A day after the Pixel 9 Professional leaked, we’re now seeing renders that supposedly present the vanilla Google Pixel 9 – and the included particulars are a mixture of good and, arguably, divisive.
Shared as soon as once more by leaker @OnLeaks, however this time in collaboration with 91Mobiles, these renders present a lot the identical design as we noticed within the current Pixel 9 Professional leak, which is to say a vastly completely different design to the Google Pixel 8.
The edges are flat fairly than rounded, bringing it extra according to most of the greatest telephones from rival manufacturers, just like the iPhone 15 line and the Samsung Galaxy S24 sequence, and the Pixel 8’s digital camera visor has been changed with a lozenge-shared horizontal island that runs virtually from edge to edge on the telephone’s rear.
As with the Pixel 8’s design that is more likely to meet with combined reactions, however not like the Pixel 8’s design it doesn’t massively stand out (and we’re fairly keen on the blue shade proven right here).
In any case, whereas the design is the probably divisive a part of this leak, the excellent news is that three digital camera lenses are proven, with the supply claiming that one in all them might be a telephoto digital camera.
From the sq. form of the lens it’s possible a periscope design, which might enable for longer-distance zoom than standard telephoto snappers. The Pixel 8 Professional has a 5x zoom periscope lens, so maybe we’ll see that right here, however that’s hypothesis for now.
The supply claims to not know what the opposite lenses are, however one will in fact be a normal wide-angle lens, whereas the third will most likely be an ultra-wide, because the Pixel 8 has an ultra-wide digital camera, though there’s an outdoor probability Google will exchange this with a macro digital camera or one thing else.
In any case, the Pixel 8 solely has two rear cameras – a large and an ultra-wide, so the addition of a 3rd for telephoto photographs might imply the Pixel 9 is a considerably higher telephone for images.
As images is among the Pixel line’s standout options already, this might be nice information for anybody who needs probably the greatest digital camera telephones however doesn’t wish to shell out for the Pixel 9 Professional, or have that telephone’s possible large display.
A bigger telephone with a smaller display
Talking of which, this leak additionally mentions that the vanilla Pixel 9 will apparently have a 6.1-inch show, which might make it marginally smaller than the Pixel 8’s 6.2-inch display.
The general dimensions of the telephone are mentioned to be 152.8 x 71.9 x 8.5mm (or 12mm together with the digital camera bump). That oddly would make it barely bigger (albeit marginally slimmer) than the Pixel 8, regardless of the supposedly smaller display. For reference, the Pixel 8 is 150.5 x 70.8 x 8.9mm.
Given these barely questionable dimensions, coupled with how early it’s for Google Pixel 9 leaks, we’d take all of this with a pinch of salt; however this explicit supply does have nearly one of the best monitor file within the enterprise.
The Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Professional most likely gained’t be out till October, and there’ll possible be tons extra leaks earlier than then, which ought to begin to give us a clearer image of what to anticipate, and whether or not this early leak is correct.
