It appears that Google is aiming to further expand the Pixel family.
At least, that’s if a post from XDA Forums (as spotted by 9to5Google) is to be believed. The post contains leaked photos of what is purported to be a Google Pixel 9 Pro XL, which would be a new addition to the Pixel portfolio. Google plans to show off its latest line of Pixels at an event on Aug. 13.
Google reveals Pixel 9 Pro and Pixel 9 Pro Fold in new videos
In the past year or so, Google has released four Pixel phones: The Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro, the Pixel Fold, and the Pixel 8a. We already know for a fact that Google will show off the Pixel 9 Pro and a new Pro version of the Pixel Fold on Aug. 13. That would normally leave just the regular Pixel 9 (a theoretical Pixel 9a wouldn’t launch until next year), but if this leak is true, there will also be a Pixel 9 Pro XL for Google to show off.
Mashable Light Speed
There isn’t a lot else to glean from this leak, unfortunately. The model posted in the leak apparently has 16GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, as well as a new internal modem courtesy of Samsung, per 9to5Google. It’s difficult to tell from the photos without a direct comparison how much bigger it is than the Pixel 9 Pro — or if there are any noteworthy tech spec differences on the inside.
But still, if you’ve been wanting a bigger Pro Pixel, this might be your year.
