Google just unveiled the Pixel 9 Pro XL smartphone during its Made by Google event<\/a> and, boy oh boy, is it a doozy. This is a larger version of the Pixel 9 Pro. It ships with the brand-new Tensor G4 processor and 16GB of RAM. As with most modern handsets, it’s designed for AI tasks<\/a> and ships with a one-year subscription to Google\u2019s One AI Premium Plan. This allows for unfettered access to Google Gemini.<\/p>\n The camera system has been improved, and Pixel phones were already pretty dang good at snapping photos and shooting video. There\u2019s a triple rear camera, and an upgraded 42 MP front camera. Footage can be algorithmically enhanced to 8K and the company is finally bringing Super Res Zoom to videos.<\/p>\n It\u2019s important to note that the XL is really just a larger version of the Pixel 9 Pro. Beyond slightly faster charging and a bigger display, there aren\u2019t really any features to set it apart from its smaller cousin. That display, however, is pretty nice. It\u2019s a 6.8-inch Super Actua OLED screen that really pops, with Google promising it shows \u201ctrue-to-life colors, even in direct sunlight.\u201d This is because the brightness level has ticked up a bit to 3,000 nits. The Pixel 9 Pro XL starts at $1,100, and will be available in four colors. These include obsidian, rose quartz and hazel.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
