Key Points
- Pixel 9 Pro XL is the biggest Pixel yet, but it’s slightly smaller than its predecessors.
- The new phone has a boxier look, similar to iPhones.
- Pixel Watch 3 needs a newer Android phone to work.
Google’s upcoming Pixel 9 Pro XL is shaping up to be a giant leap for the Pixel lineup.
We’ve all seen the leaks, but let’s break down how this new phone stacks up against its older brothers. Google is splitting its big phones into two this year: the Pixel 9 Pro XL, which is huge, and the Pixel 9 Pro, which is still big but a bit smaller.
Comparing the Pixel 9 Pro XL to past models, it’s clear Google is refining its design. The phone is getting a boxier look, similar to what we see on iPhones. While it’s the biggest Pixel ever, it’s interestingly smaller than the Pixel 6 Pro and 7 Pro. This is likely due to slimmer edges and better use of space.
On the software side, Google is making some changes for its next smartwatch, the Pixel Watch 3. To use this new watch, you’ll need an Android phone running Android 10 or later. This isn’t a big deal for most people, but it’s something to keep in mind if you have an older phone.
We’re getting closer to the official launch, so expect more details soon. Are you excited about the Pixel 9 Pro XL? Let us know your thoughts!
