Google will launch the Pixel 9 series on August 13, 2024, which will be its first event in August, a month before the iPhone 16 launch. A tipster revealed a bold bright pink Pixel 9, a departure from Google’s usual mint and light blue. This new vibrant variant adds a unique twist to the lineup, promising to grab a lot of attention. Google’s decision to introduce such a bold colour option reflects a shift towards more daring design choices, making the launch of the Pixel 9 series even more exciting for consumers and tech enthusiasts.

X user Hani Mohamed Bayod shared the first hands-on photos of the Pixel 9 in its new pink color, thanks to Brandon Lee on X for the discovery. He claimed the device was found in Algeria/ While Bayod couldn’t identify the Pixel 9 Pro or Pixel 9 Pro XL or any other color variants, the pink Pixel 9 has generated a lot of buzz.

Although the video compression by X/Twitter doesn’t capture the full vibrancy of the colour, it still gives a glimpse of Google’s bold new design choice. Moving away from its usual muted shades, Google’s decision to go for pink might appeal to general consumers who want something new and vibrant. And if these rumours turn out to be true, this will be the first time Google will experiment with such bold colours for its flagship series.

The video also highlights the prominent camera bar, which protrudes substantially from the back of the device. The Pixel 9’s square iPhone-like frame has significantly curved corners, promising a more comfortable grip than the sharp edges of competitors like the Galaxy S24 Ultra.

The company has teased the launch to take place on August 13. However, Google has not revealed the number of devices included in the Pixel 9 series. Reports suggest that the timing is strategic, positioning the launch a month ahead of Apple’s anticipated iPhone 16 unveiling in September. The Made by Google keynote will begin at 10 a.m. PT and will be live streamed on YouTube. According to the event invitation, Google will showcase the best of its AI, Android, and Pixel devices. We are expecting the launch of the new Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro, and rumors suggest that a new Pixel Pro variant and the Pixel Fold, renamed as the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, could also be introduced. The Pixel 9 series is expected to bring major upgrades in design, performance, and functionality.
