Google Pixel 9 series: Design and Display Enhancements:

Leaked images suggest that the Pixel 9 series will depart from previous models with significant design changes. It is anticipated to feature a flat frame design and a new floating island-style camera module, marking a departure from the visor design of its predecessor. Additionally, new colour options, including a speculated "Peony" pink, aim to offer a refreshed aesthetic.

The display is expected to receive an upgrade with Samsung's M14 OLED panels, promising improved brightness and durability for enhanced visual experiences.

Camera and Performance Upgrades:

Google Pixel phones are renowned for their camera capabilities, and the Pixel 9 series is set to continue this trend. Reports suggest a larger primary camera sensor with a potential variable aperture lens. Pro models may feature a triple camera setup with improvements to the ultrawide and telephoto lenses. The return of the temperature sensor, first introduced with the Pixel 8 Pro, is also anticipated.

Under the hood, the Pixel 9 series might debut Google's latest Tensor G4 processor, based on Samsung's Exynos chips. This processor promises enhanced performance and efficiency. It will also introduce the Samsung Modem 5400 for faster and more power-efficient connectivity, including support for 5G non-terrestrial networks.
