Google will launch the Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Professional, Pixel 9 Professional XL, and Pixel 9 Professional Fold on August thirteenth, however the firm couldn’t wait that lengthy to point out them off. That’s why it already revealed the Pixel 9 Professional and Pixel 9 Professional Fold, confirming the leaked designs within the course of.
Google isn’t doing it solely to place an finish to the seemingly infinite stream of leaks that’s spoiling each Pixel 9 shock. In spite of everything, this can be a dance we see with each Pixel era. It’s greater than getting forward of leaks this yr. In any other case, Google may have teased the handsets again in Could at I/O 2024. It’s in all probability all concerning the imminent launch of the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Flip 6, which can compete instantly towards Google’s Pixels, together with the brand-new Pixel 9 Professional Fold.
I’m solely speculating, in fact, however that’s as a result of Google has gone above and past revealing the designs. In some markets, it’s already teasing a mysterious present that will probably be accessible to fortunate patrons who order quick.
Pixel followers in Australia, Japan, and Singapore will probably be entitled to the particular preorder freebie. That is in accordance with teasers that appeared on the native Google Shops now that Google has proven the Pixel 9 Professional and Pixel 9 Professional Fold clips in teaser movies.
The primary teaser says, “Be the primary to order the brand new Google Pixel 9 Professional telephones and obtain a restricted version collectible.” It exhibits a mysterious Google-branded field and tells clients it’s a “limited-time supply, whereas provide lasts.” Faucet the “Don’t miss out” button, and also you’ll see a bigger photograph of the field which may ship together with your preorder.
It’s apparently a “limited-edition collectible,” a “particular present” that early adopters will obtain. Google additional teases what the field may comprise, hinting it’s part of the Pixel design historical past:
Personal a bit of Google Pixel design historical past, completely for the primary orders of our new Pixel 9 Professional telephones. Restricted time whereas provide lasts – be fast.
What may it’s? There are not any flawed guesses right here. Possibly it’s an LG Nexus 4, which is technically a bit of Google Pixel design historical past. Possibly it’s a rear-facing fingerprint sensor that was discovered on early Pixel telephones. Or maybe you’ll get Challenge Soli components that Google by no means used past the Pixel 4. Possibly it’s the digital camera bar that’s going away on the Pixel 9 telephones.
That stated, I’m intrigued. I’m wondering why Google has chosen these particular markets for the restricted promotion. The corporate should be attempting to extend gross sales in these international locations this yr, with a giant deal with the dearer Pixel 9 Professional fashions.
Talking of nations the place the Pixel 9 telephones will probably be accessible, it appears like Google is about to launch the Pixel 9 Professional Fold in a number of markets, together with Australia, Japan, and Singapore, the place it’s operating this preorder deal. Different markets will embrace the US, UK, Canada, Denmark, Germany, France, and Taiwan. These are the international locations the place native Google Shops have posted the brand new Pixel 9 teaser.
The primary-gen Pixel Fold obtained a way more restricted launch. Google solely offered it within the US, UK, Germany, and Japan.
With a number of weeks to go till Google’s August thirteenth Pixel 9 occasion, I wouldn’t be shocked to see this preorder perk get leaked earlier than then.
