According to some leaks, Google is expected to launch its new lineup of Pixel phones on August 20th, and while most eyes are on the main Pixel 10, there’s another exciting device on the way: the Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold.
Last year’s Pixel 9 Pro Fold was a huge step forward for foldable phones. This year, it seems Google is focusing on refining that winning formula rather than making massive changes. So, what can we expect from the new foldable? Here’s everything we know so far.
The Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold aims to set new standards in the foldable phone market, building upon the successes of its predecessor.
1. Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold, Super-Smart Brain
The phone will likely be powered by Google’s brand-new Tensor G5 chip. This is the first processor of its kind, built using an advanced 3nm process, which means you can expect it to be faster and more efficient than ever before.
2. A Brighter, Bigger Front Screen
The outer “cover” display is rumored to be getting a small size bump from 6.3 inches to 6.4 inches. More importantly, it’s expected to be much brighter, with smaller bezels, making it even better for use when the phone is closed. The main 8-inch folding screen inside is expected to stay the same size.
3. All-Day Battery Life (and Then Some)
There’s a good chance the Pixel 10 Pro Fold will come with a slightly bigger battery, around 5,015mAh. This should help you get through a full day of heavy use with ease. It will also support both 23W fast wired charging and 15W wireless charging.
4. Same Great Cameras
If you loved last year’s cameras, you’re in luck. The Pixel 10 Pro Fold is expected to keep the same camera system: a 48MP main camera, a 10.5MP ultrawide lens, and a 10.8MP telephoto lens with 5x zoom. The front cameras for selfies are also expected to remain the same at 10MP.
5. More Storage for Your Memories
While the phone will still come with a powerful 16GB of RAM, Google is reportedly adding a new 1TB storage option. This is perfect for anyone who loves to shoot high-quality videos, download lots of apps, or store their entire photo library on their device.
6. Thinner and Lighter Design
The new Fold could be slightly slimmer than its predecessor, measuring about 5.1 mm when unfolded and 10.5 mm when closed. It might weigh around 257 grams, making it feel sleek and modern in your hands.
7. The Latest Android Experience
As a Google phone, it will be one of the first to run Android 16 right out of the box, offering the cleanest and most up-to-date software experience.
8. Built to Last
This could be a big one: the Pixel 10 Pro Fold might be the first foldable phone to get an IP68 rating. This means it would have top-tier protection against dust and water, giving you extra peace of mind.
9. What’s the Price?
Good news for your wallet! The price is expected to stay the same as last year’s model, starting at $1,799. While not cheap, it’s great that Google isn’t increasing the price for these new refinements.
10. When Can You See It?
Mark your calendars for August 20th. That’s when Google is holding its “Made by Google” event, where the Pixel 10 Pro Fold is expected to be officially unveiled.
