August 13 is the date when Pixel 9 smartphones are to debut with the foldable Pixel 9 Pro Fold. By bringing over this new foldable to the Pixel 9 series, Google is departing with its naming convention. We presented Pixel 9 Pro Fold renders not long ago and currently, almost as a follow-up act, pricing in the US has been disclosed by OnLeaks to our friends at 91mobiles via promo images.
The Upcoming Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold
OnLeaks similarly reported that the Pixel 9 Pro Fold will come in two storage options: a base model with 256GB of storage for $1,799 (roughly ₹₹1,50,649) and, 512GB variant for $1919 (around ₹1,60,698). This is the same price as last year’s original Pixel Fold, so there has been no increase for Google with its second foldable.
We have official confirmation that the Pixel 9 Pro Fold will be sold in India, which is set to become only the second market where a Google foldable phone has had an official release. It will be interesting to watch the Indian pricing given how steep prices are already in the US.
We have already described the design of the Pixel 9 Pro Fold in more detail. Both Obsidian and Porcelain colors go on sale. More precisely, the promo images uncover some of this info about the new device’s form factor and display. The Pixel 9 Pro Fold will replace the main display with an 8-inch Super Actua screen and use a larger, 6.3-inch Actua cover despite this being bigger than what’s on offer from the regular model.
It will also integrate AI functionality that includes Circle to Search, Magic Editor, and Best Take. It will also introduce a new ‘Add Me’ feature, which uses AI to add someone to a group shot, making it look like they were there when the photo was taken.
The Pixel 9 Pro Fold will come with the Titan M2 security chip and built-in VPN. In the box, you’ll find a USB Type-C to Type-C cable and a SIM ejector tool, but no charging adapter. In terms of specs, the Pixel 9 Pro Fold is expected to be powered by the Tensor G4 chipset with up to 16GB of RAM. It may feature a 48MP main camera, a 10.5MP ultra-wide camera, and a 10.8MP telephoto camera. For selfies, it could house a 10MP camera.
