Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold News

Business Business Latest News,Business Business Headlines

This is a solid entry into the, well, fold but it is far from cheap

When the original Fold launched last year, Ireland was left off the official list of countries in which it would debut. That largely left the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold to capitalise on the niche market for foldable phones here, at least for consumers who want to get their hands on one relatively easily.

The inner display is Google’s Super Actua Flex display, which has 373 pixels per inch, a refresh rate of 1-250Hz on the OLED display, with a peak brightness of 2700 nits. The external OLED display offers 422 pixels per inch, with 60-120Hz refresh rate to ensure that scrolling and action on screen is smooth.

The 9 Pro Fold also has Google’s Add Me technology, which allows you to take a group photo, and add yourself in with a second shot. The phone will then process them into a single image, and you get your perfect group shot.There is a lot here that you can get in the regular Pixel 9 Pro a lot cheaper. However, there are some additions to the Fold that although firmly in the “nice to have” category, are useful enough to make the Fold feel like a better phone.

The design of the Fold lends itself easily to multitasking, allowing you to work on two apps easily side by side. The Samsung Z Fold 6 has this particular feature nailed down, allowing you to drop several apps side by side in different-sized windows. The camera is excellent, and delivers great video and still images. Plus the AI tools Google has developed work well on the larger screen.
