Google Pixel 9 vs Motorola Edge 60 Pro
Our Verdict: The Motorola Edge 60 Pro has the bigger battery of the two, 6000mAh against 4700mAh, which should mean longer between charges in day-to-day use, and the Edge 5G 60 Pro has the stronger screen, bigger at 6.7" against 6.3" and sharper at 444 PPI. Storage goes higher on the Edge 5G 60 Pro, up to 512GB against 256GB, and the Edge 5G 60 Pro is the lighter phone at 186g against 198g. Get the Edge 5G 60 Pro if those extras are worth it to you; otherwise the Google Pixel 9 covers the basics for less.
The Pixel 9 is the cheaper one to own: around £691 over a typical contract, £428 less than the Edge 5G 60 Pro.
