole-punch cutout for the selfie digital camera.
In response to the supply of those renders, the Pixel 9 will measure 152.8 x 71.9 x 8.5 mm (whereas the digital camera bump will take the thickness to 12 mm). That makes it marginally taller, wider, and slimmer than its predecessor. It is anticipated to sport a 6.1-inch display screen, which is smaller than the Pixel 8’s however might need a barely completely different facet ratio.
No different particulars concerning the Pixel 9 are recognized but, however that is not an enormous downside contemplating it is solely anticipated to change into official in about eight months. Absolutely by then we’ll have been drowning in leaks for some time, because it at all times occurs with Pixels. Keep tuned and we’ll let you already know once we discover out extra.
