There are rumors that Google will introduce at least three new smartphones—the Google Pixel 9 Pro, Pixel 9 Pro, and Pixel 9 Pro XL—at its yearly hardware showcase in October.

Recently, live hands-on images of the Pixel 9 Pro have surfaced, including one that displays it alongside the iPhone 15 Pro Max.
The Pixel 9 Pro XL is poised to be the natural successor to the Pixel 8 Pro in terms of size while maintaining a footprint akin to the standard Pixel 9 but with enhanced professional features such as the periscope telephoto rear camera evident in the image below.
The Pixel 9 Pro is set to match the iPhone 15 Pro in size, boasting a range of enhanced features over its predecessors. The new Tensor G4 chipset will power this model and will feature a significant upgrade in memory with 16 GB of RAM supplied by Micron, which is 4 GB more than what was offered in the Pixel 8 Pro. Additionally, Samsung provides the UFS storage for this device. Sattelite connectivity will enabled through Samsung’s Exynos Modem 5400.
