Google will blame import taxes etc, but I don't think that's the only reason. Maybe India isn't an important market for hardware. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtheK Posted August 22, 2024 Report Share Posted August 22, 2024 I am tempted to upgrade to Pixel 9 pro from Samsung S23 ultra. Can get a good deal from abroad for sure in sometime. Worth it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dante77 Posted August 22, 2024 Report Share Posted August 22, 2024 This time, I am thinking of buying a high end device device mainly for Camera and in that especially the Telephoto lens. I just don't see Pixel 9 pro anywhere. Either 9 or 9 Pro XL. Reviewers for the first time did not mention any bugs for pixel devices lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only the 9 and 9 Pro XL have launched in India, for now. Pre-orders for 9 Pro and 9 Pro Fold will start by the end of this month, apparently.

Houndini Posted August 27, 2024 Report Share Posted August 27, 2024 Pixel 9 series is practically free in US. https://x.com/jmwilt21/status/1828205982029054305 And most expensive in India. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZooZoo Posted August 28, 2024 Report Share Posted August 28, 2024 US always gets the best deals irrespective of brand. Samsung also gives loads of freebies and incredible exchange offers. Sala Indians ke pass bahut paisa hai na jo hame loot ke US ko deals dete hai ye log. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't Google improve video since last year? I thought there was a massive shift. IPhone does videos really well, specially since they are natively shot in DV. https://x.com/artemr/status/1828655053928030260?s=46&t=P9sKvrVPgRE_3Ur_zyvcSg So same as previous pixels.

dante77 Posted August 29, 2024 Report Share Posted August 29, 2024 (edited) G4 as mentioned by reviewers, remain an underperforming chipset. Usually I don't care about raw power in phones because I don't play games in it but it should be at least on par with mid level devices when you charge premium. Another miss is portraits, the only reason for me to get high end camera is telephoto lens because of its portrait shots and this was major miss from Google's side.

Doesnt Pixel do portraits? Haven't looked at reviews so don't know. I really doubt the ability of that chipset to run Android updates after 5/7 years as promised by Google.

I mean portrait shots from their telephoto/normal camera is not as good compared to S24 ultra or iPhone 15 pro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really? I doubt it. If pixels are good at anything, it's camera. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arguably the best. But their portrait shots are years behind. Especially around the edges and overall clarity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
