- 1Screen has rounded corners. When measured diagonally as a rectangle, screen is 6.3 inches (for Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro) and 6.8 inches (for Pixel 9 Pro XL). Actual viewable area is less. Dimension may vary by configuration and manufacturing process.
- 2Not available for all apps or content.
- 3HDR brightness measured at 100% on-pixel ratio. Peak brightness measured at 5% on-pixel ratio.
- 4Dimensions and weight vary by configuration and manufacturing process.
- 5Estimated battery life based on testing using a median Pixel user battery usage profile across a mix of talk, data, standby, and use of other features. Battery testing conducted on a major US carrier network. Battery testing conducted in California in mid 2024 on pre-production hardware and software using default settings. Tests began with phones fully charged. Battery life depends upon many factors and usage of certain features will decrease battery life. Actual battery life may be lower.
- 6Estimated battery life based on testing using a median Pixel user battery usage profile across a mix of talk, data, standby, and use of limited other features that are default in Extreme Battery Saver mode (which disables various features including 5G connectivity). Battery testing conducted on a major US carrier network. Battery testing conducted in California in mid 2024 on pre-production hardware and software using default settings, except that Extreme Battery Saver mode was enabled. Tests began with phone fully charged. Battery life depends upon many factors and usage of certain features will decrease battery life. Actual battery life may be lower.
- 7Estimate of typical capacity based upon testing and expected cell behavior.
- 8Fast wired charging rates are based upon use of the Google 45W USB-C® Charger plugged into a wall outlet. Actual results may be slower. Adapters sold separately. Charging speed based upon testing with device batteries drained to 1% and charged with Google 45W USB-C® Charger. Charging testing conducted by Google in early 2025 on pre-production hardware and software using default settings with the device powered on. Charging speed depends upon many factors including usage during charging, battery age, and ambient temperature. Actual charging speed may be slower.
- 9Wireless charging rates up to 15W (Pixel 9), up to 21W (Pixel 9 Pro) and up to 23W (Pixel 9 Pro XL) charging with Google Pixel Stand (2nd gen) (sold separately). Up to 12W with Qi-certified EPP chargers (sold separately). Actual results may be slower.
- 10Storage specifications refer to capacity before formatting. Actual formatted capacity will be less.
- 11Storage specifications refer to capacity before formatting. Actual formatted capacity will be less.
