Anticipation is growing for the imminent launch of the Google Pixel 9 series in India on August 14. The official specifications of the upcoming Pixel 9 Pro and Pixel 9 Pro Fold are still unknown, despite Google providing a sneak peek at them. Nonetheless, a number of leaks and rumors have surfaced, offering information about anticipated improvements and features of the upcoming Pixel smartphones. Four new Pixel 9 models are rumored to be part of the series: the highly anticipated Pixel 9 Pro Fold, Google’s second foldable smartphone and its first to hit the Indian market, as well as the Pixel 9 Pro, XL, and Pixel 9 Pro.
Google’s official teaser suggests that the Pixel 9 series will be heavily integrated with Google AI, specifically Gemini, though details are still few. The business has not revealed anything more than this and a sneak peek at the AI-powered features and rear design. As leaks and conjecture fill in the blanks, let’s explore the anticipated features and rumors surrounding the upcoming Google Pixel 9 series.
Google Pixel 9 Series: Leaked Price
The Google Pixel 9 Pro’s price was disclosed a few days before it was released. Although the Pixel 9 Pro’s base model costs $999, just like the Pixel 8 Pro, the Pixel 9 Pro XL is thought to be the real successor to the Pixel 8 Pro, which implies that it might cost more. The flagship models in Google’s lineup may see price increases as a result, with the most expensive model possibly being the top model.
This leak suggests that the Pro model from last year will cost $200 more. Should Google continue with this pricing strategy, the entry-level Pixel 9 may launch at $900, or approximately Rs 75,556). The leak indicates that there are two Pixel 9 Pro models available at that price. The price of the Pixel 9 Pro XL was also mentioned, with the 256GB and 512GB storage options costing $1,200 (about Rs 1,01,00).
As demonstrated by the Pixel 8 Pro’s launch price in India of Rs 1,06,999 for the 128GB variant, despite its US launch price of $999 (roughly Rs 84,000), the leaked US pricing does not always translate to Indian prices. This implies that the Pixel 9 series’ Indian price may vary from the US prices, and could potentially be higher.
