Google has officially confirmed that it will be unveiling the Pixel 9 series at its August 13 launch event. This is a notable shift from Google’s usual October launch window for new Pixel devices, making it intriguing to see the reason behind this significant change.
Earlier in the day, Google sent out invites for a hardware launch event in August, which came as a surprise to many of us. While the invitation didn’t explicitly mention the Pixel 9 series, it was widely assumed that this would be the focus of the event. Google has now confirmed these assumptions, putting an end to speculation.
A new teaser page on the Google Store further confirms the Pixel 9 launch. It features a video that subtly reveals the design of the Pixel 9 series, aligning with leaks that have circulated for months. The video also cleverly includes “IX” to confirm the phone’s name. The page’s URL even includes “google_pixel_9_pro,” leaving no doubt about the upcoming release.
