Been comparing the Pixel 9/10/11 and the gap is smaller than the marketing makes it sound, so curious what others think.

The way I read it: same 6.3in body all three years. The 9 actually has the biggest main sensor but no zoom lens. The 10 added a 5x zoom and the magnetic Qi2 charging but shrank the main camera. The 11 keeps the zoom, brings a bigger main sensor back, and bumps wireless to 25W. None of the base three get a vapor chamber, so they all throttle in long games.

My take: on a 10 I wouldn’t bother; on a 9 the zoom + magnets + faster wireless are the things you’d feel daily.

For the Pixel 9 and 10 owners here — has the camera or charging actually pushed anyone to upgrade, or is it a “wait for the 12” year?

    I’ve heard that the 11 didn’t change much from the 10, and degraded on some key points (security, which is why grapheneos is incompatible), so the 10 is often the recommendation
