Almost two months after it was revealed to the world, the Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold is now officially available in Malaysia. The Made by Google team has essentially stayed true to its promise to release a Pixel foldable device in Malaysia after our market missed the development cycle for the Pixel 9 Pro Fold.
Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold Malaysia pricing, retailers
Initially, we thought that the Pixel 10 Pro Fold would be released in Malaysia with just one variant. Fast forward to earlier this month, and we have since learned that customers in Malaysia have two options:
- Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold 512GB: RM8,599
- Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold 256GB: RM7,999
For our market, the Pixel 10 Pro Fold is only available in the Moonstone colourway. That being said, you can choose to have the Google Pixelsnap case for the device (priced at RM339) in Obsidian or Jade if you are not fond of Moonstone.
The new Pixel 10 Pro Fold can now be obtained from selected retailers and telcos. Depending on the retailers, you might be able to get discounts of RM600 to RM900 for the new foldable:
- Official Google Pixel Store: Shopee
- Senheng: Shopee / Official Online Store
- SenQ: Official Online Store
- Thunder Match: Shopee / Lazada / Official Online Store
- Urban Republic: Official Online Store
If you prefer to purchase it through a telco, the Pixel 10 Pro Fold is currently available from Maxis and U Mobile. We were told that it is also going to be available from CelcomDigi, but we have yet to see the device being listed on the telco’s website.
Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold quick specs
Being a foldable, that means the Pixel 10 Pro Fold has two different screens. On the outside, there is a 6.4-inch Actua OLED display with 1080 x 2364 resolution, a dynamic refresh rate range of 60 to 120Hz, and is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2.
On the inside, the 10 Pro Fold features an 8-inch Super Actua Flex OLED display with 2076 x 2152 resolution, a much wider dynamic refresh rate range of 1 to 120Hz and is covered by an Ultra Thin Glass (UTG). Google also said that the screen features two layers of anti-impact film for additional drop protection.
Designed to meet the IP68 standard which Google said is the first for a foldable device, the 10 Pro Fold also features a new gearless hinge that was claimed to be twice as durable as its predecessor and can last over 10 years of folding. The company also said both of the 10 Pro Fold’s displays have peak brightness level of 3000 nits which provides them visibility in both indoor and outdoor.
Just like other devices within the Pixel 10 Pro family, the 10 Pro Fold is running on the equally new Google Tensor G5 processor. it also has 16GB of RAM as well as storage options of up to 1TB but in Malaysia, the choice maxes out at 512GB. With its 5015mAh battery, Google claimed that its new foldable has a battery life of more than 24 hours and can be pushed further up to 72 hours via the Extreme Battery Saver mode.
Even though one might consider the 10 Pro Fold as the bigger brother of 10 Pro XL, its maximum charging rate is much lower. Specifically, the wired charging rate for the 10 Pro Fold maxes out at 30W wired charging while its maximum wireless charging rate is 15W when used with Qi2-certified wireless chargers such as the new Google Pixelsnap chargers.
Being a Pixel device, the 10 Pro Fold has also been equipped with a variety of photography hardware. On its back is a triple camera system that features a 48MP Quad PD main camera, a 10.5MP Dual PD ultra-wide camera with Macro Focus, and a 10.8MP Dual PD telephoto camera that has 5x optical zoom capability as well as 20x Super Res Zoom feature.
For the main and telephoto cameras, they also feature an optical and electronic image stabilisation system. Not to forget, both the external and internal screen has their own 10MP Dual PD cameras.
