The Pixel Fold takes Google's range of phones into a different format, embracing a folding display for the first time and offering Android on a larger display. There's plenty of quality in this phone and it looks and feels like the $1800 phone that it is. It's a slight departure to the affordable flagship phones that Google has offered in the past and for many that will be a cost that's hard to swallow - but it's only has expensive as Samsung's folding phone. There are clear highlights: the displays are glorious and the camera is superb, offering a range of new opportunities for Pixel users. There's plenty of power from the Google hardware onboard and the performance of this phone is great. The battery life is just about good enough, but the charging rates aren't really competitive anymore. The thing that's impressed me the most about the Pixel Fold is how well the external display works, because it's just like having a compact smartphone in your pocket - and that's not the case with the Galaxy Z Fold.

Great quality design; External display is very usable; Great camera results;

Some software optimisation still to happen; It's expensive; Middling battery life;

Excellent cameras; Great screens; Google apps optimised for big screen; Gap-free design;

The price; Many apps not optimised for tablet mode; Heavy for a phone; No stylus support;

The Google Pixel Fold is an excellent, multidimensional handset that feels equally at home as a beefy smartphone or a pint-sized tablet, and it marries that versatility with strong performance and stellar photography. If you think of the Pixel Fold as two devices in one, the high price almost makes sense.

No-compromises front screen; Excellent construction; Great-looking big screen; Great cameras and photo tricks

Huge bezel around the tablet screen; Takes a little push to lie flat; The price takes some explaining

Excelentes cámaras; Grandes pantallas; Apps de Google optimizadas para pantalla grande; Diseño sin huecos;

Precio; Muchas apps no están optimizadas para el modo tablet; Pesado para ser un teléfono; No es compatible con stylus; No disponible en España o América Latina;

Indisponible dans de nombreux pays dont la France; Le prix; De nombreuses apps ne sont pas optimisées pour le mode tablette; Lourd; Pas de prise en charge du stylet;
