Pixel 9 Pro XL Dual SIM Obsidian 16GB RAM 1TB 5G - International Version

Highlights

• The result is noticeably longer battery life than its predecessors. The 9 Pro XL lasts up to 52 hours with more than seven hours of actively using the screen on a mixture of 5G and wifi. That is a solid two days between charges and rivals some of the longest-lasting phones available.
• The big new additions are all AI related. The 9 Pro XL is one of the first phones to run Google’s latest Gemini Nano AI models on the device, which has enabled a series of new features injecting AI into all sorts of places, from the keyboard to the weather app.
• Magic Editor in Google Photos has a few upgrades, too, including the ability to automatically reframe an image by cropping or expanding the canvas using generative AI. The “reimagine” feature goes one step further and can fully recast a photo using a text prompt, such as making it look like a cityscape is sunken under water. There are safeguards on what you can insert into images, but as with all things they can be circumvented. How far you go with it is up to you.
• It captures very detailed and crisp photos across the board but is particularly good in low light and preserves detail in high-contrast scenes very well. The Pixel has an additional 2x zoom option on the main and 5x telephoto cameras, the latter producing the equivalent of a 10x optical zoom to meaningfully close the distance to objects. The additional digital zoom up to 30x is very good in bright light, too.
• The new 42MP selfie camera on the front is noticeably brighter and a bit sharper than previous iterations. But Google’s new “Add Me” feature may be the best for group shots. It blends two photos taken back to back to allow the photographer to be added to group shots by swapping over camera duties with another member of the party for the second photo. An augmented reality overlay shows where the additional people should position themselves to be in the combined shot. It works pretty well but requires the second photographer to know how to use the mode properly so took a bit of practice to get right and it sometimes couldn’t handle certain objects, such blending legs erroneously into the edges of tables.
• Pixel 9 Pro XL with Gemini is the most powerful Pixel yet, and now comes in two sizes; it has a pro-level camera and it’s engineered by Google, so it gets the best of Google AI first
• Unlocked Android phone gives you the flexibility to change carriers and choose your own data plan[1]; it works with Google Fi, Verizon, T-Mobile, AT&T, and other major carriers
• Google Pixel 9 Pro’s triple rear camera is the most powerful Pixel Camera yet; get high-quality video up to 20x with Super Res Zoom Video[2]; enhance your videos up to 8K with Video Boost; and take sharp videos in low light with Night Sight Video
• Make your photos better than you can imagine with Google’s AI; take a picture and be in it too with Add Me[4]; Best Take helps everyone look their best[2]; and with Magic Editor, you can reframe photos, reimagine the scenery, and more[4]
