Google is preparing to reveal its next-generation Pixel smartphones and smartwatch on August 13, which is earlier than its usual launch schedule. Speculation and leaks about the tech giant's forthcoming hardware have been gaining momentum. Recently, tipster Sudhanshu Ambhore released a clear render of the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro XL, showcasing both devices in two colors.
Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro XL New Leaked Render
Earlier this month, a leaked live image of the Pixel 9 displayed the device in a Pink color. The latest render offers a clearer view of this same shade, with a slightly different color on the horizontal camera island compared to the rest of the back panel. This Pink color option is a refreshing change from the more common Black, Blue, and Green seen on most smartphones today.
On the other hand, the Pixel 9 Pro XL appears in a Porcelain color, similar to last year's Pixel 8 Pro. A periscope lens can be seen within the pill-shaped island, along with a temperature sensor located below the LED flash unit.
Design and Specifications
A significant design change from last year's Pixel 8 series to the upcoming Pixel 9 lineup is the adoption of a boxy design with a flat frame, as shown in the leaked renders. The horizontal camera bridge has been narrowed on the sides. Additionally, the Pixel 9 series is expected to be powered by a Tensor G4 chipset and offer up to 16GB of RAM.
Pricing details indicate that the Pixel 9 and 9 Pro may start at EUR 899 and EUR 1,099 for the base 128GB model, respectively. The Pixel 9 Pro XL is rumored to have a starting price of EUR 1,199 for the same base variant as its other counterparts.
