Customers are impressed with the superb camera quality, smooth overall performance for daily tasks, and amazing battery life. They also appreciate the faster processor, new design, good software, and ease of use.

    Overall I really like the Pixel 9, it’s speedy and does everything I need it to. It’s just the right size for me. Like that it’s not bloated with lots of 3rd party apps. Charges quick and has good battery life. Feels like a premium device.

    I love this phone, but I wish I would have got the bigger one. My only real complaint is that the launcher isn't as customizable as I'd like.
