While the Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold hasn’t shipped yet, but one lucky person has already gotten their hands on one in Obsidian and has thankfully unboxed it on Reddit for the world to see.
The wrinkle out of the box seems significantly improved compared to the original Pixel fold‘s, while still very much present. The Pixel 9 Pro Fold also comes unfolded in the box, unlike its predecessor which was folded.
Incidentally, the same Reddit user also posted an extensive photoshoot comparing Google’s new foldable smartphone to Google’s old foldable smartphone, side by side. The different aspect ratio of the new device is very apparent, as is the larger size.

The change also makes the Pixel 9 Pro Fold look more like a generic foldable smartphone, and less unique than its predecessor. But there should be a positive side to this, namely that apps will have less trouble loading on the foldable screen.
