I'm truly excited that they're doing their event in August a whole 2 months early!! I think this will help Google and Pixel because I think the October release was to late in the year!! Great things coming, I think Google just needs to do a few things to make Pixel 9 and future devices perfect!

Makes sense with Samsung’s event being in August and Apple’s event being in September, and they’re Google’s biggest competitors.

I honestly don’t care that tensor g4 isn’t a massive upgrade in geekbench or whatever. If they can reign in the thermals a bit and put a better modem on there, in par with maybe qualcom’s best from a year or 2 ago that's upgrading the weaknesses I care about most in a pixel. Very few of us actually take advantage of all that processing power, on device AI may change that but most AI these days is not on device.

I'm in the same boat. Coming from iPhone, wanting to make the switch to Pixel. The design of 9 is very lackluster compared to the 8. And also the protruding cameras just seem very odd to me. Don't really know if i'll get it to be honest. *shrugs*

@heavenleigh111 15 күн бұрын

What's the difference between how the Pixel 9 is supposed to look compared to the iPhones you two are using? The only difference I see is that instead of the cameras being in a largely protruding square block they are in an oblong rectangle and it only has a dot for the selfie camera instead of that ridiculously huge "island" taking up such a large portion of the screen
