Google unveils its $1,799 Pixel 10 Pro Fold

At its Made by Google 2025 event, the company unveiled its next foldable, the Pixel 10 Pro Fold, alongside the rest of the new Pixel 10 line. The foldable comes with a new gearless hinge, camera improvements, and a Tensor G5 chip to deliver higher quality AI experiences. The device starts at $1,799 and is available in Moonstone and Jade. It features 16GB of RAM and up to 1TB of storage.

The phone’s new gearless hinge allows for a larger outer display with smaller bezels. Google states the hinge is two times more durable than the Pixel 9 Pro Fold’s hinge and that the Pixel 10 Pro Fold is capable of 10+ years of folding.

The Pixel 10 Pro Fold has the largest inner display on a foldable at 8 inches, plus a bigger 6.4-inch outer display thanks to those smaller bezels. The 8-inch Super Actual Flex display inside has been re-engineered with resilient ultra-thin glass and dual layers of anti-impact films for added protection against drops.

For the first time, the Pixel 10 Pro Fold has IP68 water and dust resistance. Its battery can last for up to 30 hours and reaches 50% charge in just 30 minutes. Google also touts that both the inner and outer displays get 11% brighter than its predecessor, with a peak brightness of up to 3,000 nits. Plus, the company says the phone is the first foldable with Qi2 charging built in.

With Google’s new Pixelsnap magnetic technology built right into the phone, users can pop the Pixelsnap Charger with Stand onto their phone even when it’s unfolded, or prop the phone up with the Pixelsnap Ring Stand for hands-free streaming.

A new Split Screen feature gives users the option to resize their apps beyond the screen boundaries and adjust which app has more space on the screen with a tap. Google says this feature can be used to drag a photo from Google Photos or a link from Chrome directly into Messages, or to plan a trip by comparing flight details in one app and checking hotel availability in another.

There is also a new game controller functionality on the outer display that lets users enjoy more immersive gaming in titles like Asphalt Legends and Disney Speedstorm. Google has optimized streaming on Netflix and Disney+ for immersive viewing on the go.

For the camera system, a new Instant View feature lets you review your photos side by side on the unfolded inner screen immediately after capturing them. Dual Screen Preview lets everyone see themselves while posing, making it easier to capture the best photo, portrait, or video.

The phone features a 48 MP wide camera, a 5x telephoto lens with Super Res Zoom up to 20x, and an ultrawide lens with Macro Focus. This trio of cameras ensures users are always ready to get the perfect shot, whether using the rear camera for selfies, getting up close, or zooming in from a distance.

Google says the Tensor G5 marks the most significant upgrade to its chip since its debut five years ago. It is built for the latest advancements in machine learning and AI. It delivers double-digit performance increases, including a TPU that is up to 60% more powerful and a CPU that is 34% faster on average to make web browsing and launching apps smoother.

Tensor G5 is also the first chip to run Google’s newest Gemini Nano model, unlocking over 20 generative AI experiences at launch. These include Gemini Live, Magic Cue, and Daily Hub, plus powerful photography features like Add Me, Best Take, and Camera Coach.

The Pixel 10 Pro Fold is available for pre-order starting today and hits shelves on October 9.
