Foldable phones have typically been associated with high prices. However, during Cyber Monday, we are observing a major drop in the prices of some of the best foldable phones. One remarkable example is the Google Pixel Fold. It has reached its lowest price ever, currently available at $1,199 from Amazon, a 35% reduction from the original price of $1799. This is even lower than the price offered by other sites like Best Buy, which is selling the phone for $1349 or $56.25 over 24 months with financing.
The Google Pixel Fold made a strong debut with its unique features. When we reviewed it, we emphasized that it would give Samsung a run for its money. The 5.8-inch front display stands out as its biggest strength, being significantly larger than what was seen on other devices at the time. In contrast, with models like the Galaxy Z Fold 5, the front screen is quite narrow and not very practical. The Pixel Fold also boasts Pixel-grade cameras, including a 48MP main camera, a 10.8MP Ultrawide, and a 10.8MP telephoto with 5X optical zoom. While they may not be on par with the latest phones, they meet the needs of most users.
One of the notable aspects of the Fold series is Google's seamless software implementation. They have introduced an easy-to-use dock that allows users to split the screen and work on multiple apps simultaneously. This makes multitasking a breeze and is more user-friendly compared to Samsung phones. Additionally, Google has optimized many apps to work seamlessly on the 7.6-inch screen, such as Gmail and TikTok.
When the Pixel Fold was first launched, its price was a major concern. It did seem a bit excessive at that time. But with this Cyber Monday deal, it has become a more sensible choice. If you are looking for a great foldable phone without the hefty price tag of the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, the Pixel Fold is a hard one to beat.
