SpecificationGoogle Pixel 9 ProSamsung Galaxy A54 5G
Release year20242023
Display6.3-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.

6.4-inch FHD+ Super AMOLED; 1080 × 2340; 1,000 nits Samsung
Refresh rateSmooth 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.

Brightness and contrastUp to 2,000 nits (HDR) and up to 3,000 nits peak; >2,000,000:1 contrast

Telephoto camera48 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.

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.
