[Exclusive] Google Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, and Pixel 9 Pro Fold promo material reveals design, specs, AI, and other features
Update (August 2025): With the Pixel 10 series launch just weeks away, the Pixel 9 lineup is nearing the end of its primary cycle. Over the past year, the Pixel 9 Pro and Pixel 9 Pro XL have stood out for their compact yet premium designs, reliable cameras, and Google’s Gemini AI integrations. However, buyers should note that the Pixel 9 series has already seen multiple discounts in India, making them more affordable than at launch. If you’re looking for a value flagship with long-term software support (seven years of updates), the Pixel 9 phones remain a strong option even in late 2025. However, power users may prefer waiting to see what the Pixel 10 brings, especially the new Tensor G5 chip.
Original story follows…
There have been numerous leaks and rumours about the Google Pixel 9 series, but this newly leaked promo material acquired by 91mobiles courtesy tipster Steve Hemmerstoffer (OnLeaks) could be the most accurate representation yet. We are bringing to you the marketing images of the Google Pixel 9 series including the Pixel 9 Pro XL and Pixel 9 Pro Fold, which showcase the new design, specifications, AI and other features of the new Pixels.

According to the marketing materials, the Google Pixel 9 series comes in new colours like dark grey, light grey, off-white (rumoured to be called Porcelain White), and pink. The sides are polished or glossy while the back panel is soft matte. The new camera island gives these phones a distinct look. This island appears to have an obvious protrusion from the back panel. The Pro models could have three lenses and the regular Pixel could have two lenses. More on the sensors later.
The camera island is shaped like a rectangle with rounded corners on the Pixel 9 Pro Fold. On the non-foldable (Pixel 9), it is oblong-shaped. The front side has a punch hole cutout for the selfie snapper. The surrounding bezels also look negligible.
In addition to the design, we also get to know the key specifications of the Pixel 9 series. This includes the display, cameras, and chipset. The Pixel 9 has a 6.3-inch Actua display, the Pixel 9 Pro has a 6.3-inch and the XL model has a 6.8-inch Super Actua display. The Pixel 9 Pro Fold has a 6.3-inch Actua Front (cover screen) and an 8-inch Super Actua Flex display (inner screen).
The Pixel 9 has a 50MP wide camera and a 48MP ultra-wide snapper. The Pixel 9 Pro and XL variant has a 50MP main camera, a 48MP ultra-wide, and a 48MP telephoto sensor. The Pixel 9 Pro Fold has a 48MP main camera, a 10.5MP ultra-wide snapper and a 10.8MP telephoto sensor. The Pixel 9 has a 10.5MP selfie clicker. The Pixel 9 Pro and XL models have a 42MP front camera and the Pixel 9 Pro Fold will have a 10MP selfie shooter.
All four Pixel 9 series phones will be powered by the Tensor G4, Google’s new flagship chipset. The Pixel 9 ships with up to 12GB RAM while the Pixel 9 Pro, Pro XL, and Pro Fold have up to 16GB RAM.
Google says these phones are engineered by it and designed for AI. It promises seven years of security updates and Pixel Drops (software updates with new Pixel-exclusive features). You will get Emergency SOS with the new Pixels that shoot crisis alerts about nearby fires or floods. It also claims to thwart malware and phishing scams.
The new Pixel phones will have Pixel Screenshots, which help “you save info that you want to remember later – like events, places and more”. You can open Pixel Screenshots later to find what you are forgetting or missing. In a way, it is like a watered-down Microsoft Recall feature. The promo material also shows the various ways Gemini AI and Circle to Search can be helpful. Last but not least, the Pixel 9 Pro XL (and probably other models) will come with a 1-meter USB-C to USB-C cable (USB 2.0) in the box. Google’s Gemini Advanced AI model will be bundled for free for one year.
