Google Pixel 9 Pro XL 128GB Porcelain

Mit XL-Preis. Google dreht beim Pixel 9 Pro XL an den üblichen Stellschrauben und bringt es auf dem neuesten Stand der Technik. Dazu gibt es satte sieben Jahre Updates und ein tolles Kamera-Setup. Die Preise steigen abermals kräftig, ob dies gerechtfertigt ist, zeigt unser Test.

For the first time ever, Google is offering a Pixel Pro model in two sizes without compromise. That includes an incredible rear triple-camera system with 5x optical zoom telephoto camera, a bag of impressive new AI camera tricks, handy new Pixel-exclusive apps that rely on the power of Gemini, and a bold new design that some will love to hate. Unfortunately, a slower-than-ever Tensor processor and $100 price increase make this harder to recommend than I'd like, and a flaky new fingerprint sensor means finding the right screen protector is harder than it should be.

The Google Pixel 9 Pro XL is a beautifully balanced experience, offering heaps of power yet superb longevity per charge in a package that's been redesigned with great consideration. Sure, the camera bump on the back is now pretty massive – but the cameras within it remain exemplary. Minor downsides can't hold this Pixel back from being one of the best Android phones – one that's different in form and function to Samsung's also-compelling Galaxy S24 Ultra. That Google also promises 7 years of software and security support, plus feature drops that'll advance its AI feature set, only means the best will continue to get better.

The Pixel 9 Pro XL is one of the most exciting Pixels in a long time; it not only sports a desperately-needed design refresh, but a boost to the auxiliary camera lenses, all-day battery life and a huge focus on GenAI allows it to stand out from the competition.

The Pixel 9 Pro XL sets new records for having the brightest screen around and has the longest battery life in a Pixel, but the minor camera and processing performance leaves more to be desired — especially when it's $100 more.

The Pixel 9 Pro XL is an excellent flagship phone, but it doesn’t quite make enough meaningful progress to justify its elevated price tag, nor the same level of praise we heaped upon its predecessor. Meanwhile, its new design is sharp but disappointingly unoriginal.

The Pixel 9 Pro XL has incredible 18-hour runtime that frees you of battery life anxiety, but it appears to get toasty during certain taxing tasks.

The best big-screen Pixel yet is a real looker, levels up Google’s AI efforts and takes a fine photo. Just think hard on whether you need the Pixel 9 Pro XL, now there’s also a smaller version

The Google Pixel 9 Pro XL offers stunning hardware, lovely cameras, and much-improved specs — making it one of 2024's best flagship smartphones.

Google's Pixel 9 Pro XL pairs elegant hardware with powerful Android software and delightful but limited AI tools to give us a glimpse at the future of phones.
