Unfold the Pixel 9 Pro Fold and it presents the largest screen of any foldable, too, a massive 8-inch panel that's a square ratio (the original was 6:5). This is like the IMAX of foldable phone screens – and while a square certainly won't work for everything you consume, the sheer scale and reduced bezels makes for a much better experience.

Courtesy of iFixit, a new teardown video of the Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold reveals what the repairability advocate organization’s Shahram Mokhtari says is “the most exciting foldable we’ve seen on the iFixit teardown table.”

GOOGLE has released its second foldable smartphone and it may well be my favourite yet. The foldable market is still pretty slim with only a handful around from Google itself, as well as Samsung

I used the Pixel 9 Pro Fold during a stay in Germany, where I had fun shooting photos of cars. Google's new folding phone turned out to be amazing at it.

The Pixel 9 is the only non-Pro phone in the 9 series at this point, which, as best I can tell, means it has 12GB of RAM instead of 16GB and doesn’t have a telephoto lens. It’s smaller than the aptly named Pixel 9 Pro XL, the same size and shape as the regular Pixel 9 Pro, and it doesn’t fold in half like the other 9 Pro does.

Foldables, with their soft internal screens and vulnerable hinge, don’t have the best reputation when it comes to durability. However, they have gotten significantly better since Samsung was forced to delay the release of the original Galaxy Fold due to review units breaking .

After conducting a teardown of the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, the iFixit team walked away impressed by the device's repairability.

I want to ditch my iPhone and move to Android so badly, yet every time I verge on making the move, Apple pulls me back in. Last year, I used a Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra for a week and really enjoyed it.

Furthermore, the Pixel 9 Pro Fold features an IPX8 rating, which means it lacks resistance to certain dust particles and sand. While immensely appealing, foldable smartphones are still out of reach for most people,

The hinge still isn’t the weakest part of Pixel 9 Pro Fold in a durability and bend test, as well as teardown, from
