The Google Pixel 9 series was launched by the company on Tuesday alongside the Pixel Watch 3 and Pixel Buds Pro 2 wireless headset. While the search giant's latest devices will be available for purchase in India via Flipkart, Google also announced that customers will also be able to purchase them via third party retail stores in the country. The company has also announced that it has opened up walk-in centres that will offer same-day repairs for Pixel smartphones and wearables in the country in two cities.
In addition to offline retail stores for its new Pixel smartphones and wearables, Google announced that it has started producing the first Pixel 8 handsets in India. The company has also revealed that it will also start to manufacture the midrange Pixel 8a model in India.
The company announced that it has opened two new Walk-in Centres in Bengaluru and Delhi to offer support and service for its Pixel phones in the country. Google also says that a third store will be opened in Mumbai in the future.
At these centres, Google will offer repairs, replacements and support for Pixel smartphones, smartwatches, wireless headsets, as well as Fitbit and Nest devices, at these centres. The company says that Flipkart's F1 Info Solutions and Services will enable it to offer same day repairs on some products.
Google has sold its Pixel and Nest devices in India exclusively via Flipkart, but this is set to change with the arrival of the Google Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, Pixel 9 Pro XL, Pixel 9 Pro Fold, Pixel Watch 3 and Pixel Buds Pro 2.
These new devices will be available via over 150 Croma and Reliance Digital retail outlets in 15 cities in the country. They will also be available to purchase via Flipkart, like the company's previous devices.
The first devices to go on sale in India will be the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro XL, which will be available via these retail outlets starting on August 22, according to the company. There's no word from Google on whether the company's older Pixel smartphones and wearable devices will also be available via offline retail channels.
Editor's note: This story has been updated to clarify that Google's new products will be available for purchase via retail outlets, while the walk-in centres will offer service and repairs.
