Alongside the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, there are also new photos of the other 3 Pixel 9 series phones, starting with the Pixel 9.
NCC, a Taiwanese regulatory agency, has recently certified the Pixel 9 series. As part of the certification report, it has shared photos, including the first real world photos of the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, as well as battery sizes and charging speed.
The NCC also certified a 45W charger with a round design.
This charger is likely meant for Pixel 9 Pro XL, as the NCC reports an approximate charging speed of 32.67 W. The maximum speed will be faster - for reference, while Pixel 8 is advertised as supporting 27W fast charging, the NCC reports its charging speed as 24.66 W.
Knowing this and that the new charger supports 45W fast charging, Pixel 9 Pro XL might have an advertised charging speed of 45W.
