Four years after Samsung released the world’s first foldable phone, it’s finally time for Google’s inaugural attempt at this genre. The Pixel Fold is a folder – as opposed to a clamshell flipper – which is designed to compete with the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold.
Put simply, this means the hinge is vertical and that the phone opens like a book to form a mini-tablet. It can either act as two side-by-side displays or a single humongous screen. This is 7.6in diagonally and almost square, which makes it look far bigger than it sounds. There’s also an outer display on the opposite side to the one that holds the camera array.
