Google Pixel 9 series was launched earlier this week at the company's annual Made by Google event. The vanilla Pixel 9 comes with an Actua OLED display, while the Pixel 9 Pro and Pixel 9 Pro XL models ship with LTPO Super Actua screens. However, a recent listing of the phones on the Pixel support page suggested that the display quality and connectivity features for Pixel 9 models vary across different markets. The Indian variants of Pixel 9 Pro and Pro XL were listed with non- LTPO displays.

As spotted on the Pixel support page by GSMArena, the Pixel 9 Pro and Pixel 9 Pro XL for India, Malaysia, and Singapore were listed with different displays compared to other variants for the rest of the world. The Pixel 9 Pro phones for these regions were allegedly listed with an Actua Display instead of a Super Actual Display (LTPO). 

However, at the time of writing, Google revised the display type of Pixel 9 Pro and Pixel 9 Pro XL for India, Malaysia, and Singapore markets and changed it to Super Actua display.

There were also discrepancies in Wi-Fi capabilities of Pixel 9 Pro and Pixel 9 Pro XL across regions. As per screenshots of the listing shared by the publication, the Pixel 9 Pro units sold in India lack support for Wi-Fi 7. However, that's because the regulatory authorities in India don't allow it. The phone probably has the hardware and full Wi-Fi 7 support should be available via a software update once the regulators in India give a green signal.
