Been comparing the Pixel 9/10/11 and the gap is smaller than the marketing makes it sound, so curious what others think.

The way I read it: same 6.3in body all three years. The 9 actually has the biggest main sensor but no zoom lens. The 10 added a 5x zoom and the magnetic Qi2 charging but shrank the main camera. The 11 keeps the zoom, brings a bigger main sensor back, and bumps wireless to 25W. None of the base three get a vapor chamber, so they all throttle in long games.

My take: on a 10 I wouldn't bother; on a 9 the zoom + magnets + faster wireless are the things you'd feel daily.

For the Pixel 9 and 10 owners here — has the camera or charging actually pushed anyone to upgrade, or is it a "wait for the 12" year?

I don't like smartphones and only have one as I needed to get it for a previous job. That being said I love wireless charging mainly because the easiest thing to break is a plug in charging cord. mag cords bring that to near zero but wireless charging brings it to actually zero.
