With Launch Expected For August, The New Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold Bets On A Thinner Design, Water Resistance, And A Powerful Processor To Challenge Samsung In The Growing Foldable Market.
The anticipation surrounding Google’s next foldable smartphone is growing, and the latest leaks indicate that the Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold will arrive with the mission of fixing the shortcomings of its predecessors and establishing itself as a strong competitor in the premium segment. Rumors suggest a significant evolution in design, performance, and especially in integration with artificial intelligence.
Expected to be announced at the “Made by Google” event in August 2025, the new foldable from the tech giant is directly targeting Samsung’s dominance. However, for Brazilian consumers, the excitement over the cutting-edge specifications comes with a major concern: the lack of an official launch in the country is likely to keep the price of the Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold at an extremely high level, making it a luxury item for a few.
The Heart Of The Device: New Tensor G5 Chip And Top Performance

The biggest evolution of the Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold is expected to be inside. For the first time, Google is expected to leave Samsung behind and produce its new chip, the Tensor G5, at TSMC’s factory, using the modern 3-nanometer process.

After decades of failed attempts, Brazil is once again looking to space with an orbital rocket measuring 12 meters, weighing 12 tons, costing R$ 189 million, and scheduled for launch in 2026, in a new race to finally achieve autonomous access to orbit.

The Earth will plunge into a few minutes of darkness in broad daylight in August 2026, when a total solar eclipse transforms the sky into one of the most impressive astronomical phenomena in recent years.

How the terraforming of Mars can transform the planet: artificial aerosols can increase the temperature by up to 35°C in 15 years, creating conditions for liquid water.

Scientists drilled nearly 8,000 meters into the ocean floor above the fault that caused the 2011 tsunami in Japan and discovered that a layer of clay 130 million years old was responsible for making the wave much worse than any model had predicted.
What does this mean? An expected performance boost of about 25% over the previous generation and, most importantly, a much greater energy efficiency. The set, which is expected to include 16 GB of RAM and UFS 4.0 storage, promises to run Android 16 with extreme fluidity and enhance Gemini’s AI capabilities.
Design And Durability: Thinner And Now With IP68 Protection
Addressing criticisms of previous models, Google seems to have focused on refining the design. Leaks suggest a device that is noticeably thinner and lighter, with a new hinge tested to withstand up to 300,000 opening cycles.
The big news, however, is the awaited IP68 certification, which guarantees resistance against dust and submersion in water. This is the first time a foldable from the Pixel line receives this protection, a crucial feature for a high-cost device.
Screens And Cameras: Intense Brightness And Powerful Zoom
The Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold is expected to come equipped with two high-quality OLED screens, both with a 120Hz refresh rate and an impressive peak brightness of 3,000 nits, perfect for use under strong sunlight.
External Screen: 6.4 inches.
Internal Screen: 8 inches.
In the camera system, the focus is on a versatile triple setup:
Main Sensor: 48 MP with optical stabilization (OIS).
Ultrawide Sensor: 10.5 MP.
Telephoto Sensor: 10.8 MP with 5x optical zoom.
The Brazilian Challenge: Price And Availability

Here is the most sensitive point for consumers in Brazil. With an estimated launch price of US$ 1,799 (about R$ 9,900 in direct conversion), the Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold is already an expensive device.
However, since Google does not officially sell its phones in the country, it will arrive here through importers. With the addition of import taxes, fees, and the markup of sellers, the final price for the Brazilian consumer can easily exceed the R$ 15,000 threshold, a value that places it in a very restricted niche and makes it a distant dream for most brand fans.
And you, what do you think of the rumors about the Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold? Do you believe that artificial intelligence and the new design justify the high price for the Brazilian market? Share your opinion in the comments!
