After months of leak frenzy, Google today officially unveiled its latest Pixel 9 Series.

The lineup comprises the vanilla Pixel 9, the Pixel 9 Pro and its XL variant. Also joining the series is the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, which we’ll cover in another article.

All models feature the Google Tensor G4 chipset built on a 4-nm process and paired with a Titan M2 security coprocessor.

Other key highlights include support for Emergency SOS via satellite connectivity and Google’s promise of up to seven major OS upgrades.
