The Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro Fold are now available in India, and you won't believe what they cost


The latest Pixels are reasonably priced (when viewed next to their predecessors), but the Pixel 9 Pro Fold has an absurd premium.

Google also introduced the Pixel 9 Pro Fold in the country, and that will set you back ₹1,72,999 ($2,061). (Image credit: Nick Sutrich / Android Central)The Pixel 9 Pro XL, meanwhile, debuts at ₹1,24,999 ($1,489) for the 16GB/256GB model, and that's on par with what the Galaxy S24 Ultra costs in the country. The Pixel 9 Pro Fold is unlikely to find any takers; foldables are still a niche, and while Chinese manufacturers are making inroads in this category, I can't see anyone shelling out more than the Galaxy Z Fold 6 to pick up what Google is offering.
