Google offers 128GB of storage for the Pixel 9 Pro and XL, but that’s nowhere near enough for a flagship built to last seven years.
Agreed. I desperately wanted a Pixel phone with 1TB, when I saw that not only is the Pro available in a normal size model this year, BUT with a 1TB option I got excited…until I saw that it adds $500 to the base price of the phone, bringing it to a whopping $1499.
I’m gonna wait and see what the pricing looks like on Black Friday. I was originally wanting to keep my Pixel 8 until support ran out, but I’m already over half full on my 256gb, and my screen is having the green screen issues. I know I can get it warrantied, but the 1tb normal sized Pro is just a tempting option.
Wow that pricing is rough. They usually knock $200 off the price of pixels pretty quickly, and not just on Black Friday. They also f around with the trade in pricing which I think is a bad look, especially for their own products.
Yeah it’s absolutely awful. I haven’t checked out the trade-in pricing. I haven’t ever tried that before, I was considering trading in my pixel 8, but I like having a spare in case something happens to my main phone and it needs to be repaired.
But yes, I agree it is a bad look.
My spare is still my 3XL. It would be rough. You could always pick up an a series if you need a phone quickly
