Even Google's foldable is thinner, better-specced than Z Fold 6

Pixel 9 Pro Fold is thinner, brighter, and better-specced than Galaxy Z Fold 6

The design and specifications of the Pixel 9 Pro Fold have leaked before its launch. Per the leaked information, the Pixel 9 Pro Fold appears thinner and better-specced than the Galaxy Z Fold 6. The next-generation foldable Pixel is reportedly 10.5mm thin (dimensions: 155.2 x 77.1 x 10.5mm) when closed. That is 1.6mm thinner than the Galaxy Z Fold 6.

It is heavier than the Galaxy Z Fold 6, though, at 257g. Samsung's new foldable weighs 239g, which is almost as light as the Galaxy S24 Ultra (232g).

The Pixel 9 Pro Fold's inner screen reportedly measures 8 inches diagonally, making it slightly bigger than the Galaxy Z Fold 6's. Moreover, the screen is said to reach peak brightness of up to 2,700 nits, 100 nits brighter than the Galaxy Z Fold 6. The Pixel's cover screen is reportedly 6.3 inches diagonally, but it is wider with an aspect ratio of 20:9 as opposed to the Galaxy Z Fold 6's 22:9 aspect ratio.

The Pixel 9 Pro Fold seems to have a 4,650mAh battery. That's 250mAh bigger than the Galaxy Z Fold 6's battery.

The story continues after the video.

According to another leak, the Pixel 9 Pro Fold has the Tensor G4 processor and 16GB RAM. The Pixel has more RAM than Samsung's foldable.

It has a 48MP primary camera, a 10.5MP ultrawide camera, a 10.8MP telephoto camera with 5x optical zoom, and two 10MP selfie cameras (one on the cover screen and another on the inner screen). The telephoto camera has a higher zoom than the one on the Galaxy Z Fold 6

Despite being thinner, the Pixel 9 Pro Fold seems to be better equipped than the Galaxy Z Fold 6. Of course, it has the advantage of having a bigger screen, which means Google has more width to fit a bigger battery and a bigger telephoto lens. However, it could have a weaker processor, as Tensor chips have been historically slower and less efficient than their Exynos and Snapdragon counterparts.

Hopefully, Samsung will bring a thinner and better-specced foldable phone with the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Slim later this year.
