Traditionally, Pixel phones haven't offered a ton of choice. Mainline models launch in a standard and Pro variant, and Google typically launches a budget Pixel A-series model half a year later. This year, however, the Pixel 9 series is offering a lot more choice than usual, doubling the number of options available in previous years.
You can choose to keep the price lower by picking the Google Pixel 9 or, for the first time ever, upgrade the hardware and cameras with a Google Pixel 9 Pro without being forced to use a larger phone. However, Google also offers the Pixel 9 Pro XL, a larger phone with the same Pro-level cameras and features as the Pixel 9 Pro but with a larger display and battery.
