Google has launched its 9th generation of Pixel smartphones. The Pixel 9 replaces the Pixel 8, and personally, it is the first Pixel model to impress me since the Pixel 3, right from the moment I unboxed it. The new Google Pixel 9 features a revamped design, an enhanced chipset, improved camera capabilities, updated software, and numerous generative AI functionalities. With a price tag of ₹79,999, it will be intriguing to observe how this phone competes in the compact flagship market.
