    I've had the Pixel 9 since first released and impressed with the performance coming from iPhone 12. Web surfing and opening apps is quicker, longer battery life, ultrasonic thumbprint is a bonus, and 120 hz refresh rate for base model is something Apple is lacking.

    As a former Pixel 7 user I though it was time for an upgrade when I saw this phone on sale. It is a great phone, it runs smoothly and the AI features are very good. A great buy if you can find it on sale.
