    Additionally, with the Pixel 9 holding down the power button no longer turns it off, you have to press power and volume up at the same time to get to the power menu.

    I had no idea... thank you! It's always a crapshoot if I take a screenshot or get into the power settings. So bizarre.

    There's usually a hardware level power off function for when the device freezes and stuff. Can usually hold the power button for ~10 seconds will power off the device without needing to look at the screen
