Overview
- Google’s Pixel 10 Pro Fold is now on sale, drawing direct comparisons with Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 7 in the premium book-style foldable tier.
- Google’s model is the first book-style foldable rated IP68 for dust and water resistance, while Samsung’s Fold 7 carries an IP48 rating.
- PixelSnap adds Qi2-based magnetic accessory support with 15W wireless charging, and Google bundles a year of Gemini AI Pro; Samsung includes six months of Gemini access.
- Samsung’s Fold 7 is notably slimmer and lighter at 215 grams and about 8.9mm folded, with a less pronounced inner-screen crease and reduced glare in hands-on use.
- Camera trade-offs pit Google’s 48MP system with 5x optical zoom against Samsung’s 200MP setup with 3x, as launch-week discounts drop the Fold 7 to around $1,599, roughly $200 less than the Pixel.
