Google Pixel 9 Pro Foldable Smartphone Leak Reveals Its Sleek Design, Powerful Features Ahead of Launch

In a highly anticipated announcement, California-based Google is likely to unveil its next-generation foldable device, the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, on August 13. The unveiling is expected to take place at the annual Made by Google event. Ahead of the official reveal, a leaked promotional video shared by Android Headlines has given a taste of what the new device will offer.

The short, 37-second video — originally released in German — gives viewers a close-up look at the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, showcasing its new design and advanced features. The foldable device, available in two color options: black and off-white (possibly named obsidian and porcelain), is shown with an extended foldable screen. Unlike its predecessor, the Pixel Fold, this model folds completely flat, thanks to a redesigned hinge mechanism. Its sleek design is reminiscent of the OnePlus Open.

The Pixel 9 Pro Fold is expected to introduce a number of AI-powered features, including Add Me, Best Take, Circle to Search, Gemini, and Magic Editor. It is expected to have a 6.3-inch outer screen and an 8-inch main inner display, supported by 16GB of RAM.

Under the hood, it will be powered by Google’s new Tensor G4 chip. The device is likely to feature a triple rear camera setup that includes a 48MP primary sensor, a 10.5MP secondary sensor, and a 10.8MP tertiary sensor. There will be a 10MP front-facing camera for selfies and video calling. The Pixel 9 Pro Fold is also expected to be thinner and lighter compared to the original Pixel Fold.

The global launch is scheduled for August 13, and for the Indian market a day later, on August 14.

A report from April revealed that the Pixel 9 series would feature the Exynos Modem 5400, developed by Samsung’s LSI division, according to Gadgets 360. This new modem is expected to provide satellite connectivity and is expected to be up to 50 percent more power efficient than the one found in the Pixel 8. This advancement could significantly improve the Pixel 9 series’ battery life, potentially solving performance issues associated with earlier modems.
