The teaser image that Google posted on X (formerly Twitter) offers a glimpse at the Pixel 9 Pro Fold’s design. A sizable square module with two oval-shaped camera sensors and an LED flash is located on the back panel.
A more elegant design is suggested by the cover screen’s seeming small narrower width than its predecessor. The teaser image also features curved edges on the cover screen, a noticeable hinge in the middle, and a punch-hole cutout for the selfie camera positioned in the center.
Google’s teaser graphic also includes the phrase “Oh Hi, AI,” which suggests that Google’s Gemini AI will be used to power the foldable’s integration of AI functions.

The original Pixel Fold, which had a 7.6-inch OLED display with a 6:5 aspect ratio and a 5.8-inch cover screen, is anticipated to be improved upon by the Pixel 9 Pro Fold.
According to rumors, the new model will include a 6.29-inch cover display in addition to an even larger 8.02-inch foldable screen. This suggests a change in favor of larger, possibly more immersive screens.
Deep integration between the Pixel 9 Pro Fold and Google’s AI program Gemini is one of its most fascinating features.
Through the provision of smarter, more user-friendly features, this AI integration promises to improve the user experience.
The Pixel 9 Pro Fold will become a cutting-edge device in the foldable market thanks to the Gemini AI, which will also enhance photographic skills and provide sophisticated voice and gesture commands.
Furthermore, it is anticipated that the forthcoming Pixel Camera app—which will launch alongside the Pixel 9 series—will enable 8K video capture at 30 frames per second. Although it’s unclear which models will be able to use this function at launch, it shows how committed Google is to advancing smartphone photography and filmmaking.
Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold – Pricing Details
For those who don’t know, the original Pixel Fold was priced prohibitively high at $1799 (about Rs 150,500) for the 256GB model, which prevented it from entering the Indian market.
Nonetheless, Google is confident in launching its high-end foldable here as the Indian market develops and the need for foldable phones increases. Despite this assurance, it is anticipated that the Pixel 9 Pro Fold’s high-end features and specifications will translate into a price between Rs 1.6 lakhs and Rs 1.8 lakhs.
