Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold UNBOXING

Introduction

The highly anticipated Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold has finally arrived! In this article, we will dive into a detailed unboxing experience of this new foldable device, showcasing its design and features.

Unboxing and First Impressions

As we begin the unboxing process, the sleek silhouette of the Pixel 9 Pro Fold comes into view. Although the name may not thrill everyone, it's time to delve deeper into what this device has to offer.

Upon opening the box, one of the immediate frustrations becomes apparent: the packaging tape isn’t lined up correctly, making it slightly difficult to pull off. After some careful maneuvering, we reveal a box within a box—a bit of a surprise! Pulling the tab, we finally access the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, presented in a stunning porcelain white finish.

The initial setup is quick; the device turns on with ease and can be set down momentarily while we explore the contents of the box. Inside, we find the standard USB-C cable, a user support guide (which feels rather redundant), and a SIM ejector tool—though it's worth noting that the device supports eSIM activation, so the tool is not entirely necessary.

As expected, there's no charger included, but the Pixel 9 Pro Fold supports 45W fast charging and also offers wireless charging capabilities.

Specs Overview

Let’s take a moment to highlight some specifications of the Pixel 9 Pro Fold:

  • Display:
    • 6.3-inch Super AMOLED front display
    • 8-inch OLED main display when opened
  • Camera Setup:
    • Rear Cameras: 48 MP main, 10.8 MP ultra-wide, and 10.5 MP telephoto with 5x optical zoom
    • Selfie Cameras: Dual 10 MP for both front and inner displays
  • Design:
    • Smaller, slimmer bezels provide a larger viewing area compared to last year’s model
    • The device feels noticeably lighter than its predecessor

By comparing the Pixel 9 Pro Fold to the original Pixel Fold, we can see a marked improvement in design and comfort. The previous version had more pronounced bezels and felt heavier in hand, whereas the new model boasts a more modern, square aspect ratio with a more inconspicuous crease thanks to improved hinge technology.

Accessories and Additional Notes

Next, we look at the case that accompanies our device. Although there were brighter color options available at launch, the case is a standard white-on-white design, which lacks contrast.

Attaching the case is fairly straightforward, providing essential protection against superficial damage—an important consideration given the premium price tag of around $ 1,800.

For those interested in further comparisons, stay tuned for our upcoming video where we’ll match the Pixel 9 Pro Fold against the Galaxy Z Fold 6, along with a “buy or skip” analysis.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold is commendable in several respects, particularly with its updated design features and lighter weight. Despite minor packaging inconveniences and a basic case design, the overall experience promises a fascinating dive into the foldable smartphone world.
