Is Pixel 9 worth it? (instead of Pixel 8)
Is Pixel 9 worth it? (instead of Pixel 8)
I currently have an iPhone 14 Pro Max and I want to switch to an Android phone.
First of all, I eliminated all Chinese phones. Since Samsung has limited custom rom support, I gave up on that too. At the end, I decided to get a Pixel because of its GrapheneOS support.
But right now I'm stuck between Pixel 8 and 9. There's a big price difference with small improvements. I can afford both but not sure if Pixel 9 is worth it. What do you think?

If you don't mind using Meta services, you may have some luck with big discounts. I've seen BNIB Pixel 9's for as low as $475 on Facebook Marketplace, though most of them are $500-$550. I've purchased my last two Pixels through Marketplace and haven't encountered any issues.
That being said, I like my Pixel 8 Pro and the performance has been great, so I'm not sure the price difference for a brand new Pixel 9 direct from a retailer as opposed to a Pixel 8 is worth it unless you really like the squared off design of the 9.
