Google’s Pixel 9 Pro XL is finally here and I’ve been excited for it after using the Pixel 8 Pro for nearly an entire year. There’s always ongoing competition to see which are the best phones around, but the Pixel 9 Pro XL gains new upgrades that make it a superb contender.
On top of the usual hardware upgrades, Google continues to focus heavily on artificial intelligence — proving to me that the Pixel 9 Pro XL is the AI phone to beat. But not everyone’s sold on Pixel 9 AI features unless they use them religiously, which is why it’s important for successive devices to always make iterative improvements around battery life, display brightness, and much more.
