There have been several leaks regarding Google's impending hardware launch event on August 13. Today, two more renderings showcasing the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro XL—the larger, genuine successor to the Pixel 8 Pro—have surfaced.

On August 13, Google is scheduled to unveil four new smartphones: the Pixel 9, the Pixel 9 Pro, the Pixel 9 Pro XL, and the Pixel 9 Pro Fold. As a result, Google's portfolio is likely to become increasingly clearer at the same time. Given that it is the same size as both the Pixel 8 and Pixel 9, the Pixel 9 Pro is not the successor to the Pixel 8 Pro—at least not in terms of size—but it does have the internal components of the Pixel 9 Pro XL. This new naming structure may take some getting used to, but if you are completely familiar with it, it makes sense. The Pixel 9 Pro Fold is the successor to the original Pixel Fold from last year.

The freshly revealed pricing is also puzzling at first glance, but basically, there will be price increases for several varieties while certain versions will remain priced the same as their predecessors.

The Pixel 9 will have one fewer camera than the Pixel 9 Pro and Pixel 9 Pro XL, as we previously knew, and the new smartphones feature an updated design for the camera island on the back. Other than that, the fresh renderings don't really reveal anything new.
