Pixel user here, but I feel the same way. The fact that my phones are getting heavier instead of lighter seems counterintuitive on its face.

Pixel 1 (143g)

Pixel 3 (148g)

Pixel 5 (151g)

Pixel 8 (187g)

Pixel 9 Pro (198g)

Of course the displays of these models get bigger which presumably contributes to the weight increase. But still, you'd think parts get lighter over time, not heavier.

I'm just guessing, but I would assume that parts get _smaller_ (so, maybe lighter but not in a "less dense" way) but any space gained is taken up by new parts for new functionality or extra battery

Good point!
