I'd almost call the Pixel 9 Pro, really the Pixel 9 XL mini... I was somewhat stunned by them saying they wanted the Pro features in a smaller device. Personally, I think many of us are tired of 'smaller' devices and want bigger. I'd almost just want a 9 XL... that being said, I loved the days that the XL version of Pixels just meant bigger sizes. I'm not a fan of having a nerfed option. Less RAM (really noticeable between the 8 and the 8 Pro), lesser selfie cams, no telephoto, lesser display options.
Sigh... then they really rub it in with the extra bonuses for the Pro models. More in store credit, free Gemini Advanced. It really leaves the 9 out in the cold it feels.
What model excites you?
