Overview

• The Pixel 10 Pro Fold is officially priced at Rs 1,72,999 in India, narrowly undercutting Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 7 at Rs 1,74,999 for comparable 256GB models.
• Google touts the first IP68 rating on a foldable, though its own fine print warns resistance can degrade over time and liquid damage is not covered under warranty.
• Specs diverge on performance strategy with Google’s 3nm Tensor G5 versus Samsung’s 3nm Snapdragon 8 Elite, and early benchmarks report a multi‑core edge for Snapdragon.
• Tradeoffs include Google’s larger 5,015mAh battery with 30W wired and 15W Qi2 magnetic charging against Samsung’s thinner, lighter build, 4,400mAh pack, and a higher 500,000‑fold durability claim versus Google’s 200,000.
• Best Buy in the U.S. is offering up to $760 off the Pixel 10 Pro Fold with trade‑in plus a free e‑gift card up to $350, as coverage notes the foldable’s deliveries are slated for October in some markets.
