Have been using this phone for a few weeks now. I love the software and battery life. Ive seen some reviews talking about the processor not having the highest benchmarks. I'm not a gamer, so I don't care about the benchmarks, but in real world performance the phone has had issues. When I'm trying to text, and have a group chat going on in the background the phone freezes up. My old Samsung S23 didn't have this issue, and it had less ram than this phone. Overall this is a good phone, but the performance is disappointing.

I am new to google pixels although I was always an iPhone person I decided to try this new phone and I would say within the first year everything worked fine after a year my rear camera started to just get loose and is hanging on by nothing I.'m pretty sure this is a defect that's the only down side. I do think Google could have done a little better job on the way that the camera is in the rear area it should not be just coming loose like that my camera still works fine a phone works fine but the rear camera could literally be pulled off.

The Pixel Pro devices are in my opinion only good for converting iPhone user to android. I traded in my S24 ultra for this phone and instantly regretted it after setting it up. It felt cheap and hollow. I will say it had great battery life and googles ai is top notch but you can get the AI on any device just about, now. For the price there are better android option with more or better features.

This phone hardware-wise is great! It feels amazing and super premium. It's downside for me is pixel os. I'm not a fan. Seems very limited in comparison to Oxygen and One UI. You cant screencast. Only to Chromecast.

Good: The Pixel Pro XL is smooth and boasts impressive specs, comparable to the Apple 16 Pro Max, though it may not quite match the Samsung Ultra. The camera features are excellent, capturing high-quality images. Bad: While the photos look great for social media, they can appear overly processed and unnatural. The swipes and gestures feel awkward, and the battery life is disappointing, with slow charging times. Ugly: The phone does not come with a charging plug. Despite using a 100W charger with the provided cable, it does not support fast charging. For the price, it doesn't deliver the premium feel expected from a flagship device. Overall: The Pixel Pro XL is a good phone with strong features, but it feels overpriced given its lack of a premium look and feel.

Camera gets loose and dust gets in. It's not part of the body of the phone.

I would say go get this phone because it's basically free at Best buy right now with there trade in offers let me explain... So I traded in my iPhone 14 pro max best buy gave me 520 trade value for it then Google gave additional 579 since I was buying a pixel so so far (1,099) then on top of that best buy also gives you a 200 dollar gift card for buying the new pixel so in total I got (1,299) the cost of the phone and a case was (1,211 ) so I got the phone and case for free as well as walk away with some I have receipts if anyone wants to see but to the review lol Pros: 1. Display Quality 2. Camera Performance 3. Software Experience (Stock Android) 4. AI 5. Battery Life Improved battery life with faster charging 6. Build Quality Premium build with water and dust resistance (IP68 rating). Cons 1. Price 2. Storage Options: Limited storage options without expandable memory, which might be a downside for some 3. Availability: I had to go to 4 different best buys on launch day to find one hopefully this will improve over time 4. Design: the colors this year just don't seem to pop as much as the pixel 8 or even the 7 5. Performance While it performs well, some might find it lacking compared to the S24 Ultra's performance 6. Battery life I know shocking it's on both my pros and cons but here's why "I've been using the Pixel 9 XL for a few days now, and honestly, it's good for the average user ( most people ) but I'm a heavy user and 80% of my work is from my phone so the battery life is pretty disappointing. Despite the improvements Google claimed, I still find myself scrambling for a charger by 5 pm Even with moderate use, the battery drains faster than I expected. It's frustrating having to constantly worry about my phone dying, especially when I'm out and about. I was hoping for a longer-lasting battery, but this just doesn't cut it for a flagship device." Especially at this higher price point Hopefully they will fix it with software update finger crossed
