Overview

• Google’s book-style foldable goes on sale today, entering a direct matchup with Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 7.
• Retail discounts of about $400 put the Z Fold 7 near $1,599 versus the Pixel 10 Pro Fold’s $1,799 launch price.
• The Pixel 10 Pro Fold is the first book-style foldable with an IP68 rating, and Google says its hinge is built for 10 years of folding.
• Native Qi2 wireless charging under PixelSnap brings MagSafe-style magnetic accessories and 15W wireless charging, making it the only flagship Android foldable with this support right now.
• Trade-offs include Google’s 48MP main camera with 5x optical zoom versus Samsung’s slimmer design, smaller crease, and 200MP main, with reviewers noting the Pixel feels bulkier and less “pro.”
