As revealed in the Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold renders that we exclusively revealed in March, the foldable is getting a new hinge this year. The most obvious change here is going to be how big the hinge is, or rather, how small it is. The new hinge on the Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold is thinner, which will make it feel more comfortable in the hand and make the overall foldable thinner as well.
This is what is going to allow for Google to increase the outer display screen size, in roughly the same physical size as the Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold. Making the hinge smaller and stretching the bezel out will increase the cover display from 6.3 inches to 6.4 inches. Which actually makes it larger than the Google Pixel 10 and Pixel 10 Pro, versus the Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, and Pixel 9 Pro Fold all having the same size display.
Google’s Pixel 10 Pro Fold could be first with IP68 water and dust resistance
This is also going to be the first foldable released with an IP68 rating. Samsung’s current foldables are IP48; however, rumors are pointing to the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 being IP68 when it debuts next month. Even the OPPO Find N5 is only IPX8 and IPX9, meaning it doesn’t stand a chance against dirt.
Google, being one of the first to bring IP68 ingress protection to their foldable, is actually a fairly big deal. Most foldables are not protected against dust (except for Samsung’s and Motorola’s foldables, which are only IP48). The “6” in IP68 stands for dust protection, and this is the highest level, making the device fully dust-tight. While the “8” stands for water resistance, it means that the device can be immersed in up to one meter of water for 30 minutes.
The Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold release date is set for August 28, with the announcement on August 20 alongside the rest of the Google Pixel 10 series.
