Pixel 10 Pro Fold’s ‘smoke show’ hasn’t broken my faith, but shaken it badly

When Google launched the Pixel 10 Pro Fold, I was genuinely impressed. Finally, a foldable phone with IP68 water and dust resistance, a first for the category. It felt like a landmark moment for foldable phones, with Google proving that the form factor could be as tough as traditional smartphones. I was even happy to overlook its slightly bulky frame and familiar design because the promise of durability seemed worth it.
