According to @OnLeaks and MySmartPrice, the Pixel 9 Pro features flat edges that gently curve towards the display and the back of the phone. This clearly sets it apart from the curved edges of the Pixel 6-8 Pro models.
The power button and volume controls remain on the right side, while it seems that Google has moved the SIM card tray to the bottom edge, to the right of the USB-C port. There is a cutout on the left side, while the left edge has nothing. There is a mmWave antenna cutout at the top.
Meanwhile, the camera module is clearly inspired by the Pixel Fold model. It is a raised strip that is not connected to the left or right edge, as in previous models. The three cameras are placed next to each other and covered with an oval piece of glass. The end result is a design with very slim bezels on the left side.
Next to the camera system, there are two circular cutouts, with a distinct circle between the main, wide-angle, and ultra-wide-angle lenses. One is for the flash and the other appears to be a temperature sensor that Google has retained from last year’s Pro model.
According to the OnLeaks x MySmartPrice article, the Pixel 9 Pro will have a 6.5-inch diagonal screen, which would be noticeably smaller than the 6.7-inch display on the 8 Pro model. However, the dimensions are relatively unchanged from last year, so it may be an error regarding the screen size.
Pixel 9 Pro: 162.7 x 76.6 x 8.5 mm (12.0 mm camera bump)
Pixel 8 Pro: 162.6 x 76.5 x 8.8 mm
The phone’s body is 0.3 mm thinner. Based on the renders, it seems that the screen is just as flat as the 8 Pro model, which has a slight curve at the edges, if not even flatter.
Compared to the renders of the 8 Pro model, this Pixel 9 Pro leak comes two months earlier.
The design will certainly be compared to the iPhone, but it also reminds me a bit of the Essential Phone.
