    Old generations of Galaxy S and Note not only had inferior Exynos, but also used to have isocell.
    While Snapdragon paired with sony exmor for USA/Canada at lower price.

      Tons of chinese phones with less ram , less storage and worse cam system have been sold outside China for higher prices than chinese variants.

      Nothing new

          The article is wrong. Google India store lists the display as LTPO. Wifi 7 and Google VPN are still missing but that is due to goverment regulation.

              This can't be it because, when I checked the Google Store in my country (Malaysia), it says the 9 Pro XL display is a Super Actua display (LTPO) on the spec sheet.

                So not only they have inferior hardware then they have the audacity to price it even more than what they cost every where else.

                  Pixel 9 pro xl cost $300 more in India compared to USA for 512/16.

                    What the fudge

                    This is such a cheap bih move

                    Even with all these cuts, the phones are so fudging expensive.

                    You deserve to day Google

                          Galaxy S and Moto Edge by early November already cost half compared to price they are in February/ March.

                          G85 barely more than few weeks here, price has been cut 25% on Motorola website.
                          Edge 40 is today half of its initial price. That since before edge 50 pro got announced.

                          50 Fusion announced 400 euros in EU, but less than 250 dollars in India.
                          Taxes do not make product basically 100% more expensive.
