This was the best presenter from Google I/O.

[KyurHeart]

The fact that you can see yourself while using the best camera!!!! This is a content creation machine! I'm so excited

[therinwhitten]

I am not even into folds but I see alot of passion in the dev team. Well Done!

[soma_donat]

I am really impressed. This device looks really clean. What I love about it is that it has a little desktop style to it. It's too expensive for me but I think it would worth the price (based on what I've seen).

I’m so excited to see the Pixel Fold released. I am just as excited to see the improvements year after year.

[ElectricCmpany]

Pixel Fold will be 🔥. Perfect cover screen size, a tablet that fits in your pocket, using main cameras for selfies, and all with the Pixel software.

[jonabirdd]

Basically Samsung fold but with a different (less awkward) aspect ratio on the screens. +1 for me.

Biggest question I have... how will the battery be in a real world setting? Can't decide if i want to trade my zfold 3 for one, or wait until the Fold 5....

[zubairanapiniabdullahi]

I think Google accounts is best I love Google I love Google accounts thanks 4:40

[danagoyette]

But does it support video out over USB-C? If not, it's an absurdly expensive device to omit that feature from just to save a few pennies. (Or is it to force people to buy Chromecast?)

Patiently waiting for the Pixel 8 Pro..

[Tyler_ThaTruth]

man drop that pixel 8 pro and that battery better be on the s23/pro max level too

[shadowfallenable]

The true champions of Android devices are BACK on top! 👏 👏

Looking at this with my Pixel 7 Pro. This is the best part of Google I/O for me!! Question, does the Fold support more than 2 apps in split screen mode? So one more floating app?? This would be a lot better than only 2 apps!!

Dave, great presentation. Loved the humor in between, it keeps the audience engaged.❤

[CodeGrn]

went from nexus 4 ...pixel 2xl...pixel 6...waiting for pixel fold 2!
second generation is going to be fantastic...first generation demo looks so promising. but price point.
second generation will probably be in the $1200s. finger crossed*

[alexanderdumitru]

So sad they're not selling this in Canada

[ToxicStatistic]

I cannot wait for mine to come in! I have been waiting for this for years now.

The phone is too thin. Im curious to know how the Battery life is and how many folds until it breaks and if so then is the Phine covered under Warranty? These things are very Important before a Foldable phone Lover makes a Purchase.
