LOVE this phone!
I'm not one to write reviews, but I love this phone!! I traded my Galaxy S24 Ultra for the Pixel 9 Pro XL since there was a great trade-in program, so this is my perspective switching. The Pixel's hardware feels SO good when you're holding it, so much more than the sharp edges of the S24 Ultra. The S24 was so uncomfortable at times that I had to change the way I was holding it several times. It has the same build quality you'd get from an iPhone. The Pixel's performance seems equal to that of the S24 Ultra; I think we've hit a point in the chipset where we're now optimizing more for AI. Many AI features such as Add Me, Video Boost, Screenshots, and Call Notes are so useful - not gimmicks! I particularly love Call Notes since I can get anxious while on a call, so I tend to forget bits of the conversation. This is game-changing for me. Also, I take a LOT of screenshots, so having an app that uses AI makes sifting through what I'm looking for a breeze. Everyone would find the AI tool they prefer more, but those two make a big difference in how I use my phone. The Pixel's battery life is also impressive; I've used it for two days, and it's around 10%. Android is known to learn how you use the phone, so it optimizes even further. The camera is another reason I chose this phone. The photos are BEAUTIFUL! This is coming from a professional photographer's point of view, too. I never was a fan of the S24 photo processing, but we didn't for the S24 Ultra for the pen (note-taking). There's so much to love about this phone. Again, I'm not one to write reviews, but Google finally made a flagship worth considering. I've owned a lot of phones, and this truly impresses me.

Full-On, True Flagship Contender this Year.
Excellent device. The iPhone of Androids, and I state that as a compliment. Apple has been doing it well for more than a decade and continues to hold the majority of the US market share. I have been a Samsung Ultra series holder since the s21, and prior to that a variety of Android based devices - Samsung flagships, Pixel 6 and before (including Nexus devices), Oneplus flagships, Motorolas, etc. I think the 9 series line is the best they have done, not just cause it the lastest, it's actually hitting on all points, hardware, software, camera, and guess what, battery is usable for a full day with no issue... Keep in mind, daily power users or mobile gamers may not see this to be fit. Power users may need to juice up at some point during the day, and charging is pretty quick and comparable to the Samsung 24 series, gamers will need to stick to the Snapdragon based phones, raw power of the SoC will make more sense for about the same price - however, these users are the minority, the avg. user is very likely to like/love this device.
