Brilliant screen for games and video ; Versatile and fun camera ; Long software update commitment ; Superb build and design ; Thin and well-balanced ; Free year of Gemini Advanced

Slow charging ; Heavy ; Expensive

Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold review

The original Pixel Fold wasn't exactly the success Google was hoping for. It had its upsides, but the device wasn't well-received by the consumers....

One of the brightest displays on a foldable.

Thick bezels, polarizing back design.

In conclusion, while the Pixel 9 Pro Fold faces stiff competition at its premium price point, it offers a strong overall package. It may not introduce groundbreaking innovations, but for those looking for a reliable foldable with long-term software...

Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold review: in great shape

I can't overstate how nice it feels to use the Pixel 9 Pro Fold's inner screen. I've never felt so smug using all my little apps at the coffee shop on a big screen, folding it in half, and putting it in my pocket.

Excellent outer screen format ; Inner screen is lovely to use ; Seven years of OS updates

Expensive ; Main camera isn’t as good as slab phones ; Long-term durability?

This foldable comes with its tradeoffs: the downgraded camera hardware; durability concerns; and oh yeah, the eighteen hundred US dollars it costs. But I think Google made the right tradeoffs here to optimize the inner screen experience. It’s an...

Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold Review

High-quality hardware ; Excellent displays ; Solid wireless performance ; Good cameras ; Lots of AI

Lacks advanced productivity features ; Battery life is only average ; Expensive

Google's heavily revised Pixel 9 Pro Fold is an attractive, book-style folding phone that banks on the power of Gemini AI to appeal to early adopters, but it falls just short of Samsung when it comes to productivity perks.

Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold Review: Twice as Nice, High Price

The Pixel 9 Pro Fold is a nice mini tablet that doubles as a ‘normal' phone, but it sometimes feels like you're not getting the best Pixel experience despite the $1,800 price.

Front screen feels like a normal phone. 8-inch inner screen looks spectacular and is great for split-screen apps. Thinner and lighter (but still a bit heavy). Good performance, smart software, and reliable battery life.

Missing features from the Pixel 9 Pro. Might not work on your wireless charger. Annoying sounds. Stupid expensive.

Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold Review: Expanding Android In Full Force - SlashGear

The Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold is the biggest Android smartphone yet produced by Google -- as soon as you unfold it. Until then, it's effectively a Pixel 9!

Full Pixel 9 experience on the outside ; Expanded Pixel 9 experience inside ; Cameras aren't exactly like other 9 Pros, but they're still great ; Industrial Design is on-point ; Feels robust enough to use without fear of accidental damage ; 120Hz...

Considerable cost ; Some features lesser than those of other Pixel 9 Pro devices ; Gets a little warm when playing games in unfolded mode ; 120Hz refresh, bright screen drain battery quick
