Customer Ratings & Reviews

Stunning display with high refresh rate, Strong performance and smooth UI, Versatile camera system, Long battery life with fast charging, Premium design and build.

The Pixel 9 Pro is the smartest phone I’ve used. The camera is incredible features like Best Take and Magic Editor actually fix group photos like magic! It’s fast, smooth, and the battery easily lasts a full day. I also love that Google promises 7 years of updates it feels built to last. Highly recommend it if you want a phone that’s smart, fast, and fun to use!

The Google Pixel 9 Pro offers a stunning display, excellent camera performance, and smooth, fast operation thanks to its Tensor G4 chip. With a sleek design, long battery life, and clean Android experience, it's a top choice for any smartphone user.

I have used both Android and iPhone devices for the last 17 years. First started off with iPhone and then went with Google Nexus phones, followed by Pixel, and then returned to iPhone for the last 6 years. I switched because I missed a lot of little things with the Pixel phones. Display: the screen is what one would expect out of a $1000+ phone. Not really anything to write about other than it is good. Audio: The speakers are decent and are comparable to my previous iPhone 14 Pro. I am able to listen to an audiobook in my car (I don't have BT car speakers) at or near 100% volume and understand it. I always use Shokz headsets when making calls, so I can't comment on the audio from the phone call perspective. Fingerprint reader: I have installed a SuperShieldz anti-glare screen protector. I read the reviews on those and some people had issues with it working. What I did was setup the phone and my two thumbs before installing the screen protector. Then I added my thumbs again as a new scan after installing (you can have 4 fingerprints maximum). That helps it work. Sometimes it has difficulty but that could be the oils from fingers that are on the screen protector. Wiping the screen helps fix that. Face scan: the front facing camera on the Pixel 9 Pro is able to be used as a face unlock. Instead of using an infrared camera like the iPhone, the Pixel uses its selfie camera. Because of this, it obviously can't work in the dark since the camera can't see your face. But during the day, I don't notice any difference when compared to my old iPhone face unlock in terms of speed and acceptance. Body: it looks very much like an iPhone with the latest phone and it feels good to hold. I wish the sides were rounded instead of flat so it would feel even better, but I guess everyone has to copy Apple in some way or another. Software: this was one of the primary reasons I switched from an iPhone. I absolutely hate notifications on iOS. They are terrible. I could write "they are terrible" a thousand times and it would not be enough. They don't disappoint on Android. I love that Pixel lets me have DND be triggered by calendar events. I love that I have more control and ownership over the $1000 phone I paid for and not be limited. Some downsides that I have discovered though are attaching photos. With iPhone, you can attach any photo (recent or 10 years old) from your Library to any app. With Android/Pixel, you can only see photos that have been taken on that device and not your entire picture library dating back X years. iPhones handle screenshots better than Android in letting you perform a "Copy and Delete" action that lets you paste the screenshot in whatever app you wanted. Pixel requires you to Share the screenshot from the image itself. This is also how you send photos from your Photo Library that are not saved on the device. Battery life: while all reviews say that the Pixel 9 series is better on battery than past Pixel devices, it still doesn't quite catch up to my old iPhone but it is very close.

The Pixel 9 Pro is a fantastic phone with a lot to offer. The performance is fast, apps open quickly, and it handles gaming and multitasking like a champ. The camera is easily one of the best out there, capturing great photos in any light. The screen is bright and clear, making videos and games look amazing. Battery life is good, though if you're a heavy user, you might need to charge it before the day is over. It’s pricey, but if you want high-end features, it’s a great option.

The camera quality is outstanding, producing sharp, vibrant photos in various lighting conditions, especially with the new AI enhancements. Battery life is solid, easily lasting a full day with moderate to heavy use. The performance is smooth and responsive, thanks to the upgraded chipset, making multitasking and gaming a breeze. One of the standout features is the integration with Google’s ecosystem, making it seamless for productivity and media consumption.

The Google Pixel 9 Pro is a compelling choice for those seeking a premium flagship experience in a slightly smaller, more ergonomic package. It excels where the Pixel line always has: computational photography and innovative AI features, offering a top-tier camera and a brilliant display. While its gaming performance may not match every high-end rival, its all-around excellence, thermal improvements, and fantastic battery life make it one of the best Android phones available.

I struggled with this review. I’m a real fan of the Pixel phones as well as a fan of Google as a platform. And my last phone – the Pixel Pro 8 – was the best phone I ever owned so far. But I’m always honest in my reviews and I have to say that while the Pixel 9 Pro is a very good phone, it’s not for me. What should have felt like an upgrade seems more like a downgrade from my Pro 8. The Pro 9 solves a lot of issues that users have had in the past; its new design provides better thermal shedding and prevents overheating. The new fingerprint sensor is super-fast and the screen is ultra bright, even in direct sunlight. And of course, there’s the new 50-megapixel front facing camera as well as the ability to use Satellite SOS services. Not to mention all of the new AI software features, some of which are truly astounding. Gemini Live is genuinely impressive and some of the camera features like being able to reimagine portions of a picture was not only a lot of fun, but also produced remarkable results. The problem for me is that I never had any issues with my Pro 8. I didn’t experience overheating. The fingerprint sensor worked for me more than 98% of the time. I don’t ‘selfie’ nor do I use video calling that frequently so the front facing cam was never something I gave much thought. Satellite SOS is a comforting thing to have in an emergency, but I never really go anywhere that it would come into play. And software is something that can easily be updated and upgraded through Pixel’s feature drops. Comparing the specs, there’s really nothing the Pro 9 does that the Pro 8 isn’t capable of already or couldn’t do with a software/system upgrade. I tried Gemini features like Gemini Live on both phones and I really couldn't see any measurable difference in performance. The nine core Tensor G3 performed just as well as the new eight core G4 in my tests. And a lot of the features exclusive to the Pro 9 like the new Pixel Screenshots app (which is an awesome idea) will almost certainly be available to the Pro 8 in a future feature drop. So, I’m left with two ‘improvements’ – the smaller overall size and the new styling. I’m sure that there were a sizable group of people out there that wanted the power and cameras of the pro phone in a more pocketable package, but I’m definitely not one of them. Yes, the Pro 9 does fit nicer in the pocket, and I DID carry it with me more often, but that honestly didn’t result in me using it any more than my other phone. That’s why I have a smart watch with LTE; so I don’t have to whip out my phone for basic tasks. And I really missed the larger screen! Of course, I’d have to buy a new case – that’s expected with most new phones. But it also would have required a new mount for my car; the current mount pressed on the volume buttons no matter how I adjusted it. As far as the styling goes… well, if I wanted an iPhone, I would have bought one. One of the things liked best about the Pixels was that it DIDN’T look like an iPhone. I’ll admit that it’s very subjective, but I never cared for Apple’s phone design and now it’s almost hard to distinguish between the two without turning it over. While I could get the Pro XL and have my larger screen back, it’s not going to help with the styling issue. Would I recommend it? If you have no issue with the style and you’ve been looking for something that fits in your pocket better, then the Pixel Pro 9 has a lot to offer. But if you thought that your Pixel Pro 8 was your best phone ever like I did, I’d suggest thinking about it more and seeing the phones in person. Personally, I’m in the process of reactivating my Pro 8 and keeping the Pro 9 as a backup.

The Pixel 9 Pro feels like Google finally hit its stride. It’s the rare phone that balances brains, beauty, and everyday practicality without trying to shout about it. The 6.3-inch OLED display is bright, sharp, and buttery-smooth, wrapped in a body that feels premium but not oversized. The camera system is the star. Between the 50 MP main, 48 MP ultra-wide, and 5× telephoto, the 9 Pro captures color, texture, and tone with almost eerie accuracy.

The Pixel 9 Pro is the best Pixel yet—stunning 6.3” display, powerful Tensor G4 performance, and an incredible triple-camera system with AI magic. Smooth, fast, and with great battery life, it’s everything a Pixel fan could ask for!

Outstanding phone, with a superior camera (The best I've ever used, and I've honed a lot of phones) and excellent voice reception. A well-built unit, enhanced by 7 years of OS and security updates. The initial battery usage numbers are discouraging, but they improve dramatically has the phone 'learns' your usage habits. After using it for a week I'm able to get one and a half to 2 full days before needing a recharge. I'm sure the pixel pro 10 is a fine phone, but I'm hard-pressed to imagine anyone needing more than the pixel 9 pro. Just go get one.

Best android phone out there. Good camera and fast processor as well. Body design is beautiful.

Good AI capabilities or potential and amazing camera. Still adjusting to it coming from iOS Price is a bit on the high side for this model compared to available options. May be better off with the larger screen of the Pro XL version. Getting an iPhone 16 Pro as well and will see how they compare later.

I joined the Google Pixel family with a Pixel 3 coming from a Samsung Galaxy Note 8. I absolutely loved the Pixel 3. I then upgraded to the Pixel 5 and eventually to a Pixel 7a. I liked both the 5 and 7a but never quite as much as the 3. Now the Pixel 9 Pro is my absolute favorite. The battery is amazing for me and the cameras are great. The phone feels good and looks good just like the 3 did. I can say that I don't have anything bad to say about this phone!

I've been using the Google Pixel series for years (and Google Nexus devices before that). They have usually been really good phones, but there has always something that kept them from being great. Coming from the Pixel 7, I was super frustrated with the bad fingerprint reader, constant cell signal dropouts, and lackluster battery life. I'm really glad that I upgraded to the Pixel 9 Pro. It's a very familiar experience to other Google phones, and the polish on the Pixel 9 series is great. I haven't yet found a single thing to complain about. Google has finally given us a good (ultrasonic) fingerprint reader. Cell signal stability seems vastly improved. Battery life is much better so far. The cameras remain a huge selling point. Speaking of that, I'm really glad that I went with the Pro this time. Among other things, having the 5x zoom lens is a big plus. I'd definitely recommend the Google Pixel 9 series.

The Google Pixel 9 Pro is an excellent phone. It feels premium in hand, runs smoothly, and the camera is truly impressive, especially in low light. The clean Android experience and smart features make everyday use simple, fast, and enjoyable.

I really enjoy the pure Android experience from the haptics to the fluid software experience. Every brand has its strengths and weaknesses but with pixel it’s an experience you will enjoy. The more I use it the more I say that I love this phone. Great build quality and I love this form factor, google hit it on the head with this Pixel! I have the pixel 9 pro and it’s the perfect size and it’s very comfortable to use as a daily driver!

Just got my Pixel 9 Pro and I’m loving it! The display is vibrant, the camera captures amazing details, and it’s super fast with no lag. Plus, the battery easily lasts a full day. Definitely a great upgrade!

The Pixel 9 Pro is comfortable to hold. The screen is amazing. Cameras are top notch. The Tensor G4 is powerful enough for most people. And when it comes to AI, Pixel is leaps and bounds ahead of the competition. With 7 years of OS and Security updstes. You'll get the latest OS updates first. Oh yeah, it also has a sim c a rd slot!!

The build quality of the Pixel 9 Pro is great, as expected. Google has really leaned into the sleek and premium design this time around. OLED display is absolutely stunning with vibrant colors, deep blacks, and smooth scrolling thanks to the 120Hz refresh rate. Whether watching videos or playing games, the visuals are top-notch. The AI-enhanced photography delivers crisp and detailed photos, even in low light. Portrait mode and zoom are especially impressive, giving professional-like results. I traded in my iPhone with grate deal and i'm not disappointed at all. this is grate flagship with GEMINI AI
