The Pixel 9 Did The Impossible!?

[@njeckpriestley5176]

I think the biggest selling point for pixels this year is the looks. It's a very beautiful Phone

[@ldisc66]

Maybe but I feel with ever growing annoying bloatware could also be a factor.

[@TechOdyssey]

It definitely is

[@TechOdyssey]

Huh?

[@andresrodriguez6252]

It's because it looks like an iPhone

[@blainegoodwin6365]

​@@andresrodriguez6252That's why I don't like it. iPhones are the most generic looking piece of technology available right now

[@joeychadass]

It was my first year trying the Pixel 9 Pro just because I am utterly bored and tired of iPhone. And let me say this has been the best phone I've ever used! Loving the Pixel, and will probably never return to Apple for the iPhone.

[@TechOdyssey]

Glad to hear it!

[@flatt585]

My thoughts and experience as well!

[@cobaltblue5523]

Which iphone did you have before and how would you compare them .

[@joeychadass]

@@cobaltblue5523 iPhone 15 Pro Max. And compared to the Pixel 9 Pro XL, the pixel has amazing photos, snappy screen and nice animations, great haptics, the software and ai is integrated so seamless it just flows tbh.

[@Lynn-zw7dr]

I left S24 ULTRA for 9 Pro XL. Great phone but camera not so good as my 8 Pro was. I soon got bored with the camera AI bits. I'm waiting to see what the S25 Ultra will be like in January. Pixels used to be so reasonable to buy, now £999, bet £100 more next year! Far better than any iPhone though... 👌🏻

[@TechOdyssey]

Glad you’re enjoying it

[@Okuti8779]

Yes I upgraded from a Pixel 7 to Pixel 9 pro xl.

[@crispyy8899]

Like you said, I'd be happy if it was only 9-10%. I have a pixel 9 pro XL and I really love it. This is also good news for the Samsung and apple Fanboys as it may force their favourite manufacturers to up their game. Great video man, I hope everyone reading this has a wonderful day/night.

[@katinasoutherland7693]

Thank you! I hope you have a wonderful day my friend.

[@Avner-sj2ky]

Google is great but the chip is different story so I'll wait for the 10xl with tsmc tensor g5 and hopefully Google will bring glacier silicon battery

[@birdbowah]

I have been noticing more pixels in the wild

[@anthonywilliams9415]

Me too!!

[@marklivos]

Why I love pixel, AI & the camera..... The camera for me does it for me

[@daeshaunmoore4265]

I work at an amusement park during the summer and I go to a university. Seeing a Pixel is like seeing someone with a Samsung phone. There everywhere. There are so many people getting Pixel phones. People I know like family. Many people on campus have a pixel phone.

[@TechOdyssey]

Sweet

[@daniellyons9302]

I moved to a P9P from an iPhone XS and am glad I moved. I'm still getting used to the Android system but wanted to switch because 1. the LE Audio works better with my hearing aids and 2. the camera (zoom, ability to save large files in RAW format) is better. And I'm finding more system improvements that I appreciate (like enabling "do not disturb" when I turn the phone over). The P9P is a keeper.

[@Saluteme10288]

I've actually noticed a lot of pixel phones in the wild lately

[@TechOdyssey]

I have seen more, too

[@DrewL-mf7fs]

Sporting my first pixel, a 9 pro XL. I love this phone.

[@jonhansen4745]

It wouldn't surprise me if the sales go waaaay up. This new Pixel 9 ProXL is an amazing phone. Just waiting now for the Nov. update.

[@TechOdyssey]

It really is a great phone

[@flatt585]

Literally the best phone I've ever had!!!

[@chakkablankz7282]

#pixelgang 9pro XL and happy to be back

[@JoseGarcia-si3id]

I live in the Bay Area and I've been noticing a lot more Pixel phones where I live

[@nk-nn2ig]

I've loved Google phones since the 4a, but they have had many problems from general performance issues and bugs and the bloody volume buttons still I loved my pixel phones and I think Google has great potential each iteration of their phones are getting better and better and the pixel 9 is a great example of that I genuinely believe pixel phones will be the next big thing

[@lilzuplada1564]

Pixel 10 will be the gamechanger for Google. They’ll eat away at Samsung’s marketshare and people switching away from Apple

[@TechOdyssey]

Maybe so

[@Aorusgamer92]

I want this to happen

[@gumbo3063]

Just picked up 9PXL after discount from Google of $150 and %700 for trade of 8P

[@TechOdyssey]

Sweet

[@02elley]

The looks and the feel in the hand plays a role I would say. I got the 9 Pro XL in Hazel, and i admit i put a case on em but lots of times that I want to remove the case coz it feel so much better without a case. The camera is always great and no questions about it, videos improved too.

[@macrochipped]

Here in California they're definitely more common especially in the under 40 demographic.

[@michaeln1712]

So I got my pixel 9 pro day before yesterday and I can tell you that this phone feels premium and very very similar to an iPhone next to neck. I love it!

[@abrahamroberts2040]

I never really paid much attention to Google hardware until the pixel 9 pro fold. It’s currently my favorite phone

[@kiranmudnaney]

I wasn't going to get this one.. But I got an amazing deal here in India at 800$ for the Google pixel 9 pro xl 128gb variant.. No exchange, sealed pack... So I decided to sell my iphone 15 pro for this... And it's an amazing phone... I would've preferred buying the 9 pro but that's apparently 300$ more expensive than this...! And they aren't selling international versions of those here still.. I got a Japan version and it works perfectly... Love it so far...😊

[@puneetiqbal]

May I ask from where did you buy it ?

[@kiranmudnaney]

@puneetiqbal a week back..

[@puneetiqbal]

[@RogueHetero]

I'm in the NJ/NY area and I can say I see a ton of pixels on the train or walking around town. Obviously iphone is still dominant but I say maybe around 1 in 10 phones are pixels. Much more noticeable than before for sure

[@katinasoutherland7693]

I read the same article, although I don't know how close they are to the truth. I do believe that Pixel is doing great things right now. In the market, I've seen pixels in the wild. More than I have Samsung ultras or plus versions lately.

[@skullcrusher_1]

Over the last few years I have seen a rise in the pixel phones I see. Mostly I see the 6/6a or the 7 variants but still, that's Pixel market share.

[@TechOdyssey]

I have definitely noticed that

[@Fernando-fr5cu]

I am waiting for the Pixel 10 with the TSMC chip but the Pixel 9 Pro if the price comes down for Black Friday I may get it. Love the size.

[@polyglotengineer39]

For me as apple user, I'm just tired of Apple selling me the same phone every year. Pixel finally looked and felt comparable. Im happy with my purchase for sure.

[@bad65dad]

I switched last year from my Z Fold 3 being with Samsung note phones over 10 years I love my Pixel Fold the software is very with the special call features. Very smooth software and quarterly feature drops.

[@juancervantes]

I have personally seen a lot of people with pixels more and more.

[@BigJeffroeX438]

Thanks for the video Great content. I just don't think anyone was ready for how good this Pixel 9 Pro XL is. I have quite a few flagships in my arsenal and this is the phone I grab first everyday. It's that good who knew I definitely didn't think it was going to be this good I mean I knew it would be a little better than my pixel 8 Pro but this 9 Pro XL is simply amazing can I get an amen?

[@TechOdyssey]

I'm glad you enjoyed the video and are loving the phone!

[@NicK-nm4mu]

I live in NYC and I see Pixel phones everywhere. Perhaps the Google store in Brooklyn affects sales as well?

[@casperswift]

I see pixels out and about more and more than I ever did a few years ago. It seems to me that they are catching on.

[@TechOdyssey]

You may be right

[@krskadave]

I've got the Pixel9Pro and it's great! I also just traded my 15PM for a 16Pro...The Pixel is more gooder IMO...however, I'm enjoying the smaller iPhone for it's size...not the AI...Hahaha! Forget the KZbinr, but he showed sales of Apple, Samsung and Google...the iPhones this year dipped pretty good. At the same time Google trended up almost inverse to Apples dip. Interesting to see it visually in a graph anyways. Samsung is pretty flat and steady though...the youtuber was "hypothesizing" maybe the dip in Apple relates to it's customers trying the Pixel, thus the trend...interesting non-the-less.

[@Aorusgamer92]

I own a iPhone 14 Pro Max I'm already planning to switch to Google pixel again I had the experience with the pixel 2 & 3 in the passed

In my area I see mostly iPhones and then second Samsung Galaxy phones. I see just a few Pixel phones. I live in Dallas area. I LOVE Pixels. I think it’s the operating system is so fun! I like it much better than iPhone and Samsung.

[@TechOdyssey]

It will be interesting to see how it plays out this next year

[@wbunnage]

Pixels were practical phones but they are now both pretty and a bit more reliable heat and signal wise from all accounts. However I think that the iPhone 16 did a really good job at giving Apple users an opportunity to try something else, which is probably more impactful. I’m in the UK and pixels are everywhere - in my group of male friends it’s 80% pixels and 20% iPhone Xs for people who couldn’t care less about their phone/tech.

[@moskbarto9436]

My guess is: the haptics! I just love holding my Pixel 9 Pro in my hands. 😍

[@Alex77au]

Finally they "slightly improved" the dreadful connectivity and heating issues. In Australia many Telcos are offering huge discounts if peopld buy Pixel 9's on a repayment plan.

[@bigmeany1184]

I’m currently thinking of buying a Google pixel phone to replace my iPhone 13. Which one would you recommend? I tend to keep my phones for like 3 to 4 years.

[@jorge_the_first]

I think people were just waiting for a complete Android to move it. I had pixels and galaxy and the camera is not even in the same category. Pixel is way better for pictures, galaxy way better for videos. The moment they join everything in the same Android, no meter who comes first, it will scare the hell out of Apple. I personally don’t think people care too much about ai

[@Oddingen]

After all, Pixel is an aesthetically beautiful phone. What does it is the way the cameras are located. If you are not stuck in the Apple environment, you get everything that Apple promises to come on the iPhone, such as AI.

[@TheElementSwing]

I still cant recommend it to my dad. he says he'll never buy another iphone, but he doesn't know how bad phones can be with a software update bricking a pixel 6/7 or the speaker quality not being as good as apple...since ever. How hard is it to create good speakers like the iphone, even the s24 ultra isn't as good, and that's 100$ more. Even an iphone 13 pro max sounds better, thats sad. new samsung soon, same old oled, same old camera, its barely an update just so you buy the new one in 4 years where it'll be marginally better.

[@tonymarenno9568]

What's concerning me in Pixels is the flicker rate of their screen. Might be an issue with those who have sensitive eyes

[@TheElementSwing]

@@tonymarenno9568 its the same as every other us phone btw.

[@eciv2006]

I have yet to see a single soul in public with a pixel. I work extra at Verizon, Xfinity, The Apple store, the Hospital & Bombshells etc etc (Sheriff's Deputy). You may see a Samsung here and there but its an older one or cheaper Samsung, never the S24 Ultra. Everyone in Houston has iPhones. They don't care if it has one camera or three, they want that blue bubble. I own the S24 Ultra (orange), iPhone 16 Pro Max (black), S24 Plus (black) and a Z Fold 4 (black).

[@RIOLOGY]

Buying a pixel is playing the lottery, I bought the Pixel 8 at launch, and I got a "bad apple". Overheating issues, frequent signal loss, 5G unusable , battery not lasting half a day even on 4G... Many users reporting the same issues, no software update has been able to fix this issue. Until Google switches processor chip manufacturer, I wouldnt recommend this 50/50 trap to anyone. Hope they go bankrupt after seeing them selling the Pixel 8 on their website with no other option but agreeing on a waiver for consumer rights, effective not allowing you to return the phone if it comes with issues from the factory. Guess why they did this on this specific model? 🤔🤔 Checl out Louis Rossmans take on this, very insightful

[@Vss077]

there are more issues, its just not reliable. some having freezing & random phone restarts or overall lagging, not fixed yet. & those users that face these issues grow, couple month ago there was like 1 active thread about it & somehow i could find 4 threads made within 1 month now (globally). (also ppl faced those issues on release) no solution to the problem in sight, google says: delete "3rd party apps", factory reset everytime it appears or repair center. their overall "quality" is so weird. some face those issues & others have 0 problems but facing other or same issues later on. i also faced issues with battery, it was kinda bad on day 1 but after 1 month it was good, then couple month later is was back real bad which then got "fixed" again. overheating issue was only recently for me, which got kinda fixed by itself. in short: never again, i tried it, was decent but for the price i paid i expected more reliability & not "oh software update, we fixed this & that but also patched in more major flaws."

[@RIOLOGY]

@Vss077 google is a joke of a phonemaker promising to fix hardware issues with software, users waiting for a complete year, nothing fixed and in fact it is impossible to fix with software. The chip is simply bad, for some worse than others... Google sells a phone for a flagship price, yet I had a better experience with 2 years older mid tier phones. Get a phone with Snapdragon or Mediatech processor, avoid tensor & exynos chips (basically everything produced by samsung chip manufacturing). And avoid Google for not taking responsibility for their mistakes

[@abrahamroberts2040]

The case options for pixel 8 is so poor. I use the Google brand case and it's so sticky, it pulls my pocket out, but it's the better looking. The next one is the Mous, but it's always "out of stock". Google needs to up their case game.

iPhone sales have dropped across the globe . Apple has lost market share on every continent over the past 2 yrs . In China they are down 10/12 % , if the new SE does not sell extremely well then i think we will see a new CEO . "Apple intelligence " was bought from Google , the AI that will come tomorrow / someday /maybe was purchased from one of their biggest rivals .

[@diotitus]

True. The problem is that even though iOS as an operating system has gained a lot of the customization abilities and features as Android has had for years, Android phones just simply have better value and more functionality than an iPhone ever will have. Thus, that is why I definitely prefer Android over iOS any day of the week. However, I am a fan of Apple’s. Macs and iPads. Both of those categories of devices are awesome.
