Google Pixel 9 Pro XL after 2 months | An upgrade in every way

Google really outdone themselves with the Pixel 9 lineup this year and the 9 Pro XL is leading the pack. Just about every component was upgraded and the software has been refined.

Reviewing the Pixelbook Go after 5 yrs | Software that is outpacing the hardware

I acknowledge that I am a part of a very small club of users that still have and use this device but I must say that I still enjoy using the PBG every single day. Now, to the review.

I attended a Pixel Superfans event at the new Google Store in Santa Monica, CA

Last Friday, I had the opportunity to attend a Pixel Superfans event at the new Google Store in Santa Monica. It was a soft launch of the store and a good way to meet like minded people. The staff were very nice and helpful. While I was at the store I was able to finally check out the Pixel 9 Pro Fold and wow that device is extremely impressive.

Take a look at the pictures below including one of some swag I got from Google at the event.
