Google Pixel 9 Series (9/9 Pro/9 Pro XL/9 Pro Fold)

Google just sent me a 10% off coupon for the Pixel 9 Pro XL after I made the purchase. I checked and sure enough it knocks 10% off the price of the XL. So now I am seriously leaning on returning my current XL, waiting for my trade in price of $540 to clear for my 7 Pro and use that and my $200 store credit which if I read right, I get to keep, towards the price of an XL. I could also wait for them to drop the price of the XL and be even further ahead, cause the coupon expires late March 2025. 
This is why I've decided to sell on my 2 week old S24U as well as my original Pixel Fold when my 9 Pro Fold lands with me, I do not need two top end spec phones
I'll reinstate my Pixel 4XL for my business mobile (only need it for calls/messages and a bit of Whatsapp etc)
Is anyone using the regular vanilla pixel 9? or mostly pros? Wondering if the regular 9 works well?
If I hadn't gone pro XL, I would have had the mint green regular 9.
Love the looks of that phone.

I agree the color looks slick but for me it's XL all the way. I've own small (P4a), regular P6 and the largest size (9 XL). The XL phone size is perfect for me and I love the look of the XL. I would have liked to have seen last years colors of the 8 Pro offered on the XL, in particular Mint Green and Bay.
I have the S24 Ultra as my main phone so the Pixel 9 is more than enough for my "spare" phone. It was a Pixel 5 but the battery is terrible so took advantage of the good trade in with Google.
Pixel 9 is overkill for my spare, never mind 9 Pro or 9 Pro XL. 🤣
Did you edit these ? The shots of the dog look good but the other shots looked muted and flat which is unlike the Pixels.
Yeah I edited them to take all the colour out. 🙄.
No they are straight out the camera.
Screen protectors are here, phone should be here any minute now. Going to put the screen protector on before I even turn the phone on.
Don't want a repeat of what happened with my S24 Ultra.

I like the design of the new LX, and I'm tempted to get one. Now that the three big players have homogenized, it's no surprise that their designs are starting to look alike. Even Apple is changing their lens placement on the back to be more similar to the others. While Apple has a more refined build quality, the most distinguishing aspect of these devices will be the software. In some ways, I think Google looks pretty impressive in this regard. 🧐

Exactly what I do every time, more so as when you unbox it and take the screen cover off, they're nigh on dust free, so it's the best time to get the screen protector installed
Once that's done you can smudge it with your fingerprints all you like 😂
This phone really is outstanding. I got to say those small little upgrades are noticeable on my end. I did my battery test overnight and the phone sips like my iPhone.
Screen protectors ended up being junk so got a refund from Amazon. Will have to order some different ones. 😅
