Google reveals Pixel 9 Pro and 9 Pro Fold early, showing off new design
In This Article
Google has given us the first official look at thePixel 9 ProandPixel 9 Pro Foldin a teaser video ahead of theAugust 13 launchevent for 2024’s flagships.
The often-leaked phones have been spied for the first time at Google’s behest in a brief video published on Thursday.
Pixel 8 Pro Price Drop
At just £634.99, you won’t find a more feature-packed Android phone than the Pixel 8 Pro, making for an easy and affordable upgrade.
First up, we get a proper look at the redesigned camera bar that no longer spans the entire width of the phone’s rear casing. There’s a new rounded protrusion that is inset from the phone’s edges.
We don’t know for sure, but it also looks a little bit thicker than previous models, but that’ll be revealed on August 13.
The form factor of the phone itself looks to be slightly thicker and more iPhone like than the slimlinePixel 8 Pro. However, this will also be something we’ll need to wait until the Made by Google event less than a month away. Other than that, there isn’t much to glean from the 30-second trailer published today.
Google had quite a cute (perhaps too cute) way of getting its message across about the role Google’s Gemini AI is going to play in the new phone.
“Write me a breakup letter,” Gemini is asked in the on-screen graphic. “Tell them l’ve found something new. That actually feels magical. Not just the same old thing. Oh, and have it start, “Dear Old Phone.””
Whether, Gemini’s offerings are enough to convince users to upgrade their phones remains to be seen. Google is also expected to reveal the standard Pixel 9, thePixel 9 Pro Foldand the Pixel Watch 3 during the event.
We’ll be covering the event in full, as it happens.
