Google Pixel 9 Pro smartphone review - The compact flagship with great cameras

compact
sob
- I sob too
The software is great, but I wish the phone itself was more like the Galaxy series—lighter, thinner, and less outdated feeling.
Why are they shrinking the phones again. My Pixel 7 a is so annoyingly small.
- The 7a is massive, how big are your hands‽
  
  The 7 a is 6.3" while I came from a 6.7" device which I found still too small. 7" sounds about right for a pocket device, 13" good for a tablet. Haven't tried a 15", that one will be probably a bit on the heavy side.
- Well Google is supposed to make a bigger no pro pixel for the 10 series. So that might fit your needs
  
  Thanks -- I don't believe in buying expensive hardware for a sacrificeable personal device. Which is why I lag model-wise, my new Pixel 7 a was 335 EUR which is borderline acceptable.
- I got a pixel 9 and it's thicker and smaller and idk if I like it. I know I hate some of the software.
  
  You might want to check out GrapheneOS, a security-focused alternative ROM for Pixels. It's minimalistic, easy to install and has been painless so far.
