Amazon is calling this an early Black Friday sale and of the various offers that it includes, we focused in on the Google phones.

The older Pixel 8 series has deeper price cuts (and also has extra discounts for Prime Student subscribers).
Starting with the base Google Pixel 9, you get the new Tensor G4 chipset, which is faster and more efficient than the G3. The dual camera combines a large 1/1.31” 50MP sensor in the main with a 48MP 123° ultra wide. The 6.3” OLED display is not an LTPO panel, but it does run at 120Hz. As for the battery, it has 4,700mAh capacity and supports both wired (27W) and wireless charging (15W).
The Google Pixel 9 Pro is a €200 upgrade and it brings a sharper display (1280p+ vs. 1080p+ resolution), which is an LTPO panel. In addition to the wide and ultra wide, there is also a 48MP 113mm periscope that offers an impressive zoom for a phone of this size. And the selfie camera is better too with a 42MP sensor and an ultra wide 17mm lens (vs. 10.5MP 20mm on the vanilla Pixel). Wireless charging is a bit faster (21W), but the battery is otherwise the same.
The Google Pixel 9 Pro XL is a larger version of the 9 Pro. Both phones have the same cameras and both have 16GB of RAM (compared to 12GB on the vanilla).
