Google Pixel 9 Pro: 16 GB RAM, 128 GB–1 TB; rest-of-world model GEC77 (5G Sub-6), US model GR83Y (adds mmWave), Japan GWVK6. The Pixel 9 Pro XL offers the same hardware with a 6.8-inch display and a larger battery.

Apple iPhone 14: iPhone 14 (2022); 128, 256 and 512 GB. UK and European models (e.g. A2882) use nano-SIM plus eSIM; the US model A2649 is eSIM-only and supports mmWave 5G. The iPhone 14 Plus and iPhone 14 Pro are separate models.

Specification	Google Pixel 9 Pro	Apple iPhone 14
Release year	2024	2022
Display	6.3-inch (161 mm) Super Actua LTPO OLED; 1280 × 2856, 495 ppi, 20:9; HDR support It is a higher-resolution panel in the same body as the Pixel 9; 495 ppi renders text and photo edges more sharply. Because the corners are rounded, the visible area is slightly smaller than the measured diagonal. Google	6.1-inch Super Retina XDR OLED; 2532 × 1170 pixels, 460 ppi; HDR, True Tone, wide colour (P3) Typical maximum brightness is 800 nits, with a 1200-nit peak in HDR content; typical contrast is 2,000,000:1. Because the corners are rounded, the visible area is slightly smaller than a 6.06-inch rectangle. Apple
Refresh rate	Smooth Display, 1–120 Hz (LTPO) The LTPO panel drops as low as 1 Hz for static content and the always-on display to save power, and rises to 120 Hz when scrolling. Google notes 120 Hz is not available in every app. Google	—
Brightness and contrast	Up to 2,000 nits (HDR) and up to 3,000 nits peak; >2,000,000:1 contrast HDR brightness is measured with the whole screen lit and peak brightness with only 5% lit; the peak applies to small bright areas in sunlight. Google	—
Cover glass and build	Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 front and back (silky matte back); polished aluminium frame The finishes are the reverse of the Pixel 9, which has a glossy back and a matte frame. The aluminium in the housing is 100% recycled. Google	—
Durability	IP68 dust and water resistance (IEC 60529) Google notes the protection can diminish with wear, repair or drops and that liquid damage voids the warranty. Google	—
Processor	Google Tensor G4; Titan M2 security coprocessor It is the same chip as the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro XL; there is no performance difference. Google	—
Memory and storage	16 GB RAM; 128 GB, 256 GB, 512 GB or 1 TB storage There is no card slot; storage and colour options vary by region. Google	—
Main camera	50 MP Octa PD wide; f/1.68, 82° field of view, 1/1.31-inch sensor; optical + electronic stabilisation Pro controls allow full 50 MP capture; the Pixel 9 only saves binned 12.5 MP photos. Optical quality is offered at 0.5x, 1x, 2x, 5x and 10x. Google	—
Ultrawide camera	48 MP Quad PD; f/1.7, 123° field of view, 1/2.55-inch sensor, autofocus, Macro Focus Google	—
Telephoto camera	48 MP Quad PD; f/2.8, 22° field of view, 5x optical zoom, 1/2.55-inch sensor, optical stabilisation; Super Res Zoom up to 30x Magnification beyond 5x is done in software; Google says 10x still gives near-optical quality. A multi-zone laser (LDAF) sensor assists focusing. Google	—
Front camera	42 MP Dual PD with autofocus; f/2.2, 103° ultrawide Google	—
Video	Rear: 8K 30 fps with Video Boost, 4K and 1080p at 24/30/60 fps, 10-bit HDR, Super Res Zoom Video up to 20x, Night Sight Video; front: 4K 30/60 fps Video Boost processes recorded video on Google’s cloud servers to improve colour, lighting and stabilisation, so the result is not available immediately and an internet connection is needed. 8K and Super Res Zoom Video are only available with Video Boost on. Google	4K Dolby Vision HDR at 24/25/30/60 fps; Cinematic mode up to 4K HDR at 30 fps; Action mode up to 2.8K at 60 fps; 1080p slo-mo at 120/240 fps Recording formats are HEVC and H.264, with stereo audio. 8 MP stills can be taken while recording 4K video.
