Pixel 6 Pro to Pixel 9 (lemmy.world)

After having the XL versions of Pixels before this one, the size isn't so bad. Its usable in one hand and I've been really liking the flat edges/screen.

The battery is almost the same as my 6 Pro toward the end of its life.

The display resolution looks really good in person. I really appreciate the brighter screen so that more than makes up for the lack of sharpness compared to the 6 Pro.

Cameras are great as usual for these phones. I didn't realize how many features they added on to Pixels since the 6 line.

The AI features are gimmicky and I'll just leave it at that.

A solid 8/10 phone for me. Definitely feels like an upgrade even for a base model.

How's everyone liking/disliking theirs?

I'm still using the 6 (regular) until it's truly end of life, then if I don't like what's on offer I might just keep using LineageOS or something. I'm trying to reduce my reliance on Play Services right now so this is a long-term goal for me lol. Right now the 9 just turns me off with the half-baked AI garbage. Plus I don't really want to drop a ton of money on a phone, now or in general.
