If you are a technology enthusiast, you probably care more about its specifications.  But if you&#39;re a math fanatic, you might have been hoping for a teaser on March 14.<\/div>\n<h2>A sad day for all those who are math enthusiasts and Pixel fans<\/h2>\n<div>\n<div id=\"gallery-55326e41-1db3-4475-94e5-7027fae022b8\" class=\"single-image-container full-width-element\">\n<div class=\"gallery-item\">\n<picture style=\"padding-top: 56.25%\"><source media=\"(max-width: 350px)\" ><source media=\"(min-width: 351px) and (max-width: 500px)\" ><source media=\"(min-width: 501px) and (max-width: 800px)\" ><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wikidollar.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Pixel-9-announcement-could-have-been-historically-epic-but-Google.jpg\" alt=\"The Pixel 9 announcement could have been historically epic, but Google narrowly missed the opportunity\"\/><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>March is the third month of the year and 3.14 are the first three digits of pi (\u03c0), so March 14 is celebrated as Pi Day.<\/p>\n<div>As <span style=\"font-style: italic;\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/9to5google.com\/2024\/03\/14\/google-pixel-9-teaser-oppurtunity\/\" class=\"external\">9to5Google<\/a><\/span>    Note, it&#39;s become a tradition for Google to celebrate Pi Day by using its phones to represent some of the starting numbers. <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/madebygoogle\/status\/1768291955245764887\" class=\"external\">This year<\/a>the company spelled out the first eight digits or 3.141592 and instead of using an image of the <span>Pixel 9<\/span> for the seventh digit, it&#39;s an inverted Pixel 6. <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">What a spoilsport.<\/span><\/div>\n<div>Google probably didn&#39;t want to sacrifice the mystery surrounding the <span>Pixel 9<\/span> just for a social media post.
