The Pixel 9 Pro is a compact, full-featured flagship with all of the bells and whistles of its bigger XL sibling. The Pixel 9 Pro packs in extra hardware inside what is essentially the same footprint as the non-Pro Pixel 9.
The Pixel 9 Pro packs a 48MP, 5x optical periscope telephoto camera - the same as the Pixel 9 Pro XL. It also features ultra-wideband (UWB) technology, which allows for short-range, high-accuracy wireless communication.
The term ‘compact’ may no longer fit as the Pixel 9 Pro — like the Pixel 9 — is a little larger than the Pixel 8, featuring a larger 6.3" FHD+ OLED screen with 120Hz refresh rate and a 30% max brightness increase.
The updated design now features two flat Gorilla Glass Victus 2 panels, a new flat aluminum frame (still IP68-rated), and a more prominent yet smaller camera bar with clear borders.
The Google Tensor G4 chip inside all new Pixel 9 phones contains 8 next-generation CPU cores, a faster GPU, more energy-efficient (and improved) modem and is coupled with more RAM.
The Google Pixel 9 Pro has a 50MP primary camera, in addition to the 42MP front camera (selfie camera) that is also ultrawide. And there is a new 48MP ultrawide-angle camera with a bright autofocus lens.
