Is the Pixel 9 worth getting?

So, should you buy the Pixel 9 in the Flipkart Big Billion Days sale? The answer would be a resounding yes if you can live with a few of its drawbacks.

Google's Tensor G4 chip is decent for day-to-day performance, but it doesn't cut for gaming or heavy tasks.
The bezels on the display are rather huge, making the Pixel 9 look a bit dated from the front.
Pixel 9 comes with a 4,700mAh battery, but charging speeds are rather slow at 27W as per 2025 standards.
The Pixel 9 lacks a telephoto lens, which can be found in much more affordable devices like the Nothing Phone (3a) Pro.
For many, the Pixel 9 could be a bit heavy despite sporting a smaller form factor.

Google's Pixel devices are the most sought after by those who value clean software over raw specifications. At Rs 34,999, the Pixel 9, with its six more years of software updates and good cameras, cements itself as one of the best Pixel deals and is definitely worth buying.

While it won't perform as well as the Galaxy S24 Snapdragon variant, which will also be on sale for Rs 39,999, it gets you higher 256 GB storage, which is another plus point.
