Key facts
- The Pixel 11 Pro Fold doesn’t look different from the 10 Pro Fold, but Google has shaved off a fraction of a millimeter and 19 grams
- The Google Pixel 11 Pro Fold is a predictably iterative improvement over last year’s foldable, with slight upgrades to performance and the camera, but it comes with an unwelcome $100 price bump
- Google is good at elevating its devices beyond the spec sheet, but the 11 Pro Fold is perilously close to the Pixel 11 on paper, a phone that’s less than half its price
- The Pixel 11 Pro Fold scores an impressive IP68 rating for water and dust resistance
Summary
The Google Pixel 11 Pro Fold is a predictably iterative improvement over last year’s foldable, with slight upgrades to performance and the camera, but it comes with an unwelcome $100 price bump. Google is good at elevating its devices beyond the spec sheet, but the 11 Pro Fold is perilously close to the Pixel 11 on paper, a phone that’s less than half its price. The Pixel 11 Pro Fold doesn’t look different from the 10 Pro Fold, but Google has shaved off a fraction of a millimeter and 19 grams. The double-camera module has had a makeover, so it looks less chunky, and the back is matte-textured glass that feels lovely.
