  "account": "Google could offer a Pixel 11 Pro Fold that rivals Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra at a lower price, according to recent leaks. The rumored Pixel 11 Pro Fold starts at $1,899, matching the Galaxy Z Fold8's price and undercutting the Ultra's $2,099 cost by $200. Its display size appears larger than the Fold8 Ultra, with an 8-inch inner display and a 6.4-inch cover display, nearly matching the Ultra's 6.5-inch screen. The foldable also boasts a 10.8MP telephoto camera with 5x optical zoom, a feature absent in the regular Fold8 but present in the Ultra, which tops out at 3x optical zoom. The Pixel 11 Pro Fold is expected to weigh 239 grams with a thickness of 10.1mm when folded, making it heavier and thicker than both the Fold8 and the Ultra. While Google's foldable offers larger displays and dedicated optical zoom for the same price, Samsung's Ultra still appeals to those prioritizing a thinner body, faster charging, and stronger main cameras. The Pixel 11 Pro Fold may struggle to justify a $200 price premium if Google confirms these specifications.",
