This could be the biggest Pixel 9 leak yet
Once again, it's time to talk about the Google Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro Fold! This time, there's a massive promo material leak courtesy of the 96.7% accurate (as he claims) tipster on X Steve H.McFly!
The report (in collaboration with 91mobiles) comes shortly after another leak which had to do with the impressive display specs of Google's Pixel 9, 9 Pro, 9 Pro XL, and 9 Pro Fold.
The Google Pixel 9 series introduces new color options including dark grey, light grey, off-white (rumored to be called Porcelain White), and pink. The sides of these phones are polished or glossy, while the back panel features a soft matte finish.
Take a look at the leaked images:

So, a new camera island design gives these phones a distinctive appearance, with a noticeable protrusion from the back panel. The Pro models are expected to feature three lenses, while the regular Pixel models will have two snappers.
*That Actua display panel is found also on the Pixel 8 series, and it's an improved OLED display technology that's brighter than that of the Pixel 7 series.
If this isn't enough for you, here are 14 more promotional slides:
The report also shines a light on the Google Pixel 9 series' AI whistles and bells, and some additional features. Google will most likely sell these handsets with seven years of security updates and Pixel Drops, which are software updates featuring new Pixel-exclusive capabilities.
