Google unveiled four new Pixel 9 smartphones earlier this week – the Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, Pixel 9 Pro XL, and Pixel 9 Pro Fold. The non-foldable Pro models come with an improved version of the Video Boost feature introduced in the Pixel 8 series last year, and if you thought the Pixel 9 Pro Fold – which is the most expensive in the range – had it too, then you’re in for a disappointment, as it doesn’t have all of the Video Boost features.
The non-foldable Pixel 9 Pro comes with Video Boost, which offers AI-enabled 8K upscaling for 4K videos and Super Res Zoom Video for recording 20x lossless video. While the Pixel 9 Pro Fold offers HDR Plus video, Night Sight video, and improved processing speeds for Video Boost videos, it does not offer 8K upscaling and Super Res Zoom.
With a base price of $1,799, which is $800 more than the Pixel 9 Pro and $700 more than the Pixel 9 Pro XL, you might expect the Pixel 9 Pro Fold to have all the camera features that its non-foldable Pro counterparts have, but that’s not the case. On the other hand, it’s also worth noting that the Fold’s camera hardware is different than the non-foldable Pros, so if you want a Pixel with the best camera features Google has to offer, you might want to consider getting the Pixel 9 Pro or Pixel 9 Pro XL.
