Pixel 10 Pro Fold Leak: Can Google Finally Crack the Foldable Phone Market?
Google continues to strive to establish a strong presence in the mobile market, with only 4.5% of Americans using a Google smartphone as their primary device. The tech giant is pinning its hopes on the upcoming Pixel 10 Pro Fold to make a bigger impact than its predecessors, even though smartphone sales do not drive its annual revenue.
Early Glimpse into Pixel 10 Pro Fold
While official details are scarce, a recent leak has provided a sneak peek into Google’s next foldable flagship, the successor to the Pixel 9 Pro Fold. The leak unveiled digital renders of the Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold, showcasing a design that closely resembles its predecessor, hinting at a focus on internal upgrades and performance over cosmetic changes.
Features and Pricing
The leaked images reveal that the Pixel 10 Pro Fold maintains a similar form factor to the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, including a triple rear camera setup. However, one notable change is the relocation of the SIM card slot to the upper edge of the device. 
Sources suggest that Google might introduce the Pixel 10 Pro Fold at a lower price point than its predecessor, following its trend of aggressive pricing strategies and post-launch discounts on Pixel devices.
Release Details
An earlier leak from September 2024 revealed the internal codename of the Pixel 10 Pro Fold as “Rango” and hinted at a potential launch in fall 2025. While not officially confirmed, the device is expected to compete with Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 7, set to be unveiled in July 2025.
Industry analysts predict a retail price range of $1,899 to $2,199 for the Galaxy Z Fold 7, positioning it as a direct competitor to Google’s Pixel 10 Pro Fold. With both devices vying for a share of the foldable phone market, consumers can anticipate an exciting battle between these tech giants.
