The Pixel 9 Pro Fold is an impressive phone, as far as foldables go . It does a great job of masquerading as a more typical smartphone while it’s folded, but it opens up into an 8-inch tablet. It’s a handy option to have for certain apps that benefit from larger screens. This usually comes at a pretty high cost, but right now that price is lower than we’ve seen it.

This foldable phone initially retailed for an eye-watering $1,800. Given that you could buy a Pixel phone and a Pixel tablet separately for less than that, it was pretty hard to justify for most people. Now, though, the 256GB model of the Pixel 9 Pro Fold is down to $1,384. That’s still a hefty chunk of change, but it’s considerably more accessible than it used to be.

The 6.3-inch phone (when closed) comes unlocked and can work on Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, and, naturally, Google Fi. The rear camera has a trio of lenses, and in our review they produced some of the best photos you can capture on a smartphone. Google’s been leading the pack for camera tech for a while now, so there’s no surprise there.

It also comes with the usual slew of Google AI features, and includes a year of Gemini Advanced (now called Google AI Pro ) for free. There are quite a few features that make the extra AI tier worth it , so if you were on the fence about paying for generative AI—and there are plenty of situations that might make you skeptical —this can be a good way to give it a shot.
