Pixel 11 Pro Fold: thinner and lighter, but not enough to beat rivals

The Pixel 11 Pro Fold trims weight and thickness but sacrifices battery capacity and charging speed, delivering only modest upgrades over last year. With a smaller 4,750mAh battery, 30W charging, and Tensor G6 concerns, it struggles to justify its $1,899 price against Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Motorola Razr Fold. The review questions Google’s continued foldable strategy and suggests a more ambitious redesign or a temporary skip of a generation might be necessary to compete.

Galaxy Z Fold 8: the Goldilocks foldable—buy or skip?

Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 8 nails a pocketable, tablet-like form factor with strong performance (Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, 12–16GB RAM), a near-creaseless inner display, and handy AI features, making it a compelling all‑around foldable. Yet its cameras are just decent, there’s no S Pen, and at roughly $1,900 it’s a steep ask; if you want the best folding experience and bigger battery/camera, the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra is only about $200 more and arguably worth it.

Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra review: premium foldable power comes with a premium price

Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra is a premium foldable that feels like a pocket tablet—brighter, crease-minimized, and fast, with a 5,000 mAh battery, 45W charging, and a top-tier triple camera led by a 200MP sensor, plus on-device Galaxy AI features—yet its $2,100 price, a protruding camera hump, and uneven AI tools temper its appeal for all but power users.

Z Fold 8 Ultra: Subtle upgrades fail to justify the 'Ultra' badge

Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra adds a faster Snapdragon Elite Gen 5 chip, brighter 3,000‑nit displays, and a bigger 5,000mAh battery with faster charging, but the design is largely unchanged and the upgrades don’t justify the Ultra badge or its $2,100 price, making the base Z Fold 8 the better value for most buyers.

EU labels confirm faster battery wear for Samsung's Galaxy Z8 foldables

The EU’s EPREL energy database reveals the Galaxy Z Flip 8, Z Fold 8, and Z Fold 8 Ultra are rated for 1,200 charging cycles before about 20% capacity loss, down from 2,000 cycles on the Z Flip 7/Z Fold 7. Silicon‑carbon batteries boost capacity but degrade faster, with the Z Flip 8 likely dropping to ~3,440mAh after 1,200 cycles and the Fold 8 Ultra and Fold 8 reducing to ~4,000mAh and ~3,840mAh respectively. Samsung notes this trade‑off and has increased pack sizes (notably in the Ultra) to offset it; the S26 line appears to share the same 1,200‑cycle figure. Overall, these foldables offer higher capacity but shorter longevity than their immediate predecessors.
