The Pixel 10 Pro Fold Is $300 Off Right Now

The Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold (256GB, Unlocked) is currently $1,499 (originally $1,799) on Amazon, and price trackers show this is historically its lowest price. Physically, the phone keeps the same overall size as the earlier 9 Pro Fold, but it runs on the new Tensor G5 processor with Android 16 and, since the phone is unlocked, works across major U.S. carriers like Google Fi, Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T. That flexibility is helpful if you plan to change carriers down the line.

Folded, it measures 6.11 by 3.00 by 0.43 inches, and when opened, it spreads into an eight-inch inner display that feels more like a small tablet. The outer screen is now 6.4 inches with slimmer bezels and significantly brighter output, reaching roughly 3,000 nits, which makes a noticeable difference when using the phone outdoors. Both screens support refresh rates up to 120Hz, so scrolling and animations look smooth. Google also strengthened the aluminum frame and simplified the hinge design by reducing the number of internal parts.

It is also one of the few foldable phones with an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance, something still rare in this category. At 9.1 ounces, though, the phone is heavier than many competing foldables, and the raised camera module on the back causes a bit of wobble when placed on a table.

As for its battery life, it lasted over 13 hours in PCMag’s testing, which puts it ahead of others in its category, including Samsung's Z Fold 7. Charging is capped at 25W wired and 15W Qi2 wireless, and it works with Google’s new Pixelsnap magnetic charging accessories (which our writer called a delightful MagSafe clone).

Google also leans heavily on its AI features, here. The phone runs Gemini tools locally, including Live Voice Translation and Instant View, which briefly shows the photo you just took on the outer screen before you move on to the next shot.

The cameras are another strong point. You get a 48MP main sensor, a 10.5MP ultra-wide, and a 10.8MP telephoto lens with 5x optical zoom, along with Pixel photo tools like Best Take and Add Me. In practice, the phone delivers some of the best camera results currently available on a folding phone, according to this PCMag review.

The Samsung S26 Ultra Is Already $200 Off

The unlocked Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra with 512GB of storage has dropped to $1,299 (originally $1,499), its lowest price so far, according to price-trackers. It is still a premium buy, but it is built for people who want one device to handle everything (for example, storing large photo libraries, recording video often, or using their phone for work tasks).

The phone runs Android 16 and uses the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy processor, so performance is not a concern. Apps open fast, games hold steady frame rates, and multitasking feels smooth even with heavier workloads, notes this PCMag review. The 6.9-inch display is sharp and gets bright enough for outdoor use, though reflections can be noticeable in direct light. It also includes the S Pen, which is useful for quick notes, photo edits, or marking up documents in a way most phones can’t match, though it does not sit completely flush, making it easier to knock loose.

The camera system is the main reason to consider it. It uses a 200MP primary sensor, backed by multiple telephoto and ultrawide lenses, which gives you flexibility for everything from close-ups to long zoom shots. Photos come out detailed and consistent, even in mixed lighting. Video is just as reliable, which makes it a good option if you shoot often and don’t want to carry a separate camera. There are also a few AI tools built in, like automatic edits and smarter search in photos, which save time without getting in the way. That said, the phone’s large camera module causes it to wobble on flat surfaces.

The new Privacy Display is the most noticeable change, and it is both useful and limiting—it makes the screen hard to read from the side, which helps in public places when handling sensitive information, but it also reduces brightness and color when active; and even with it turned off, viewing angles are reportedly weaker than other phones in this price range.
