Google’s annual Pixel launch event is happening next month which is quite earlier than expected. Plenty of leaks and rumors have revealed key details about the next-generation Pixel 9 series and Pixel Watch 3. The most notable addition to this year’s slab phone lineup is the comeback of an XL model that was last found on the Pixel 4 series. Now, a YouTube channel has compared the Pixel 9 Pro XL with the Pixel 8 Pro side-by-side. 

Pixel 9 Pro XL compared to Pixel 8 Pro

In the short video, the Pixel 9 Pro XL looks similar to what we saw in the leaked renders. It has a boxy design with a flat frame, significantly rounded corners, and a horizontal protruding camera island that does not stretch to the sides of the back panel. A closer look also confirms a periscope lens and there is of course a temperature sensor. 

The Pixel 9 Pro XL looks slightly compact compared to the Pixel 8 Pro. This is because the latter has a slim profile compared to the boxy design on the upcoming offering. Another difference between the two devices is that the camera island on the Pixel 9 Pro XL has a matte finish compared to the glossy look on the Pixel 8 Pro. The side frame also lacks a glossy finish. Meanwhile, the back panel on both phones have a matte texture. 

The Pixel 9 Pro XL is seen in a Matte Grey color option. It is also expected to be available in Porcelain shade. This is everything the leaked hands-on video reveals about the device. As per rumors, the entire Google Pixel 9 series is expected to be powered by a Tensor G4 chipset. The devices are confirmed to come with on-device Gemini AI.
