Last week the ‘vanilla’ Google Pixel 9 leaked in not one, but two hands-on videos, and now it’s time for the Pixel 9 Pro XL to get the exact same treatment. It was spotted on TikTok today in two quick videos.
The first one is comparing it to the Pixel 9, which will be smaller than the Pro XL.
The second video shows us the Pixel 9 Pro XL alongside Samsung’s Galaxy S24 Ultra, in order to get a good feel for the upcoming Pixel’s size and how it compares to Samsung’s biggest flagship.
Google is unveiling the Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, Pixel 9 Pro XL, and Pixel 9 Pro Fold on August 13, at a surprise event that’s taking place two months earlier than usual. We assumed the company may have chosen to do that in order to prevent leaks, but that’s clearly not working at all.
The Pixel 9 will be the successor to the Pixel 8, while the Pixel 9 Pro XL will be the successor to the Pixel 8 Pro. The Pixel 9 Pro will have the Pixel 9 Pro XL’s innards in a package about the size of the Pixel 9, while the Pixel 9 Pro Fold is the successor to the original Pixel Fold. Hopefully that explains Google’s strategy this year.
Yesterday pricing for all of these devices got leaked, and it was a mixed bag – some prices are staying the same compared to last year, but a lot of them are going up – Samsung did this too with the Galaxy Z Fold6 and Z Flip6 earlier this week, so it’s turning into somewhat of an unfortunate trend.
