Summary
$1,899 buys a markedly improved Pixel 11 Pro Fold, with the review calling it a real Samsung rival after last year's bulkier model fell short.
Google cut folded thickness to 10.1mm from 10.8mm, unfolded thickness to 5.0mm from 5.2mm, and weight to 239g from 258g, making the phone notably easier to hold.
The biggest tradeoff is price: the new model costs $400 more than the Pixel 10 Pro Fold's $1,499 launch price, a jump the review says outstrips the upgrades.
Camera performance is the clearest reason to choose it over Samsung's Z Fold 8 Ultra, with stronger 30x zoom results and a useful new Magic Capture AI photo tool.
Samsung still leads on thinness and overall polish, but Google has narrowed the foldable gap with brighter 3,600-nit displays, solid battery life near 24 hours, and dependable Tensor G6 performance.
