Why Wait for the Pixel 10 Pro Fold When You Can Grab the Pixel 9 Pro Fold for $700 Off?

I don't know about you, but I'm eagerly awaiting news of Google's new Pixel 10 phones today at its Made by Google event, including the expected Pixel 10 Pro Fold. But while we all wait, there are still plenty of good deals to be had on what's about to be the previous generation of Pixel phones. They're still excellent devices, too, so if you're looking to get a new phone while saving some money, this could be the best way to do that.

Best Buy has a deal available right now that'll get you the excellent Pixel 9 Pro Fold for a new-low price of just $1,099. This is the lowest I've ever seen the device with no strings attached. If you are looking to sign up with a carrier too though, you can save an extra $100 on it by doing so as you buy it.

In our review of the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, mobile expert Lisa Eadicicco said the device is "more polished and practical" in terms of design than its predecessor, feeling like "a big leap" forward. As well as the improved physical form, she praised its larger screens and the substantial seven-year software update commitment Google has made for this model. One major issue was the price, but this massive $700 discount goes a long way toward addressing that.

This 2024 foldable has a durable 6.3-inch Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 cover screen and a stunning 8-inch Super Actua Flex interior display. You can even run two apps side-by-side, making it great for multitasking. On the inside, the basic model comes with 256GB of storage and 16GB of RAM, and is equipped with Google's advanced G4 Tensor chip. All of this in a phone that weighs in at just 9.1 ounces and is just 0.2 inches thick when open (or 0.4 inches when closed).

Why this deal matters

Google's foldable phone is the most expensive in the lineup, meaning tech fans have to pay a premium to get one. With this deal, the price is cut substantially, dropping it down to a new record-low. The price reduction here makes this one of the best Google Pixel deals around for anyone not looking to trade an old phone in or get a new line. It's a solid discount.

Just don't forget that we're expecting Google to release the Pixel 10 Pro Fold alongside its other devices at an event today.
