TL;DR
- The Pixel 9 is apparently already on sale unofficially in Algeria.
- We can see the device in its Pink color in these leaked hands-on images.
Google has officially teased the launch of the Pixel 9 series for August 13, 2024. While everyone wonders why Google is breaking tradition with an early launch, an eagle-eyed enthusiast has already spotted the Pixel 9 on sale in Algeria, North Africa.

The user could not spot the Pixel 9 Pro or the Pixel 9 Pro XL on sale, nor could they spot any other colors of the Pixel 9.
X/Twitter’s video compression algorithm doesn’t do justice to the hands-on video, but we still get a fair idea of the shiny new color. I love that Google is going for some pretty colors rather than muted shades, and these are bound to click with the average consumer. We can also see the big camera bar, which extends significantly from the back of the device. We also see the squared-off iPhone-like frame, but thankfully, the corners of the device are significantly curved and will be easier to hold than, say, a sharp, pointy Galaxy S24 Ultra.
We’re expecting to see three devices launch in the Pixel 9 series this year: the Pixel 9, the Pixel 9 Pro, and the larger-sized Pixel 9 Pro XL. We’ve also seen previous leaks of the lineup from Rozetked, and we’ve seen them pitted against their predecessors.
