Google Pixel 9 Pro and 9 Pro XL review: AI all over the place


AI phones for the AI era.

But despite the difference in size, these two Pro 9 devices share the exact same camera hardware, including a 5x telephoto lens — something you don’t get on every “small” flagship phone. It cleans up footage taken at higher zoom magnifications and smooths out transitions between lenses, so it’s a nice all-purpose tool if you’re doing something a little more technically challenging than just shooting a quick clip of your cat doing something funny. It’s a repository for all of your screenshots that uses AI to parse out information from them and saves it as metadata so you can search for it later — Airbnb door codes, Wi-Fi passwords, that kind of thing.
