Google’s Pixel 11 Pro Fold is a $1,899 foldable phone with a Tensor G6 chip, 16GB of RAM, 256GB of starting storage, IP68 dust and water resistance, a triple rear-camera system, and 25W Qi2 magnetic wireless charging. It costs $100 more than the Pixel 10 Pro Fold, while retaining the same starting storage. The phone is 0.7mm thinner and 19g lighter than its predecessor, has OLED displays rated at up to 3,600 nits, and uses a larger 48-megapixel main-camera sensor. Its 4,806mAh battery routinely lasts a full day, according to testing. Google’s new Android 17 Bubbles feature lets apps run in floating, minimizable windows, with a dedicated dock on the unfolded display. Camera software additions include Camera Looks, Magic Capture, and Creator Suite tools such as an onscreen teleprompter and project-folder saving. Rambler converts extended dictated speech into concise summaries, while Proactive Assistance is unavailable in the UK and was difficult for US reviewers to trigger reliably. The Pixel 11 Pro Fold remains thicker and heavier than newer Samsung foldables, and its display crease is conspicuous. HiLight uses the camera flash as a multicolor Gemini indicator and a single-color alert for favorite callers, but it works only when the phone is face-down with its display off; message-alert support is planned for later. Google says its glass-fiber composite back is three times more durable and nearly impossible to crack.
