Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold 5G

The telephoto camera reaches 5x optical zoom, which is genuinely useful for portraits, stage shots and distant subjects. Many premium phones stop at 3x, so this gives it stronger reach.

The 8.0-inch OLED screen with 120 Hz refresh rate feels spacious for reading, split-screen work and video. 2700 nits of peak brightness also helps outdoors.

Google promises 7 years of OS and security updates, which is among the best commitments you can buy. That matters more at this price because buyers tend to keep these phones longer.

16 GB RAM gives the phone plenty of headroom for heavy app switching and large-screen multitasking. It is well suited to the way people actually use a foldable.

21W charging is a clear weak point for a phone this expensive. With a 1h 22m top-up from 20 to 100, it feels slower than many rivals in this class.

It scores about 1.19 million on AnTuTu, which is well behind the fastest phones above ₹60,000. Everyday use will be smooth, but buyers paying flagship money can get much more gaming power.

At ₹135900, it starts from a tough value position and needs to be exceptional across the board. It gets a lot right, but not enough to feel like standout value.

The camera hardware is versatile, but video tops out at 4K30 on the rear camera. At this price, some rivals push further with 4K60 or 8K recording.
