Google Pixel 9 Series: Color Options and Prices Leaked Ahead of European Launch
The buzz around Google’s latest Pixel 9 series is reaching a fever pitch as we inch closer to the anticipated launch at the Made by Google event on August 13. This time, tech enthusiasts have more to look forward to with three new Pixel phones, including the standard Google Pixel 9, a new Pixel 9 Pro XL, and even a foldable Pixel 9 Pro Fold. A recent leak from Dealabs, a French publication, has now revealed the expected European prices and color options for these exciting new models.
Pixel 9: Affordable Flagship with Style
The basic Google Pixel 9 is set to launch in two storage variants: 128GB and 256GB. The 128GB version is expected to be priced at €899, and the 256GB variant will likely carry a price tag of €999. For those keen on color choices, the Pixel 9 will be available in:
- Obsidian (Volcanic Black)
- Porcelain (White)
- Cosmo (likely a shade of pink)
- Mojito (a greenish hue)
Pixel 9 Pro: Premium Features and More Choices
For users looking for more advanced features, the Google Pixel 9 Pro will be an appealing option. The 128GB model will reportedly start at €1,099, while the 256GB variant will cost €1,199. There will also be a 512GB model priced at €1,329. This Pro version offers four different colors:
- Obsidian
- Porcelain
- Hazel (Sage Green)
- Pink
However, it’s important to note that the 512GB version will only be available in Obsidian and Hazel, limiting color choices for those needing larger storage.
Pixel 9 Pro XL: Bigger and Better
The Pixel 9 Pro XL is for those who want a larger device. The base model with 128GB will cost €1,199, while the 256GB variant is priced at €1,299. The 512GB option will be available for €1,429. For the truly storage-hungry, a 1TB version will also be sold at €1,689. Color options for the Pixel 9 Pro XL are:
- Obsidian
- Porcelain
- Hazel
- Pink (only available for the 256GB variant)
Pixel 9 Pro Fold: The Future of Foldables
The upcoming Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold is generating quite a bit of excitement. With 256GB storage, it’s expected to be priced at €1,899, while the 512GB model will cost €2,029. However, this foldable will only be available in two colors:
- Obsidian
- Porcelain
The commercial names for both the Pixel 9 Pro XL and the Pixel 9 Pro Fold are yet to be confirmed, so there could still be changes.
Price Hikes: What to Expect
While these leaks provide valuable insights, there’s one thing potential buyers should be prepared for: higher prices. Compared to the Pixel 8 series, the new Pixel 9 models carry a heftier price tag. For instance, the Pixel 9 is 40 Euros more expensive than its predecessor. The Pixel 9 Pro’s higher storage options also see an increase of around 30-40 Euros. The new XL version, considered the true successor to the Pixel 8 Pro, is at least 100 Euros more expensive.
These price hikes are likely to affect other markets similarly. Though prices in other currencies might not correlate directly, the trend of increased costs appears to be global.
Final Thoughts
As the August 13 launch date approaches, all eyes will be on Google to see if these leaks hold true. For now, the European pricing and color options offer a tantalizing glimpse into what the Pixel 9 series will bring. Whether you’re a long-time Pixel fan or a potential new user, these new devices are shaping up to be some of the most talked-about tech releases of the year.
