Can Google keep a secret? Pixel 9 design leaks 10 months ahead of official release

Unlike other smartphone manufacturers, Google seems to struggle with keeping its product details under wraps. It's difficult to identify another company that fares worse in this regard. The number of leaks associated with Google is so overwhelming that the company often does not try to stop them. It even publishes official photos of its products months before their official release.

In this case, Google may set a new record. If the leaks are accurate, the design of the forthcoming model has been exposed nearly 10 months before the official premiere.

The Pixel 6, 7, and 8 models are characterized by a distinctive protruding band running along the rear edge. But, according to visuals published by @OnLeaks, the Pixel 9 Pro will have a centrally located triple camera set within an oval space.

Additional changes include flat-edge casing and extraordinarily thin, evenly distributed frames around the screen. The front view of the Pixel 9 Pro is reminiscent of designs seen with the iPhone 15 and, more particularly, the Samsung Galaxy S24.

Based on the same source, the Pixel 9 Pro will have a 6.5-inch diagonal screen, and its dimensions are estimated to be around 6.4 x 3 x 0.3 inches.

The Pixel 8 series was introduced in October 2023, suggesting that the next generation will be unveiled in the fall.
