Google Pixel 9 Pro XL - Unlocked Android Smartphone with Gemini, Triple Rear Camera System, 24-Hour Battery, and 6.8" Super Actua Display - Hazel - 128 GB

I've had the Pixel 9 Pro XL for a week, and after countless hours of testing, I am quite happy with my purchase. To be clear, I am a regular person (not a professional reviewer) and I paid for the phone with my own money. No handouts or compensation here. I would venture to say that the majority of complaints about this 9th gen Pixel are from people who don't have one (Verified Purchase?). This is a great phone. Everything just works, and works well. It is responsive and fast; while Samsung and Apple flagships may win benchmarks, in real world use, this phone is able to handle everything I've thrown at it. And real world use is where this phone shines. I come from Samsung and did not like their bloated UI and baked-in Samsung apps. This is the purest possible Android experience and it shows. Everything just works, intuitively, and works well. It's been a few years since I used an iPhone as my daily driver, but anyone who is stuck on iPhone as the "just works" phone, check this phone out. If you prefer the Google ecosystem (Gmail, Docs, Drive, Calendar, etc), the Pixel is the way to go. They are all deeply integrated without the bloat or workarounds on other phones. I've heard of problems attaining the fastest charging levels without buying the expensive Google charger, but I charge on a wireless charger at night while I sleep. Even using a third-party (and cheap) wireless charger, it charges decently. It seems this phone requires the charger to bump voltage to get the 37 watt charging, so if you care about squeezing in your charges at the fastest charging speeds, perhaps get the official Google wired charger or be very thorough in your charger research. But I dont think you'll need it. For me, charging speeds don't matter with this big battery. It has lasted me all day, every day, and I have intensely used it from sunup to sundown. Never once have I risked needing to charge it between 5am and 10pm. As long as the phone lasts all day and only needs to be charged at night, I don't think it matters if it takes 90 minutes to charge. But that's a personal decision for you to make for yourself. The camera is amazing. It takes some of the best photos I've seen come from a phone. And while there are plenty of choices out there for post-processing your photos, having features like Video Boost or Zoom Enhance baked right into the Photos app makes it a simple joy to take photos and edit them. I challenge anyone to find a simpler and easier workflow for taking the best possible photos. If you want to take amazing photos and be able to edit and enhance them in a few seconds without switching between an array of apps, this phone is for you. Of course third-party editing apps are a Play Store away, but you probably won't them them. I know Google hypes the AI, but generally that's not why I got the phone, so I'll leave the in-depth AI reviews to others. Some of it is fun -- Magic Editor is a fun toy and Zoom Enhance stretches the boundaries of what's possible on a phone camera, but things like Gemini Live feel a little half baked. Don't get me wrong; Gemini Live is a leap forward for Google, but the AI as a whole feels disjointed. Gemini Live doesn't communicate directly with regular Gemini, and while it's great for chatting, it can't do even basic tasks (which requires switching to the other Gemini). It's also quite perplexing that there are still basic Google Assistant functions that Gemini can't call up. It feels like it should be a basic ask to relay all Assistant functions, but it's not that simple. These are minor annoyances that will hopefully improve in the future, but (to Google) if you're going to hype the AI so much, please have it more integrated and seemless than this. It feels like a miss that the feature you're hyping the most is the one with the most blemishes. But AI is quickly evolving. Maybe my comments will be moot in a week. And like I said, since I didn't get the phone for the AI, this isn't a ding for me. I'll update if any issues arise, but so far I'm very satisfied with my purchase. This is my first Pixel, and I can see why there are Pixel fans. This phone might not be everything to everyone, but it's not supposed to be. If you want a premium phone that feels great, looks great, and does what it does very well, give this newest Pixel a shot. If you're using an iPhone but not yet too deeply invested in their closed box, or if you're a Samsung owner who's tired of the bloat, I recommend checking out the Pixel 9 Pro XL. It's great to have so much choice in the smartphone world, and I believe this is a choice worthy of your attention.

Having been a Pixel user since the very first model, I can say the build quality has come a long way from the 1st pixel. They have consistetnly felt premium in hand. Personally I think it is a really good looking, high-end device feeling device, and the chrome accents give it a sleek, modern look that stands out. Display & Performance The screen is phenomenal, especially with its 3,000 nits peak brightness, making it incredibly easy to see even in direct sunlight. Just a tip: don’t forget to toggle on the 120Hz refresh rate in settings to get that silky-smooth experience! While some tech enthusiasts might nitpick the Tensor G4 chip, the 16GB of RAM ensures that daily tasks and multitasking are generally pretty snappy. For the average person, speed will definitely not be an issue. Software & Longevity The "pure Android" experience is still the big draw for me, just like in the Nexus days. One of the best perks is that updates are pushed out directly by Google with no carrier delays. Plus, knowing this phone is supported with Security, OS, and Feature drops until August 2031 gives me a lot of peace of mind for the long haul. Or at least till I upgrade to the 11 or 12(depending on what they release). Camera & AI The camera remains a powerhouse. It might face stiffer competition now, but it still produces fantastic results. The AI tools are a lot of fun to use, and Gemini is integrated naturally into the software. While the basic Gemini is great, I’ve found that the Pro version (part of the Google One AI Premium plan) offers the best experience. I received a one-year subscription with my purchase, which is a really good deal IMO if you can still find it offered. Full disclosure I was a subscriber before the deal so I did find value in upgrading Battery & Audio The battery life is solid. It will get you through a full day of medium to medium high usage even at 120Hz refresh rate, but it’s definitely not a "multiday" champion and will need a charge by bedtime. Call quality is excellent, call screening feature is great and the speakers are good for music and videos if you don't have earbuds or headphones connected. Final Verdict Paired with the Pixel Buds Pro 2, the ecosystem feels more cohesive than ever. If you're looking for a premium Android phone with long-term support and smart AI, I highly recommend the Pixel 9 Pro XL.

Teléfono perfecto que responde a la descripción. Entrega perfecta.

Excelente equipo llegó nuevo y sellado.

Todo funcionando excelente, sin duda los pixel son de los mejores teléfonos que hay.

Excelente teléfono, me agrada mucho pues tiene todas las cualidades que esperaría de un producto de su gama y precio. Lo acabo de comprar porque al Pixel 8 Pro que tenía se le lastimó la pantalla y a partir de eso se arruinó, ya no se veía bien; por eso decidí reponerlo con el 9 Pro Xl.

El articulo me fue entregado antes de tiempo, venía muy bien empaquetado y completamente sellado. El teléfono concuerda a la descripción y funciona perfectamente.
