Another strange Pixel 9 Pro XL bug has surfaced, this one affects the camera of Google’s new flagship

While most early adopters of the Pixel 9 Pro XL seem to be happy with virtually everything their new phone can do, a few small but vocal user groups have apparently discovered a few shortcomings in Google’s latest giant phone in recent days.

Hot on the heels of the annoying reports of wireless charging issues, a new issue has just popped up on our radar that threatens to ruin the user experience for a number of people who are otherwise very happy with their Pixel 9 Pro units.
As Redditor “lordinarius” demonstrates in a video, something very unusual often happens with the phone’s 48MP periscope telephoto lens when the user switches from 2x to 5x zoom. You really have to see the bug to believe it (and understand it properly), and if you don’t believe this problem The Seriously, after watching the 6-second clip here, imagine this weird tilting behavior happening on all three rear-facing cameras on the Pixel 9 Pro XL.

Fortunately, there is only one user (for now) complaining that “every” of his lenses is “significantly off.” Several others agree with the original writer and claim the error is limited to the telephoto camera. Pixel 9 Pro devices or, oddly enough, a similar tilting behavior on the phone’s 48MP ultra-wide-angle camera. And for what it’s worth, most affected users seem to claim that the bug isn’t very easy to notice or particularly annoying… yet.

It’s of course not clear at this point what might be causing the weird angles that Google’s new super flagship randomly switches to when taking photos and even videos, but as with the wireless charging issues mentioned above, there’s hope that some sort of software fix will be available soon with an update.

Of course, for that to happen, Google needs to be made aware of the situation first, and we’re not entirely sure that’s the case at the moment, so you’re strongly advised to reach out to the search giant and send “feedback” on the new issue (with as much detail as possible) as soon as you notice your phone’s cameras tilting without any reason or justification.
