Google Pixel 9 references spotted in Google app

The Google Pixel 9 references have been spotted in the Google app. The news comes from AssembleDebug, who shared the news via The SP Android. Those references were found in the latest Google app beta build, version 15.14.34.29.

The Pixel 9 references end up being spotted in the Google app

The source shared two files that reference the Pixel 9, actually. One of them has an amination file that will likely appear on the upcoming Pixel 9. You can check out both files below, there’s really nothing to write home about here.

These are clear Pixel 9 references, and you can see the animation that is expected to appear below this paragraph. It’s kinda nice, but there’s nothing much to talk about here, to be quite honest.

The ‘Pixie’ assistant was not mentioned

The source also notes that there’s no indication of the ‘Pixie’ assistant anywhere in the app. As some of you may know, the ‘Pixie’ assistant was mentioned a while back. That is supposed to become an AI assistant exclusive to Pixel devices. We don’t know much about it, though.

Now, Google is actually expected to deliver three Pixel 9 devices this year. The entry-level model will be called the Pixel 9, while the standard two models will be the Pixel 9 Pro and Pixel 9 Pro XL.

The Pixel 9 Pro and Pixel 9 Pro XL are here to replace the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro, it seems. The Pixel 9 is a new addition to the lineup, and no, that’s not the Pixel 8a. That’s a completely separate device that will likely arrive next month during Google I/O.

All three Pixel 9 smartphones, on the other hand, are expected to arrive in early October, during Google’s Pixel event. We’re only guessing that’s when it will take place, of course, Google could change its mind and move it to September.
