The temperature sensor is really handy with small kids. Being able to take their temperature on the fly and having timestamped logs of past reads has been so useful when speaking with doctors over the phone.
@@MikeOBrienMediayeah I noticed too from watching some content creators, they dispose temperature camera so fast. While me as a parent think that’s actually brilliant.
I've never reached 128gb of storage. I always end up upgrading phones within the same year. 😂 But you should check out one the plus 12. I have this phone for about 6momths. The longest I've had a phone in 3-4 years
6:12 The audio is so good in this recording, with that little bit of reverb. At least when heard from my headphones. Always enjoy the testing and contrast in your videos.
There's tons of uses to the temperature function, it's probably one of the features people actually need. Whether you're cooking, checking the temperature of your child or your pet, making soap or candles.... It's also perfect for people who have plants in their houses and want them to thrive.
Normally I watch hardware previews and reviews on hardware on Dave2D or MKBHD videos, but this time you were my first and until now only review on the new pixels. In-depth but not too much, great work as always!
My wife loves to screenshot funny memes and pictures but always forget the site she took them at. This could be useful for her since it allows you to go back to where you took the screenshot
This was a great review!! Can you do a more Extensive camera and especially video review and comparison between Iphone and Samsung? I would like to see video boost include it as well!
The reason for me to go for the Pixel 9 Pro XL over the Pixel 9 Pro is charge speed. The Pro XL charges considerably faster than the smaller phone. The 70% in 30 minutes you mentioned in the video only applies to the bigger phone. Coming from a OnePlus 9 Pro, the slower charge speed is very noticeable as is.
I'm curious about a comparison for the Pixel9 to the S24 and the Pixel 9 Pro to the S24 Ultra. I have been using Pixel for a few years now and am very happy with it. But this year it kinda feels like besides some gimmicks with AI and the camera that I won't use, the S24 just seems like a better deal. But in the end of the video you said, that while using the S24 Ultra before, you are considering switching to the Pixel 9 Pro now. So I'm really curious about your run down of the differences and preferences.
In my experience the pixel is better when it comes to camera and over all the software is much better. Galaxy animations aren’t nearly as smooth and there’s a ton of bloat downloaded on the phone I think the total of gibs it takes right off the bat is almost double what the pixel is. I also think simple things like the widgets are better looking and pixels haptics are better as well. The feed back when you’re typing or changing the brightness. Things like that. Samsung has better hardware tho and more customization. I also think this year atleast the pixel 9 looks better and also you can get the pro phone in a smaller size which isn’t an option on Samsung
Can confirm S24 is a good phone. But pixels are more satisfying to use. Especially haptics. You will miss song identifying. If you are an everyday user choose pixel. If you are a power user and use this for work then choose Samsung
can reviewer stop taking videos of green lands and sky for test. Come on normal users usually care more on group photos and human skin tone are the hardest to make it right. compare more on portrait , selfies, group photos rather than saying "the tree has great dynamic range".
Yeah I totally agree I don't take pictures of trees a lot mostly of friends and family and we're together and we're doing something You're totally right
Hey mike! great review. Just a small suggestion. Next time whenever u review an android flagship please try to include a social media test. most people choose iphones over android because of the inconsistency when it comes to using an android device for posting content on social media. especially instagram stories and snapchat. i only know that google and samsung has the instagram api that is optimized for its own devices to perform better than other android devices. Uhmm so in case u review another device in the future please look into social media performances too. Cheers !
Google should have made the Tensor chip more powerful due to 7 years of software updates and gave the Pixel 9 Series larger and faster storage capacities at these prices.
Great video. I think the 9fold has inferior camera array to the 9pro/9pro XL, so likely the photos and videos would be better on the pro/pro xl. Additionally, the 9 fold doesnt have a vapour chamber too.
Hey Mike thanks for the review I would really like to see a comparison against the Pixel 8 pro as if the cameras are the same does it take the same kind of pictures and is it really an upgrade from other reviewers it seems like the tensor 4 is just a hair bit better than the tensor 3. I really don't care about metrics but I had the pixel 8 for a little while and it just would overheat at times for me in the signal would drop and so I'm just wondering if they fix that and whether the new modem is actually a lot better than the modem that was in the pixel 8
Google knows that their cameras on their regular Pixel phones are their bread and butter so they're not gonna put it on their Fold phones on purpose. They should tho at that price point. Great review overall, better than most as you brought up a lot of great points. I usually like bigger phones but I'm actually more interested in the smaller Pro just like you. Having the S22U then the Pixel Fold and recently the Z Fold 6 made we realized that I like smaller phones as I could use it with one hand which I much appreciate.
I'm regards to gaming, the Pixel 9 Pro handles Genshin Impact at max settings quite nicely. Very smooth gameplay. I also have an iPhone 15 pro max and the performance is actually quite similar, if not the same.
Not sure it was mentioned but the pixel 9 pro phones have one if not the brightest screen with 3000 nits peak brightness. I went to the shop to compare it with my iphone 15 pro max, and boy, no comparison there.
Never used an iPhone in my life (nor will I). Was so hyped cause Pixel is finally coming to Nordic Europe, but nah. I'd be okay with less power but they've gone nuts with AI instead and the lag seems pretty bad because they've dedicated so much of it to AI. Not really sure whether to buy a new phone or just stick with the one I have. Samsung and OnePlus are huge here and it's a big market too, so saying this is mainly for users who come from an iPhone isn't exactly true. Pixel phones haven't been available here officially until now, and there are a lot of people who've been wanting one for ages. Such a shame this is the model we are first introduced to though.
Hi from 🇸🇪! After watching a bunch of review videos om starting to second guess if I should get the pixel 9Pro or go with the OnePlus 12 instead? What do you think😅
@@mikaela3619 I honestly can't answer that for you. Which device are you using now? A lot of people complain about stuttering with basic tasks, like browsing especially if you're coming from a Galaxy device it's very noticable. I am not even sure what to get myself right now cause all the flagships have some issue that I can't overlook..
I miss plastic backs, lighter, doesn't shatter , removable so sim doesn't need a tray, possibly even removable battery. Instead of the "premium feel" gimmick to make more money on replacement or repair.
I can save pictures view as previewed but videos are in opposite side if I put up my left hand in front facing video it shows that I have right hand up
Does anyone know if the Pixel 9 Pro having 16GB of RAM means it is more likely to use more battery than the Pixel 9 base model? And if so, how significant would that be?
You’re gonna anger some Google Fanboys with that insight. I pointed out the lag on Pocketnow’s review of the Pixel Watch 3 that was caught in slow motion (he had to double swipe because the first swipe didn’t register) and I got some comments ranging from “oh the 30hz energy saver was probably on” to straight up denial (once again it was caught in slow motion).
For the record, I received no compensation for this video whatsoever. If it was a sponsored video, I would disclose that. Regarding the transition between lenses, I was just happy the color and general appearance of the media was similar when transitioning. I totally understand where you're coming from though. It's nothing like a continuous zoom you would experience with one variable lens
@@MikeOBrienMedia You may not have been compensated but you were sent these phones before release and most likely didn't pay for them. That makes you inhernetly bias. Did you pay for them? Were they sent to you before general release?
Hello, I was wondering if It's possible to capture 4K60 video with 10-bit HDR enabled on the Rear Lens? The Pixel 8 Pro can only take HDR videos with 30 fps and I was wondering if it's changed on the newer phones.
I was thinking the same -- video was pretty bad in how jittery it was when panning, and how broken up the zoom levels are. Video Boost is supposed to help with smoothing out video, so hopefully that rings true.
@@AaronLaye it helps a bit, but those files come back extra large bro. If you're dead set on grabbing the phone, then go for 500 gigs because 128 is nothing, I'm already 14 gigs away from max storage.
I really dont get the hype around pixel software and ui, with this solid colors material ui with 0 transparency colors anywhere looks so dated to me its nuts. I really really like samsung ui and even ios much more than this. On the fluidity side i dont think i have a lagging phone, certainly not the 15 pro and the s24 ultra. Everyone is like google invented fluidity and all others software is laggy and bad when in fact both my phones feels as fast and fluid and a lot more fluid when switching between cameras or do camera shots in quick succession. In fact my friend's pixel 9 pro is so bad when u try to take fast photos one after another and definitely a lot slower to export high quality photos and videos. I really dont get the hype around these.
See this is what Samsung is lacking and why I left for iPhone. They had it right when they made the note 10 and 10 plus. The S22 plus and on should’ve been the ultra in a smaller version. The S24 plus should be a scaled down version of the ultra with the s pen and all if not most of the same features. Obviously smaller battery and screen, possibly camera but everything else identical. Pixel 9 pro is the ideal size over the XL for me and most people I know. Good work Google
This sort of practice is happening everywhere sadly. Like you buy the best version of today. But next year they come out with a new trim and now your once top tier trim now has less features but still have the same price tag, and the new trim now gets a free price bump. Such a greedy and bogus practice honestly.
Please, content creators, if you don't use something it doesn't mean that is a gimick. I use temp sensor all the time, I would like Samsung to add this too. Good video, but, please, focus more on WHAT PHONE GIVES and not if you use it or not, you review phones FOR OTHER PEOPLE not for you as an audience.
After the one year of Gemini advanced, all the features will be locked behind a paywall and the phone will just be nothing more than a lackluster phone if I don't want to pay $20 a month for Gemini?
None of the pixel exclusive features have been locked behind Gemini Advance so far. They haven't mentioned any feature being locked besides Gemini Live. Why would they lock features now, especially when there were no mention of them being Gemini Advance feature? Lawyers would have a good time suing Google for false advertisement.

I don't care about any app. All I want from a phone is to be fast, take the best photos, and if possible to not be the size of a tablet. I already have all the apps I need. Too bad there is no improvement on the photo, and the phone is not the fastest. If the phone is a little bit slower in certain situations now, imagine how much worse will be in 4-5 years. My last phone that I am now looking to replace is 7 yo and it is a Note 8. The reason I am looking to Pixel 9 pro, is because the latest Note devices are really big.
Same here I am very tempted to get the pixel 9 pro but I have been watching the reviews and it looks like the tensor 4 is not much better than the tensor 3. I have the regular Pixel 8 for a little while but I ended up selling it cuz it would just get really hot when I was using it and sometimes the signal would drop but besides that I really like the phone camera was great speech to text was great to Google features really good but I'm going to wait for the P10 on this one
Let me get this straight, you're looking at a phone whose whole schtick is the Gemini app and how well integrated it is to the phone, and you say you don't care about any app😂🤦
@@medraut6599 yes. I do not care about any AI. If there was an S24 with S24 camera module, I would be looking at that. I want top tier camera, android if possible because apple turns everything else in to shit, and a smaller size phone. Do you have any recommendation aside S9 and iPhone pro?
Thank FK Mike, I thought you were gunna slate it and I've pre-ordered it, but I'm upgrading from a Pixel 6 Pro, literally can't wait (and your sister is beautiful) also I'd love to see a Xiaomi Watch Pro 2 review, because it's a Smart watch that actually looks like a traditional watch, I might just buy it anyway as it's mega cheap, but I don't know if it's better than my Samsung 42mm
Yes, many reviews have highlighted the over-processing. Google's computational photography reached its nirvana a couple of years ago, and now the extra processing is giving diminishing returns.
Correction: ***1 Year with Gemini Advanced, not 2. Oops

When is Pixel Watch 3 review coming?
In case you missed it, I did make a first impressions video!
For the full review, it'll be another week or so until I have all my data collected
@@MikeOBrienMedia Yes I saw that. However waiting for the review to pre order it.
Make an video on s24 camera vs 9pro
Will probably use the screenshot app for screenshots of sports betting slips
We told them we were tired with curved screen so they gave us flat screen and people criticize that again.
Mike, Mike, Mike, Guess what day it is?!?!?! That's right, it's Mike's video day 😁
Android is "Apple-ing" that whole magsafe thing, they'll eventually relent...both Google and Samsung..
I don't care about any app. All I want from a phone is to be fast, take the best photos, and if possible to not be the size of a tablet. I already have all the apps I need. Too bad there is no improvement on the photo, and the phone is not the fastest. If the phone is a little bit slower in certain situations now, imagine how much worse will be in 4-5 years. My last phone that I am now looking to replace is 7 yo and it is a Note 8. The reason I am looking to Pixel 9 pro, is because the latest Note devices are really big.
Same here I am very tempted to get the pixel 9 pro but I have been watching the reviews and it looks like the tensor 4 is not much better than the tensor 3. I have the regular Pixel 8 for a little while but I ended up selling it cuz it would just get really hot when I was using it and sometimes the signal would drop but besides that I really like the phone camera was great speech to text was great to Google features really good but I'm going to wait for the P10 on this one
Let me get this straight, you're looking at a phone whose whole schtick is the Gemini app and how well integrated it is to the phone, and you say you don't care about any app😂🤦
@@medraut6599 yes. I do not care about any AI. If there was an S24 with S24 camera module, I would be looking at that. I want top tier camera, android if possible because apple turns everything else in to shit, and a smaller size phone. Do you have any recommendation aside S9 and iPhone pro?
Personally. It's Outrageous for Google to charge for Gemini after a period of time. Their products are Already becoming quite expensive in England.
It's crazy to charge for ability to call emergency. That should be illegal
Thank FK Mike, I thought you were gunna slate it and I've pre-ordered it, but I'm upgrading from a Pixel 6 Pro, literally can't wait (and your sister is beautiful)
also I'd love to see a Xiaomi Watch Pro 2 review, because it's a Smart watch that actually looks like a traditional watch, I might just buy it anyway as it's mega cheap, but I don't know if it's better than my Samsung 42mm
2 years?.....
Maybe it’s me but I don’t like the camera because it seems heavily over sharpened and video doesn’t seem smooth.
Yeah, definitely a lot of sharpening on the foliage in my test photos
Pixels have always been that way have they not?
Yes, many reviews have highlighted the over-processing. Google's computational photography reached its nirvana a couple of years ago, and now the extra processing is giving diminishing returns.
I don't think jolty is a great word there. Something between blurry and smeary
