Google made a bigger event that’s also two months early! Google held its Pixel 9 event this past week and it left us with some thoughts. So without further.
Google held its Pixel 9 event this past week and it left us with some thoughts. So without further ado — here they are.An August event instead of October makes all the difference
The Pixel 8 series was announced on October 4, 2023. The Pixel 7 series was announced on October 7, 2022. Google unveiled more devices this time around, and it managed it in the middle of August — impressive!
Changing the unveil from early Autumn to the blaze of Summer changes the entire dynamics of the launch and the Pixel 9 series is now a viable choice to take over your summer vacation photography — a huge opportunity for the photography-minded Pixel phones. Not to mention that Google’s phones are now selling one whole month earlier than Apple’s iPhones.We like the new flat aesthetic
It seems everyone is making their phones flatter these days. Apple did it a few years ago, Samsung started it with the Galaxy S23 series and finally made the S Ultra flat this year. And now Google has done it to the Pixel.
We like the new look of the Pixels. Plus, their corners are slightly rounded, making them comfortable to hold, and a little less rectangular.
Going flat also potentially means the phone is less likely to break if you drop it, but more importantly glass protectors are easier to apply. Plus, the flat side make it easier to make perfect use of the available volume.But please make all surfaces matte next year
The Pixel 9 Pros frame has a polished metal finish that attracts fingerprints like nothing else (except maybe piano black plastic trim on cars.
