A: I've talked to both bestbuy phone agents and in store support and both have said if they cannot input it into their system it's not possible to trade in a Samsung online exclusive color
A: Hi there, Pixel 9 Pro XL comes with VPN by Google One at no extra cost, so you have additional protection against online threats wherever you’re connected and no matter what app or browser you’re using. For more info, see here: g.co/pixel/vpn.
A: It’s a promo and the 1099 promo only qualifies towards the new device not the open box one. That’s why your trade in can also vary if it isn’t a new 9 pro xl and chose a 9 pro fold or a regular 9 pro.
Q: Will you guys be accepting the S24 ultra on trade for this
A: They do, but is good to know that S24 Ultra have a better chip and more storage (256gb for the base model).
A: Yes they will give you a best buy gift card
Q: Will this phone work on Cricket network?
A: Yes!
A: Only the pro series get 1 year free. But there's a free trial on any Pixel phone. I'd recommend it for my work and trip plans.
Q: If unlocked does this support india country based sim
A: Yes, I’m using an India-based Jio eSIM along with a T-Mobile physical SIM here. When connected to Wi-Fi, the Jio eSIM gets network access and I can receive SMS — I don’t have an active calling plan on Jio though. Works fine for basic connectivity.

An Amazing phone.
My previous Google Pixel phone was a Google Pixel 8 Pro. I am very happy my Google Pixel Pro 9 XL. Bigger screen good for my eyes. bigger battery lasts longer for me during the day. I love taking selfies with higher megapixel so I look sharper. My phone looks nicer with its new design. I love the AI and its numerous features. It was was worth upgrading.

Flagship Experience with Google's Signature Touch
I've been using the Google Pixel 9 Pro XL for a couple of months now, and I must say, it's one of the best Pixel phones Google has put out yet. Here's my detailed experience: Pros: Design and Build Quality: The Pixel 9 Pro XL feels premium in the hand with its polished metal frame and frosted glass back. It's a significant step up from previous models, offering a design that rivals the likes of Apple and Samsung. The flat edges and display give it a modern look, and it's comfortable to hold despite its size. Display: The 6.8-inch OLED screen is stunning. It gets incredibly bright, making it visible even under direct sunlight, and the colors are vibrant yet accurate. The 120Hz refresh rate makes everything from scrolling to gaming incredibly smooth. Camera: Google's camera software is phenomenal, and the hardware on the Pixel 9 Pro XL doesn't disappoint. The photos are sharp, with excellent dynamic range and color balance. The 5x optical zoom is particularly impressive, providing clear images even at a distance. Night mode photography continues to be one of the best in the business. Software and AI: Running on pure Android with Google's latest AI features, the phone feels intuitive and responsive. Features like Magic Eraser, Call Screen, and the enhanced Google Assistant (Gemini) are genuinely useful in daily life. The promise of seven years of updates is a massive plus for longevity. Performance: While not the fastest on synthetic benchmarks, in real-world use, the Tensor G4 chip handles everything from multitasking to gaming without any hiccups. The phone feels snappy and fluid. Cons: Battery Life: Although better than its predecessors, the battery life still doesn't quite match up to some competitors. On heavy use days, I find myself needing to charge by evening, which is a bit disappointing for a flagship device. Charging: The charging speed isn't the quickest out there. It takes about 80 minutes to fully charge, which is slower than some of the competition offering 30-minute full charges. Fingerprint Magnet: The glossy sides attract fingerprints like a magnet, which detracts from the otherwise premium look. Overall: The Google Pixel 9 Pro XL stands out for its camera prowess, clean software, and the thoughtful integration of AI in daily use. If you're deep in the Google ecosystem or value camera performance and software updates, this phone is a top pick. However, if you're looking for the absolute best in battery life or the fastest charging speeds, you might want to consider other options. Rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars - It loses half a star for the battery and charging speed. Would I recommend it? Absolutely, especially if you prioritize camera quality, software experience, and long-term support.
