Fresh leaks of the much-anticipated Google Pixel 9 have surfaced online, giving smartphone enthusiasts a glimpse of the upcoming flagship device. An unexpected source in Algeria has provided hands-on video of what appears to be a functional Pixel 9 unit, in a pretty pink colour. The leaked footage showcase the Pixel 9 in a stunning new colour variant, purportedly named “Peony” after the vibrant flower.

Google Pixel 9 Specs And Features (Expected)
Notably, the leaked Pixel 9 boasts 256GB of storage, suggesting it may be a fully operational unit rather than a mere prototype. This revelation has also fuelled speculation about enhanced hardware offerings in the upcoming Pixel 9 lineup. Previous rumours have hinted at significant upgrades for the base Pixel 9 model, including a boost to 12GB of RAM — a substantial improvement over the 8GB found in earlier iterations. This increase in memory could dramatically enhance multitasking capabilities and overall performance.
At the heart of the Pixel 9 series will be Google’s next-generation proprietary Tensor G4 chipset. The G4 is expected to deliver improved AI capabilities, faster performance, and enhanced energy efficiency compared to its predecessors. As anticipation builds, the source of these leaks, Hani Mohamed Bioud, has promised to reveal more details soon.
Google has officially announced that the Pixel 9 series and Pixel Watch 3 will be unveiled on August 13, earlier than their traditional October release date. This year’s event will take place at Google’s headquarters in Mountain View, California, marking a departure from the usual New York City venue. Typically, Google hosts its annual Pixel launch event in October, but this year, the company has taken a turn and announced a surprise Pixel event scheduled for August 13, almost two months ahead of the usual timeline.
Made By Google 2024 Event Time And Date
This year’s iteration of Made by Google event is scheduled for August 13, 2024, at 10:00 AM PT or 10:30 PM IST. The event, to be hosted at Googleplex in Mountain View, California, will be available for streaming on the Google Store page and Google’s YouTube channel.
While the tech giant hasn’t specifically mentioned any devices in it, but the invite read: “You’re invited to an in-person Made by Google event where we’ll showcase the best of Google AI, Android software and the Pixel portfolio of devices”.
This year’s Google event is scheduled earlier than last year’s, perhaps to get ahead of Apple’s annual September event. Google might be aiming to capture attention with its new Pixel devices and Gemini AI features before Apple introduces its latest iPhones and the stable iOS 18 with Apple Intelligence.
