Google Pixel 9 Pro Folding Camera Leaked - It's Underwhelming!

The upcoming Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold has appeared in the Camera FV-5 app's device database (via 91mobiles), confirming several rumored details about the new folderable's camera

The database entry contains a lot of information, but let's focus on a key element: the Pixel 9 Pro Fold's main rear camera apparently takes 12MP photos, just as the original Pixel Fold did, using pixel binning (image processing We can assume that pixel binning (combining pixel data during image processing) is managed by the 48MP sensor to improve the brightness of the resulting image Like the Pixel Fold, this camera also has a wide f/17 aperture and optical image stabilization to reduce blurring in photos and videos

No other rear cameras are mentioned in the Camera FV-5, but we can expect at least the Pixel 9 Pro Fold to feature the same 108MP ultrawide camera and 108MP 5x telephoto camera as the Pixel Fold Older rumors suggest that an upgraded ultra-wide camera sensor may be included in the Pixel 9 Pro Fold

Meanwhile, the front should feature a 10MP camera with f/22 aperture Whether this refers to the front-facing camera on the cover screen or the camera on the inner display is not clear from the certification However, given that the Pixel Fold uses a 95MP outer selfie camera and an 8MP inner selfie camera, this will certainly be an upgrade wherever it goes

Compared to the amount of leaks of other new Pixel phones, the Pixel 9 Pro Fold remains quite a mystery Google has already revealed the design of the new Pixel foldable with a square camera block design, a new larger display, more RAM, a new Tensor G4 chip, and even new AI power such as call recording and automatic transcription We are told that this could be the case However, three of the phone's expected five cameras remain unknown, as do its battery and charging specifications, and whether Google will keep the price the same as last year or increase it, as we just saw Samsung do with the Galaxy Z Fold 6

Fortunately, there is only one week left until Made By Google on August 13 There, the Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold, as well as the Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, and Pixel 9 Pro XL will make their first official appearance We may also see the unconfirmed Pixel Watch 3 and Pixel Buds Pro 2, as well as the official release of Android 15
