Google is gearing up to unveil its latest foldable device, the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, on August 13 as part of its new Pixel 9 smartphone lineup. This launch marks a shift in Google’s naming convention, as the foldable device is now integrated into the Pixel 9 series. Recent leaks have provided a sneak peek into the device’s design, color options, and expected pricing.
According to a report by 91Mobiles, the Pixel 9 Pro Fold will be available in two storage configurations: 256GB and 512GB. The projected US pricing for these models is $1,799 and $1,919, respectively. Interestingly, these prices are consistent with those of its predecessor, suggesting that Google is maintaining its pricing strategy for this second-generation foldable.
The device is expected to feature an 8-inch Super Actua main display and a 6.3-inch Actua cover display, both of which are reportedly larger than the displays on the original Pixel Fold. Color options are likely to include Obsidian and Porcelain.
In terms of features, the Pixel 9 Pro Fold is rumored to incorporate various AI-powered capabilities. These may include Circle to Search, Magic Editor, and Best Take. Additionally, a new feature called Add Me is speculated, which could allow users to seamlessly integrate individuals into group photos using AI technology.
Pixel 9 Pro Fold India Launch
Notably, the Pixel 9 Pro Fold is expected to launch in India, marking the first time a Google foldable device will be available in that market. The pricing for the Indian market has yet to be revealed, but it will be interesting to see how it compares to the premium pricing in the US.
As always, these details are based on leaks and should be considered speculative until Google officially confirms them.
In the meantime, as Google’s flagship smartphones approach their launch, recent leaks have shed light on what to expect from the Pixel 9 series. Renders have provided a detailed preview of the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro XL models, showcasing their design and color options. Notably, a pink variant of the Pixel 9 appears less vivid than earlier depictions had suggested.
