The Pixel 9 Pro XL offers the largest screen in the Pixel 9 lineup, along with the best hardware Google has released to date. Currently, the unlocked 128GB Google Pixel 9 Pro XL is on sale for $849, down from its original price of $1,099. This is the lowest price ever recorded on Amazon, according to price-tracking tools. Prime Members can receive it before Christmas in obsidian, porcelain, or hazel. The Pixel 9 Pro XL features 16GB of RAM, 128GB of storage, a 120Hz refresh rate, and runs on the Android 14 operating system. As Michelle Ehrhardt noted in her review, the Pixel 9 Pro has the best hardware Google has made, though its AI features still face some challenges. The XL model is larger than the standard Pro, but smaller than previous XL versions, measuring 6.4 by 3.0 by 0.3 inches.
If you already have the Pixel 8 Pro, the upgrade to this version may not feel dramatic. However, if you’re upgrading from an older model or switching from a non-Pixel phone, the Pixel 9 Pro XL offers plenty to love. One standout feature of Pixel phones is their long-term support. My Pixel 6A still receives regular updates and AI enhancements, making it feel like a fresh device even years later. With the Pixel 9 Pro XL, you’ll enjoy continued software updates for up to seven years.
