Pixel 9 Pro Fold will be the slimmest and the largest foldable in town!

The Pixel Fold was the first foldable smartphone from Google, launched in June 2023. It mostly received positive reviews across the globe. And Google is bringing its successor, on its August 13 event launch. Without further ado, let’s get straight into the rumours surrounding the upcoming Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold in this article today.

Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold Rumors

Design and Display

The upcoming Pixel 9 Pro Fold is set to be one of the thinnest foldable smartphones, with dimensions of 155.2 x 77.1 x 10.5 mm when closed and 155.2 x 150.2 x 5.1 mm when open. The Pixel 9 Pro Fold comes with a huge 8-inch Super Actua Flex Display, known for its top-notch performance and flexibility, giving an immersive and dynamic visual experience.

Plus, it can reach a peak brightness of up to 2,700 nits, a significant upgrade from the original Pixel Fold’s 1,450 nits. This will make it the largest display for a foldable phone upon release, surpassing the Xiaomi MIX Fold 4’s 7.98-inch screen (or the MIX Fold 2’s 8.02-inch screen in older models). Additionally, the outer screen is a 6.3-inch Actua Display, which is larger than the Pixel Fold’s and matches the size of the Galaxy Z Fold 6’s outer screen.

Talking about the weight, the Pro Fold is lighter (weighing 257g) than the previous model,  but still is a bit heftier than the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and OnePlus Open, which each weigh 239g.

Battery and Storage:

The phone is expected to feature a 4,560mAh battery, which is quite impressive for a foldable device. This is better than the Samsung Galaxy Fold 5G’s 4,235mAh battery, showcasing an impressive improvement while having the challenges of fitting a larger battery into a foldable form factor.

About storage, the Pixel 9 Pro Fold offers options up to 512GB, which is competitive with the Galaxy Fold 5G’s storage options of 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB of UFS 4.0 internal storage.
