How much does the Pixel Fold cost?

The Google Pixel Fold launched at $1,799 in the US, putting it right on par with the starting price of Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 5. And the price jumps up to $1,919 if you want a 512GB model with double the storage. 

What colors does the Pixel Fold come in?

The Pixel Fold comes in just two colors: white and black. That’s a slimmed-down palette compared with previous Pixel-branded phones. 

Best Pixel Fold deals

Right now you can score a Pixel Fold from Google directly for $1,449 — a $350 discount. Plus, you can save up to $580 with an eligible trade-in — with the iPhone 14 lineup bringing you the biggest discount. However, Google also accepts phones from Samsung, LG, Motorola and others.

AT&T customers can pick up the Google Pixel Fold for as little as $25 per month. All you need to do to get this discount is have or switch to an eligible unlimited plan, and purchase this device on an installment plan. The discount is then applied as bill credits over a 36-month period, and you’ll have to pay the remaining balance if you cancel service before then.

AT&T also has its own trade-in program where you can save even more in exchange for your old phone from Apple, Google, Samsung and other brands, but it’s not required to qualify for this deal.

Verizon customers adding a new line of service and existing customers who qualify for an upgrade can both save up to $1,000 on the Pixel Fold with an eligible trade-in. Plus, Verizon is offering $400 off a Google Pixel Watch 2 with your purchase of the Pixel Fold. Just note that you’ll need a new line of service for that device to get the discount. Plus, new customers who switch their existing number over from another carrier will get a free $200 Verizon gift card.

T-Mobile customers who have or switch to a Go5G Plus or Next plan can save up to $1,000 on the Pixel Fold when adding a new line or with an eligible trade-in. Though it’s worth noting that the obsidian variant of the 256GB model is the only configuration available. The discount is applied via bill credits over 24 months. 

Amazon is offering the Pixel Fold at the same price as the Google Store, dropping the price to $1,449. And you can save a total of $430 when you bundle the phone with a pair of noise-canceling Google Pixel Buds Pro earbuds. They’re one of our overall favorite pairs of earbuds on the market, and this deal scores you a pair with the Pixel Fold for just $1,569 instead of the usual $1,999 price. 

Amazon also has its own trade-in program where you can earn up to $401 off in exchange for your old phone from Apple, Google, Samsung and other brands. 

Best Buy is also offering the unlocked 256GB model of the Pixel Fold for $1,449 right now, price-matching the Google Store. Plus, Best Buy is sweetening the deal with bonuses like a one-month membership to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and three months of 100GB of Google One cloud storage for new subscribers. 

Best Buy also has its own trade-in program, where you can save even more in exchange for your old phone from Apple, Google, Samsung and other brands. Though the absolute latest models can score you as much as $850, you’re more likely to get between $300 to $400, depending on the age, condition and brand of your phone.
