After revealing the Pixel 9 Pro and 9 Pro Fold design, Google’s teasing continues today with features and “22 reasons you should say goodbye to your phone.”
22 reasons you should say goodbye to your phone and hello to #Pixel9 Pro with Gemini 👋#MadeByGoogle
The YouTube Short cycles through 22 features for the Pixel 9 Pro, 9 Pro XL, and 9 Pro Fold — not the Pixel 9? — that we’ve grouped below, and speculate on:
Camera
- Not capturing the right moment: Best Take
- The sky not being right: Magic Eraser
- Photobombers: Magic Eraser
- Blurry photos: Unblur in Google Photos
- Wishing your photo had more scenery: Image generation?
- Concert videos that look too far away: Zoom Enhance was only announced for photography?
- Awkward photo request to strangers
- Mom never being in the pic
- Your toddler looking everywhere except the camera
- Half the fam looking at the camera

I have a bad feeling that most of these features are part of the "one year of free Gemini Advanced" included with the Pixel 9. I really hope that's not the case but they did it before with the free storage for the Pixel Tablet and phones and I just I can't see Google cannibalizing its services by offering AI features for free instead of using them to market for the paid plan. I hope I'm wrong!
Calling
- Spending hours on hold: Hold for Me
- Phone calls where you can barely hear the other person: Clear Calling
- Screening calls yourself: Call screen
Gemini
- So many emails. So little time: Summarize
- Scrubbing videos for answers: Ask this video
- Writer’s block: Help me write
- The same old memes: Image generation
Screenshot feature: Rumored ability to index contents of screenshots a la Recall
- Forgetting what restaurant your friend liked
- Forgetting the movie your friend recommended
- Forgetting the show your friend recommended
Misc
- Lost in translation: Live Translate
- Gatekeeping: ? iPhone supporting RCS
