        RealLifePhones, 26 Jun 2024Smart move. Pixel's launched way to late in the year.That wouldn't be a problem if they released them with the latest arm processor cores. instead they are always rocking a generation behind everyone else.

          Launching earlier at least lets them be compared against last year's flagships. Launching later instantly makes them look worse because SD8 g4 phones will be out around the same time.

          This way they can still pretend to be flagships. If they launched in Oct/Nov they are obviously midrange phones.

            Smart move. Pixel's launched way to late in the year.

              Actualphone, 26 Jun 2024Stick the Pixel fold, for gods sake, give us a Pixel XS!!! ... more•Pixel XS — 5.8"
              •Pixel — 6.3"
              •Pixel XL — 6.7"/6.8"

              This would be amazing. I would definitely buy the 6.3" one regardless, but this would be a good range of sizes.

                Stick the Pixel fold, for gods sake, give us a Pixel XS!!! 5.5"

                  This is a wonderful surprise!

                    Anonymous, 25 Jun 2024those will be the last "cheap" pixel phones... as... moreYes, it will be worth even if we pay extra bucks for pixel phones with snapdragon processors. Because it run smoothly for long time. Google software with snapdragon processors would be good combination.

                      Anonymous, 25 Jun 2024They gotta try get sales before iPhone 16 haha!That's not gonna happen. Google is not even a top tier Android brand.

                        I would guess that Google will announce it first and then put it on sale for the general public later, just like Sony is currently doing with their smartphones.

                          Pix, 26 Jun 2024Just get the 10You can also buy a cheap pixel 8 pro at Christmas or the 9 pro xl or whatever it will be called, used and wait for the 10th of next year and exchange it to reduce the price of the 10 pro xl in 2025

                            the last tensor garbo

                              Gooogol-plex, 25 Jun 2024What modem?The Samsung modem used in all the Tensor chipsets thus far. The 9 series phones may be the last ones to use a Samsung modem. Seeing as how Google doesn't make their own modem, with the 10 series phones next year, it's very likely they'll go with a Qualcomm modem for the TSMC made Tensor G5 chipset.

                                They should be doing this going forward. No more releasing it late in the year when next-gen SoC phones are around the corner.

                                  Just get the 10

                                    Probably also announcing some other things like a fold 2 and a new tablet

                                      Hahaha cause the intent beat it to everything that can be said about the Pixel 9 series besides a few things left.

                                      This isn't a surprise this is marketing team saving their are and existence lmao!

                                        They should either release the Pixel 9a now alongside the rest of the lineup or just forget about it altogether, as what has historically happened is that the regular Pixel is too similarly specced and too similarly priced that the A series phone becomes totally redundant.
