More Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold NewsFoldables have indeed come a long way, especially in India. While earlier limited to Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold range, 2024 has provided enough variety from a number of manufacturers across foldable segments. You can now get one for as low as Rs. 64,999 in a flippable clamshell form factor or pony up Rs. 1,59,999 for a top-of-the-line book-style foldable that literally competes with premium slab-style smartphones. With the emergence of tri-fold devices, foldables even make those bloated iPhone price tags in India appear palatable for Android users.
Google’s Pixel 9 Pro Fold has a very slim design for a foldable both when closed and open. It has flat sides with a metal frame and rear and front panels made of glass. The design is IP rated but only for water.
Performance is just fine. But software seems to be optimised for battery savings and so is not a buttery smooth experience. Google 7 years of software and security updates along with the phone’s numerous AI features sweeten the deal. The phone comes with several image editing and image generation features which work well.
Camera performance is a bit below average given the phone’s price. The same applies to video recording which is also quite poor.
Battery life is a bit below average considering that the competition manages better. The same applies to wired and wireless charging speeds which are quite slow.
