Pixel 9 Pro XL After 1 Week : Everything You Need To Know

Reviewing the Google Pixel 9 Pro XL After week 1!
ALL MY FAVORITE GEAR IS LISTED BELOW 👇

I’ve spent the last week with the Google Pixel 9 Pro XL, and it’s a device full of surprises. From its redesigned look to the new AI-driven features, this phone is packed with innovation. But, while it shines in many areas, there are still some quirks that hold it back. I’ll take you through my hands-on experience, covering everything from the sleek design to performance, and even some of the gimmicks that didn’t quite hit the mark. If you’re on the fence about this phone, this video might help you decide.

Im still happy with my Pixel 7 Pro. Smooth ui and great battery life. easily last me whole day. Camera top notch. I don't play games. normal emails, social stuff and a lot of youtube tiktok videos!

The pixel 9 pro xl is the best phone I have used in the past 4 years. I swap a lot. I have no idea why everyone nitpicks the pixel more than every other phone. It's getting odd at this point.

2:48 FYI the option to change the Power Button between the Power Menu and Google Assistant/Gemini has been around forever (even my Pixel 2 had the option!)... You can find it under Settings -> System -> Gestures -> Press & hold power button on Android 14 for the P9PXL.

Goos video. Traded in Iphone15 Pro Max for a Pixel 9 PRO XL 512gb Hazel Color and just love it! Screenshots app I use as a Reminder...take a screenshot something important, put a comment and reminder date! This is an awesome feature to follow up whatever. GEMINI has surprised me...asking for tips on a trip, recipes, workout..all while getting great all day battery life and a screen can see perfectly in direct sunlight...something Iphone 15 Pro Max failed. Google has done a great job with this

All these nit picky complaints and my question is what da fq do you all use these phones for? 99.99% only use social media, and a few apps, no one really use it to launch a rocket.

The camera bump represents the google search bar and always has

My favorite Pixel (xl pro). The features are ahead of the competition. Camera is the best I've seen on a phone. The new squared edges are great. Face unlock is really good. Battery life is really good. Overall this is such a solid phone. If you are imon the fence just get it. You won't be disappointed.

I recently upgraded from a Pixel 6a to a Pixel 9. I really appreciate its smaller size and find that the Pro version isn't necessary for my needs.

Picked up a regular Pixel 9, upgraded from the 6A. I just use it for texting, calls, YouTube, and banking. Don’t really need a pro camera or any social media besides WhatsApp

[starrekip]

I own a pixel. The camera is absolute top. So much better than an iPhone. Always spot on. Also great is the clean OS.

Great review! I got my Pro XL a few days ago so I was keen to see what other people's thoughts were on it. I've used exclusively pixels since the first one (Pixel, Pixel 3 XL, Pixel 5, Pixel 7 Pro and now Pixel 9 Pro XL) I know they don't stack up to the likes of Samsung spec wise, but I can't describe how much I hate the OS on Samsung's and I don't particularly like the design either. Once I experienced clean Android as Google intended, there was no going back for me, I toyed with the idea of getting a device from Nothing but the new design of the Pixel 9's and the new AI integration sold me.

[bryans]

Thanks for the review Kyle. I think the Pixels are good looking phones (I kinda liked the "visor").

[wheezyx_]

So something to mention for people who are wondering when he talks about in the video about reminders. It's false. You can create reminders. You can play music. You can really do anything they just pull everything from Google workspace which includes reminders, tasks, notes, documents. For the music aspect, I use YouTube music since it is a Google product and it works flawlessly.

[RavenReportLK]

These phones are insanely good man. I was watching an unboxing of S24 Ultra, that of several other phones too and nothing much sets them apart. Phones today can't fail you.

[LJSheffRBLX]

Kyle Erickson, great content keep it up dude

[monicavandeventer]

Just ordered my Google Pixel 9 Pro XL. I'll be getting it on my birthday this Friday. I had to get it in porcelain, because the light pink phone is sold out literally EVERYWHERE! 😢 That's okay though. My favorite color is dark green anyways.

[TanathosX]

Can you share the wallpaper or where to buy it from?

[TechWandererYT]

It is wild that an hour or so ago I commented “dope thumbnail” on Threads and now this video popped up on my YouTube feed lmao.

[kevdotcom]

So you just had broke back mountain loaded up huh

great review. Currently looking into getting one.
