Google Pixel Fold Review: A Folding Phone That Still Has Some Wrinkles to Work Out
Even though Google touts this as the “thinnest foldable phone,” the Pixel Fold feels like a hefty slab rather than a reliable writing slate. That’s due more to its weight than its footprint. It weighs 10 ounces, and without a case, it’s .5 inches thick. That’s smaller than the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold4, but with a case — and you should absolutely buy a case if you want the screen to have any hope of surviving a tumble — the phone still feels like a brick in the hand.
Notably, the screen is slightly softer than the exterior screen, though I haven’t had any issues with scratches in my days of use. It’s got Gorilla Glass Victus covers on its screens, and in my few days with it, I didn’t experience any bubbling or scratches . We’ll certainly dive into how it works after a few weeks or months of use, but for now, the Pixel Fold still feels solid.Having two apps open at once is rather handy, and the Fold’s size makes running each instance comfortable.
Google is promising that there will be even more features that make use of all those screens. The upcoming release of Android 14 will also bring a Live Interpreter Mode. That app would make use of both the exterior and inner screens, and after a user reads or types in one language on the inside, the translation should be readable on the outside. Tabletop Mode should also receive new UI optimizations that let you pause and scroll to different parts of the video on the bottom screen.
