NCC filings indicated the base Pixel 9 model lacked UWB support.

Did it turn out to be true?

Right. It turned out the way this report said. It was reported on Jul 16, 2024 in Android Authority, and we could not tell who reported it first. That was 28 days before Google Pixel was announced on Aug 13, 2024. The NCC reporting said the base Pixel 9 lacked UWB. Google's final Pixel 9 specifications omit UWB while the Pro models explicitly list an Ultra-Wideband chip, corroborating the regulatory finding.
