GOOGLE PIXEL FOLD IS A POWERFUL DEVICE WITH AN ENTERTAINMENT-FRIENDLY INNER SCREEN

The Google Pixel Fold is expensive, and often great. But it’s also every bit the first-generation product that it is, and it’s not ready to take the foldable fight to Samsung just yet. To Google’s credit, the Pixel Fold is a much more approachable device than the Z Fold 4. The Pixel places guardrails around what you can and can’t do, like limiting multitasking on the inner screen to two apps. Google managed to make a folding phone that closes flat like a book with no visible gap between the halves – an impressive accomplishment that Samsung hasn’t figured out just yet. It’s nice like a sturdy piece of hardware. The hinge is fairly stiff and supports the phone in any configuration up to 180 degrees. In fact, when you open it up, there’s kind of a “stop” just short of 180, and you have to give it a little extra push to open it all the way. The screens themselves are nice enough: the outer is a 5.8-inch 1080p 120Hz panel, and the inner display is a 7.6-inch diagonal 2208 x 1840 OLED – also with a 120Hz top refresh rate.
