Google Pixel 9 Series

So, Google finally dropped the Pixel 9 series !​

Camera Magic​

Let's start with the obvious: the camera. Google's been flexing its AI muscle for a while now, and the Pixel 9 series is the ultimate showcase. From clicking those perfect selfies to capturing the chaos of Diwali, the camera is your new best friend. And hey, who doesn't love a phone that can magically erase unwanted photobombers?

Design Boom​

The Pixel 9 series looks like it just stepped out of a sci-fi movie. Sleek, modern, and with colors that pop like Holi, it's a head-turner for sure. But let's be real, looks aren't everything. It's got to feel good in your hand too, right? Well, early reports suggest it's as comfy as your favorite pair of jeans.

Performance Showstopper​

Google's own Tensor chip is powering these bad boys, and from what we've heard, it's a smooth operator. Whether you're gaming, editing videos, or just scrolling through Instagram, it's handling everything like a pro. And let's not forget about the battery life - we're all ears on how that holds up with our typical Indian usage patterns.

India-Specific Jitters​

Now, here's the million-dollar question: how does the Pixel 9 series fare in India? We're talking about network connectivity, software optimization for our local apps, and of course, the price tag. Is it worth shelling out those extra bucks compared to other flagships in the market? Only time (and some hands-on reviews) will tell.
So, what are your thoughts on the Pixel 9 series? Are you planning to upgrade? Let's discuss!

Looks like an iPhone, priced like an iPhone but you still don't get an iPhone... do you ?
The pricing is atrocious as usual. It is unclear if they are even launching the Pro here.
Also probably merge this -

wait till they launch made in India 9 series with same pricing, like they did with Pixel 8.

AI design.

I would be getting the Fold 9 and let go of my regular 8, just waiting on camera impressions.

I think the previous back looked much better, hopefully this means pixel 8 pricing will be sane in next BBD

When are they ditching Samsung fabs and making the tensor chips with TSMC??

what black magic is samsung providing google for them to use exynos? or are they using their own harware instead of rebranded exynos these days

Are they even releasing the Pixel 9 pro (non-XL)? all the listings pointed to by the store page are for the XL variant only.

Great news. Worst phone in terms of value depreciation amongst other things. Anyway, hope the upcoming BBD will have good discounts on pixel 7 and 8 now.

No, they are not !
Since they know that people might love it, so they are not launching it in India !

Wait for the end of the year for the price to drop drastically , then it'll be a good deal i guess.

most reviews seem to point that tensor is far behind exynos, qualcomm and of course apple.
