The Pixel 10 Pro Fold is a foldable Android smartphone designed, developed, and marketed by Google as part of the Google Pixel product line. It serves as the successor to the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, which it shares a neraly-identical design with. It features the fifth-generation Google Tensor system-on-chip, Qi2compatibility, and Gemini-powered artificial intelligence features. It comes pre-installed with Android 16 and newly-added Material 3 Expressive UI theming.
History
[edit]The Pixel 10 Pro Fold, was officially announced on August 20, 2025, alongside the Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro , and Pixel 10 Pro XL at the annual Made by Google keynote in Brooklyn, New York. Preorders began the same day, although it took until October 9 for it to release in the United States. It was also joined by the Pixel Watch 4 and Pixel Buds 2a as companion accessories for the lineup.
Specifications
[edit]Design
[edit]Compared to its predecessor, the Pixel 10 Pro Fold's design is nearly identical. Like the rest of the Pixel 10 series, it has flat sides and rounded corners, but is much thinner to allow the phone to fold in half with nearly the same thickness as the slab-style models. As a foldable smartphone, it contains a flexible internal display that is nearly twice the size of the outer display, which can be folded in half to make the phone more pocketable. The cover display has slightly thinner bezels, increasing the screen size from 6.3" to 6.4". It is slightly thicker than the Pixel 9 Pro Fold due to a larger battery.
The Pixel 9 Pro Fold, and first Pixel Fold used only "Obsidian" and "Porcelain" colorways, but the Pixel 10 Pro Fold has 2 different colors that match Pixel 10 Pro & Pro XL: Moonstone and Jade

Hardware
[edit]Both OLED displays of the Pixel 10 Pro Fold have similar specifications to the Pixel 9 Pro Fold. The 8" internal Super Actua Flex Display and external 6.4" Actua Display have a peak brightness of 3000 nits, and a 120Hz refresh rate, although the internal display uses an LTPO display.
The camera configuration remains unchanged from the previous generation, using the same 48MP Wide, 10.5MP Ultrawide, and 10.8MP 5x Telephoto cameras on the rear, and the same identical 10MP selfie cameras on the cover display and internal folding display.
Following the rest of the Pixel 10 series, the Pixel 10 Pro Fold obtains the Tensor G5 custom System-on-Chip (SoC), which is a noticeable upgrade over the Tensor G4 and other previous Tensor processors. Instead of using Samsung Exynos fabrication, Google switched their chip manufacturer to TSMC, and used their state of the art N3E 3nm processing node that many other smartphone chips use, such as the Apple A18 Pro and Snapdragon 8 Elite. Compared to Exynos, it provides better efficiency, performance improvements, and runs at lower temperatures, which often plagued older Pixel models. Although it uses a similar 8-core configuration as the Tensor G4, it slightly outperforms it in single-core and multi-core benchmarks, and significantly outlasts it in terms of battery efficiency. It uses the same Samsung Exynos 5400 modem as the Tensor G4, allowing for Satelite connectivity for contacting emergency services in dead zones.
Unlike the Pixel 10, 10 Pro and 10 Pro XL, the foldable does not fully support the Google-branded "Pixelsnap" technology, with the circular magnetic array not present in the back of the phone due to how thin it is. It requires a Qi2-compatible case with magnets built in to allign accessories such as wallets, phone mounts, stands, and wireless charging pucks and stands. It still contains the wireless charging coil, which supports the latest Qi2 Standard, allowing for wireless charging speeds up to 25 Watts with Qi2-compatible chargers, such as the new Google Pixelsnap Charger released alongside the Pixel 10 Series.
Software
[edit]The Pixel 10 Series comes pre-installed with Android 16, with the recently-announced Material 3 Expressive UI theming also onboard at launch. It is based on the same Material You themeing introduced with the Pixel 6 series and Android 12. It changes font & icon styles, makes text, time, buttons, and icons expand and scale dynamically. It makes animations more fluid and makes haptics more frequent throughout interfaces, and overhauls the nonification bar and Quick Settings panel to allow for more customization.
