Customers are saying

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. However, some customers find the screen size too small and the device too heavy, with a few noting it can get warm after heavy gaming.

    The Pixel 9 is awesome. The trade in process at Best Buy is sham. Do not trade your phone in at Best Buy. They will cancel your trade, keep your phone and lie, lie, lie about it all. It will take many hours of store visits to fix it. You can't call the store as they don't use phones. You've been warned.
