The video isn\u2019t big on details, but there is some footage of the phone in action that confirms one major suspicion about the Pixel 9 Pro. The absolutely gigantic camera bump is real and is ready to make obvious indentations in pockets everywhere.<\/p>\n<div class=\"caas-iframe-wrapper\" data-embed-anchor=\"df9104ab-544c-5493-a085-f7f01d890513\">\n<div class=\"caas-iframe youtube\" style=\"padding-bottom:56%\" data-type=\"youtube\">\n<blockquote data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/OMVpP-Zam1A?si=Qcl76Ao6f4unhb04\"><p><noscript><iframe title=\"Introducing the Google Pixel 9 Pro\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/OMVpP-Zam1A?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/noscript><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Just look at that glorious thing. The bump looks like a 3D approximation of Bender from <em>Futurama\u2019s<\/em> head. One thing is for sure. If you buy the Pixel 9 Pro later this year, be sure to also buy a newly-designed case. There\u2019s no way previous cases will fit around that monstrosity.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond the camera bump, Google\u2019s video teases heavy integration with the company\u2019s Gemini family of AI models. Affiliated marketing copy simply states \u201coh hi, AI\u201d and the video shows a chatbot answering a query. This emphasis on AI should surprise absolutely nobody.
