Save $300 on the Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold
C. Scott Brown / Android Authority Are you looking for a foldable phone? The Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold or the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 are your best bets. Today, we're highlighting Google's device, which is currently discounted to $1499, saving you $300. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 is also on sale, but it is slightly more expensive. Keep reading to learn more about that deal. Buy the Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold for $1,499 ($300 off) This offer is available from Amazon. It is a 'limited time deal,' so we're not sure how long the discount will be available. Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold The Fold goes Pro. The Pixel 9 Pro Fold is Google's most impressive foldable to date, offering a 6.3-inch exterior display, 16GB of RAM, and 256GB of internal storage. When you're ready for more, unfold to access the 8-inch interior display. Solid cameras, a decent battery, and top-notch software support round out this monster of a device. See price at Amazon Save $300.00 As already mentioned, the Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold is among the best foldable phones around. It offers a great experience all around, starting with the great performance, thanks to its Google Tensor G4 processor and 16GB of RAM. The chip still runs a bit hot, but it isn't as bad as previous generations, and it can definitely perform. The 16GB of RAM gives it plenty of multitasking power, but the internal display is even more important in this department. Unfold it and you'll meet a large 8.0-inch LTPO OLED screen with a 2,152 x 2,076 resolution. It touts a 120Hz refresh rate. For the times when you don't need the extra screen real estate or prefer saving battery power, there's also the external 6.3-inch screen. C. Scott Brown / Android Authority The handset follows a similar design language to the rest of the Pixel 9 series, save for the folding mechanism. It looks and feels great. It's also made of an aluminum frame and Gorilla Glass Victus 2. And while it has no dust protection, you get an IPX8 rating, so it has excellent protection against liquids. We can confirm that the battery can last a full day without reaching for an outlet despite the smaller 4,650mAh battery. You'll also get that seven-year update promise that Google is so popular for. We wish the camera and charging speeds were as good as the rest of the Pixel 9 series, especially considering the phone's much higher price point. These are still decent, though, and we're sure engineering a foldable phone has its challenges, so some sacrifices had to be made. Extra deal: Save $350 on the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 Thinner, lighter, and more powerful than ever. With a focus on refinement over previous generation Fold phones, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 rocks a 6.3-inch cover screen, a 7.6-inch, 20.9:18, 120Hz AMOLED folding display, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Mobile Platform for Galaxy chipset, a 50MP camera, 12GB of RAM, and up to 1TB of internal storage. See price at Samsung Save $350.00 If you're more of a Samsung fan, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 is also on sale, but for $1,549.99. Is it worth the extra $50.99? Well, it is actually a bigger $350 discount. The Samsung foldable's retail price is higher at $1,899.99, so you're technically catching a bigger discount. Some might also argue that the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 is better. For starters, we know many of you prefer Samsung's designs. This phone is sleek, with an aluminum frame and outstanding aesthetics. It also gets a higher IP48 rating, giving it more protection against solids like dust. Performance won't be an issue with this phone, either. It has a potent Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset. While it has less RAM, at 12GB, that is enough for most users. It is definitely a factor to consider, though. If you're a beastly multitasker, you might want to opt for the Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold instead. Ryan Whitwam / Android Authority The external display is also a bit smaller at 7.6 inches, but it does have a really nice LTPO AMOLED 2X panel with a 2,160 x 1,856 resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. The external display measures 6.3 inches diagonally, so it is the same. Similarly to the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, the camera isn't as impressive, but it is decent. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 also lasts about a full day per charge. And while some complain about the 25W wired charging, that is actually a bit faster than Google's 21W. At least it still gets a seven-year update promise, though. Samsung is actually the only manufacturer that matches Google in this regard. Regardless of which phone you decide to get, you should probably take advantage of this deal sooner rather than later. These deals don't often last very long. You can also take a look at some alternatives in our list of the best foldable phones, if you want to consider other great options.

New Samsung tri-fold leak gives us another hint about how big the 'G Fold' phone might be
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Another Samsung tri-fold leak has emerged The main screen size is said to be 9.9 inches It seems the phone will be launching this year Samsung has confirmed that it's working on a tri-fold foldable phone, and while we don't have too many details about it yet, the latest leak around the handset gives us some more information about the screen size. This tip comes from well-known leaker Digital Chat Station (via Notebookcheck), who says that we're looking at a main screen size of around 9.9 inches. That's a little smaller than the 10.2-inch display sported by the Huawei Mate XT tri-fold. It also lines up rather neatly with previous rumors around this Samsung device: those rumors have predicted a main screen size of 9.96 inches and an outer screen size of 6.49 inches, which also indicates a key difference from the Huawei Mate XT. Whereas the three panels of the Mate XT fold back on each other, leaving a third of the screen visible when it's closed, the Samsung tri-fold is expected to fold inwards – so all of the main display gets covered up when it's shut, and a second display is needed. This same leak suggests that the Samsung tri-fold will be launching this year. It may show up sometime in July, which is when the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 are expected to be unveiled. Other whispers we've heard around this Samsung tri-fold are that it'll offer 2,600 nits of brightness on its screens, which is a very decent figure and matches up with what's already offered by the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6. There's also been talk that the tri-fold might end up being called the Samsung Galaxy G Fold. That's by no means official yet, but that moniker would fit in neatly with the other foldable phones that Samsung already manufactures. It's going to be interesting to see how Samsung prices this phone. Obviously, it's going to have to cost a lot because of the tech, but we're hoping that it's not prohibitively expensive – and that it goes on sale worldwide.

The Samsung Galaxy tri-fold could have these 3 features in common with the Galaxy Z Fold 7
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. The Galaxy G Fold and Galaxy Z Fold 7 could share some features Hinges, speakers, and flatness may match across both handsets We're expecting to see both these phones show up during July We shouldn't have to wait too much longer for the launch of the Samsung tri-fold phone – quite possibly called the Samsung G Fold – and a new leak suggests it's going to borrow significantly from another upcoming handset, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7. According to well-known tipster @PandaFlashPro (via Wccftech), the speakers and the way they're incorporated into the chassis will be the same across both foldables. Presumably, this won't be too different from the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 either. What's more, the hinge mechanism is apparently going to be similar on both handsets, and both should feature a "full-flat body" – we're assuming that means the bumps and creases will be minimal, which is something that's already been rumored. No doubt this is going to save some money for Samsung, because they can use more of the same components across the Galaxy G Fold and the Galaxy Z Fold 7, even though the former is going to have an extra hinge and a third screen panel. Samsung has previously teased a tri-fold handset, so we know it's on the way, but we don't know much else about it, officially. Brightness and wired charging speeds seem set to match the current models, at 2,600 nits and 25W respectively. Unlike the Huawei Mate XT, the Samsung tri-fold is rumored to fold inwards, which means an outer screen is needed as well as the main display. The displays are apparently going to measure 6.49 inches (outer) and 9.96 inches (inner), corner to corner. The Galaxy Z Fold 7 and the Galaxy Z Flip 7 are widely expected to launch sometime in July, and it seems the Galaxy G Fold will be fully unveiled at the same time. However, it may not go on sale until later in the year – and availability could be limited. Whenever it shows up, don't expect it to be cheap. It'll certainly be more expensive than the standard Galaxy Z Fold model, and as our Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 review will tell you, that phone launched at a starting price of $1,899.99 / £1,799 / AU$2,749. Samsung drops another big hint about its tri-fold These are the best foldables you can buy Expect a large screen on the upcoming Galaxy tri-fold

Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Flip 7 are expected to debut at the Samsung Event in Q3 of this month - What's coming?
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 & Flip 7 launch timeline: The excitement is growing as Samsung prepares to reveal its upcoming foldable devices. The most recent reports indicate that the following models will push the boundaries of innovation, building on the success of the Galaxy Z Fold and Galaxy Z Flip series. We are sure that you must be excitedly anticipating the launch of the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7 due to Samsung's dedication to pushing the limits of smartphone technology. In this post, we'll look at the most recent details on these eagerly awaited gadgets, including when they should be released and what Samsung has in store for its devoted fans. Let's get started and learn more. Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 & Flip 7 expected launch timeline Samsung is organizing an event in New York City in "early July" to introduce the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Flip 7, along with possibly some additional products, following two years of international debuts and continuing to advance the calendar. Samsung is making changes for the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Flip 7 event later this year, according to a report from The JoongAng. The launch is scheduled for "early July," and the corporation is again pushing the event date. The second week of the month, July 10, is when Samsung's foldables were first released last year, according to this story. The event is anticipated to feature several new items in addition to the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Flip 7, including: Samsung's long-rumored Android XR headset is a new Galaxy Watch. Teasers for a less expensive foldable alternative, the Galaxy Z Flip FE. An overview of the futuristic trifold foldable gadget has been in the works for several years. Must Read: Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 specifications leaked: Expected to launch with 8-inch inner screen a 6.5-inch cover display, One UI 8, and more Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 expected specification First Geekbench scores of the Galaxy Z Fold7• Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy• 12gb ram• Android 16 Anthony (@TheGalox_), an X (formerly Twitter) user, revealed information on the alleged Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7, claiming that it will have a new 200-megapixel primary camera. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 model that the business now sells has a 50-megapixel camera. Additionally, it is rumored to have an improved under-display camera. Instead of using the 7.6-inch and 6.3-inch screens found on the Galaxy Z Fold 6, Samsung might outfit the Galaxy Z Fold 7 with an 8-inch inner screen and a 6.5-inch cover display. According to the tipster, the next smartphone will have a more robust display with "new layers" and a reduced crease on the inner screen. According to reports, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 is 4.5 mm thick when unfurled, making it maybe 1.1 mm thinner than its predecessor. Additionally, according to the leaker, the phone will have better water and dust protection (the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 is rated IP48). Along with a bigger vapor chamber for improved thermal management, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 will be powered by the same Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy SoC that debuted on the Galaxy S25 series of smartphones. According to reports, the phone also has a new vibration motor and better speakers. Samsung Galaxy Flip 7 expected specifications A recent report claims that the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset—especially the specially designed "for Galaxy" edition, an overclocked variant of the standard chip—will power the next Galaxy Z Flip 7. On X (previously Twitter), a tipster named @PandaFlashPro stated that the Galaxy Z Flip 7 had already passed all internal tests, including network performance testing, using this CPU. Samsung could have chosen to use its own Exynos 2500 processor, which is a more economical option, but production issues might be restricting the supply of those chips. That might not be the only obstacle since Samsung finally decided to use Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite. The next Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 is anticipated to have larger screens than its predecessor. The primary foldable display will be 6.8 inches, and the exterior cover screen is predicted to be 3.6 inches. These are slight improvements over the 3.4-inch and 6.7-inch panels on the Galaxy Z Flip 6. The phone's overall measurements have also been increased; it is now said to measure 166.6 x 75.2 x 6.9 mm, with a thickness of 9.1 mm when the camera module is considered. Samsung will continue using a dual-camera setup consisting of a 12-megapixel ultra-wide lens and a 50-megapixel primary sensor. Even though these specifications seem familiar, the sensors are updated versions that provide better imaging capabilities. Regarding memory and storage, the Galaxy Z Flip 7 will still come with 12GB of RAM in addition to 256GB and 512GB of storage. According to multiple sources, features like the inner display's crease would be far less evident than in the previous generation, even though some oddities of the prior design might still exist.

Apple Foldable iPhone May Have Face ID Embedded in the Screen
Apple has long been rumored to be working on a foldable iPhone and a new leak this week suggests it'll have another feature that has yet to appear in any Apple phone: a camera embedded under the screen for Face ID. The latest rumor offers possible dimensions for the anticipated iPhone Fold and indications that it could have under-screen camera technology. Leaker Digital Chat Station, as reported earlier by 9to5Mac, suggested a 7.76-inch inner screen with a 2,713x1,920-pixel resolution and a 5.49-inch outer screen with a 2,088x1,422-pixel resolution. Previous rumors have estimated a potential 2026 or 2027 release for an iPhone that folds like a book. A 2027 release would tie into the iPhone's 20th anniversary. The dimensions in this leak align with those in this previous rumor, with an expected price tag between $2,000 and $2,500. Rumors have been split on which format of foldable Apple is releasing or even releasing first. This report suggests a book-style foldable is coming akin to the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6, while older ones suggested Apple was working on a clamshell foldable like the Motorola Razr. Read more: Why Apple Needs to Launch the Foldable iPhone Flip This Year Apple remains the only major smartphone maker not offering a folding phone. Challenges with the hinge and the display screen have reportedly held up the development. Apple has also reportedly been working on a giant folding iPad. That product is rumored to open to the size of two iPad Pros and could be eyed for a 2028 debut. If Apple does move forward with a folding iPhone, CNET's Andrew Lanxon has some suggestions, namely that the software needs to take advantage of the folding ability and that the company should offer high-end models alongside more affordable options. "A foldable iPhone needs to be more than just a regular iPhone with a screen that can bend," Lanxon wrote last month.
