Looking to score a great price on one of the best foldable phones money can buy? We've laid out this week's best Google Pixel Fold deals just down below to help our readers save as much cash as possible on this admittedly pricey device.

The Google Pixel Fold debuts at $1,799 / £1,749  for the 12GB RAM / 256GB storage option, which is significantly more expensive than any other previous Google device. It does, however, feature a powerful Tensor G2 chipset, excellent cameras, and a gorgeous 7.6-inch inner display that rivals the very best from the competition. If you're interested in a full run-down of the device, head on over to our Google Pixel Fold review for a detailed expert opinion.

The device is available from a narrower selection of retailers when compared to the latest Google Pixel 7 deals or Google Pixel 7a deals but there are still some great options. 

The device isn't the latest in the range anymore (check out our Google Pixel 8 deals page for the newest flagships), but the Pixel Fold is still readily available at most retailers. Aside from big carrier options like AT&T and Verizon, there have also recently been superb price cuts on unlocked devices at Amazon. Google itself also runs a great trade-in service that you can use all year round to get a discount on an unlocked phone (usually with rebates of up to $500). 

Finally, if you're interested in comparing these promotions to the latest competition, head on over to our new Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 deals page. Alternatively, cast the net out wider with our main cell phone deals page, which includes devices from Apple, Samsung, Google, and many other leading brands.

Google Pixel Fold: up to $1,000 off with a trade-in, plus free tablet at Verizon

Google Pixel Fold: up to $1,000 off with a trade-in, plus free tablet at Verizon
Verizon's current lineup of Pixel Fold deals offers a flexible array of options for both new and existing customers. Right now, it's the new-line deals that are the best with either an option to get a massive trade-in rebate of up to $1,000 or a flat discount of $900 alongside a new unlimited data line. In addition, there are some good freebies on the cards right now including a Samsung tablet worth $550 by itself, a $220 saving on the Pixel Watch 2, and a 65-inch TV. We'd recommend the tablet and the Pixel Watch here because the free TV doesn't stack with the trade-in or new-line discounts on the phone. Note, however, that you will need to pay for additional cellular lines for those devices.

Google Pixel Fold: $52.23$20.99/mo with an unlimited plan at AT&T

This week's Google Pixel Fold deals at AT&T have a significant discount on the device when you bundle it up with an unlimited plan - offering the Fold for under half price, in fact. Unlike with previous discounts at the carrier, no trade-ins are needed to be eligible for this saving; which makes it the cheapest non-trade-in foldable device at the carrier right now. 

Google Pixel Fold: up to $500 off with a trade-in at the Google Store

If you're looking for an unlocked device, currently the only option is to go via the Google Store itself. Pound for pound, this isn't the best deal on the market right now but you can still get a sizeable trade-in rebate on your device here while avoiding those pesky unlimited data plans at the major carriers. Note, we're estimating the maximum trade-in rebate here by using the drop-down to select the iPhone 14 Pro Max, which is usually the highest possible valued phone you can trade (cheaper phones will fetch a smaller rebate). 

Google Pixel Fold: up to $700 off over 24-months at Google Fi

Those who don't want to contend with the big carrier networks can also consider Google's Fi prepaid option. While a little pricier than some prepaid carriers, Google Fi will give new customers a significant $700 discount on the latest Pixel Fold. There is a catch, however, in that the rebate is giving in the form of monthly discounts on your plan - equalling to roughly $29 per month. Still, this is a pretty good discount considering Google Fi is overall a little cheaper than bigger carriers like AT&T or Verizon.

Should I buy the Pixel Fold or the Galaxy Z Fold 5?

Google Pixel Fold vs Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 front straight open

Tough question - both are fantastic devices and debut at the same price ($1,799 / £1,7949). They both feature excellent internal components, a refined foldable design, and excellent camera systems - anyone would be happy with either device.

Design-wise, the Pixel Fold features a wider screen layout, with the device roughly being the same aspect ratio as a normal device when folded. In comparison, the Fold 5 features much thinner displays that are still taller than wider when completely unfolded. Essentially, the Pixel Fold becomes more like a wide-screen tablet when unfolded while the Fold 5 is more 'phone-like'. 

In terms of components, we'd give the Fold 5 the edge in terms of outright performance thanks to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset. The Pixel Fold's Tensor G2 is optimized around AI integration, which lends to fantastic computational features like Photo Unblur or Magic Eraser.

Lastly, while both the Pixel Fold and Fold 5 feature extended app support for wide-screen usage, only the latter currently features stylus support. If you're a productivity-focused user, then the Fold 5's fantastic S-Pen support could be a reason to go with the Samsung device.
