I lived in Arizona from 1969-72. Looks like saguaro to me. Would like to see entire plant.
It's not a saguaro. The arms are different. The spines are different (in fact, there aren't many). And the flowers are very different.

In the southern Sonoran desert a larger cactus exists called the Cordon. I don’t think it exists in the USA as it is less cold tolerant. It is about 30% larger than the Saguaro and lives to 300 years, verses 200 years for the saguaro.
I've seen many cardon grandes. Their flowers are HUGE! These are quite small. And the buds look totally different. They are beautiful.
