Google Pixel Fold - Unlocked Android 5G Smartphone with Telephoto Lens and Ultrawide Lens - Foldable Display - 24-Hour Battery - Obsidian - 256 GB (Renewed)

This was sold as in Excellent condition but easily could have been sold as in Premium Condition. It looked as good as NEW and has 98% battery life with only 151 charge cycles on a 3 year old phone as of Dec '25! So far it's runnjing great. I bought this phone when it was originally released, but screen cracked. Google eventually sent me a replacement. I was afraid of the replacement one cracking also, so sold it on Swappa. BUT at this price, I'll give it a go again. I really like this Passport style form factor for a folding phone. The seller did a wonderfull job to get this phone ready for resale!

Fully unlocked. The phones overall condition is 8/10. Outer screen has a long scratch that isn't noticeable in dim light. But in the sunlight is noticeable. Inner screen has no issues or flaws. The hinge is in pristine condition. Same as the body of the phone. Everything works great.

I bought this phone, and not only did it come with scratches on the screen, despite the good condition saying it shouldn't have scratches on the screen, it came locked to the Verizon network. No problem, I thought to myself. I'll just call Verizon and unlock it! Nope. They said it's unlocked in their system, and they're needing to open a fraud case to figure out why the phone isn't unlocked. I am a big fan of refurbished items. I think they're an important step in reducing waste, and using rare earth minerals in a sensible way. This is not a good refurbished item. I just want a phone that works, and not to be using my crappy backup phone, but instead, I have a headache. Don't buy this.

This is an awesome phone - if you have any questions if you might use a foldable phone, this is the way to try it. At this price point it's a total no brainer - the format is perfect, it runs smoothly even today. There's two things wrong in this 3 year old phone model: it's heavy for what you get vs more modern phones, and the battery life lasts only about a day. If you can spend $400 and make do with these two issues, you'll be rewarded with an amazing fun format that really impressed other people when you need to share, or you watch movies or videos, or have data to display or share. I really liked this phone and really think they screwed up by changing out of the passport format on the 9 and 10 fold. Hoping they return to it in the 11.

The phone is great, I had a z fold prior to this, I definitely like that this is thinner and has a MUCH more useable front screen. However, this is an issue with most of these phones, but the inner screen does not open all the way, which is normally fine, but sometimes in the wrong lighting it is very noticeable on the crease. Otherwise, battery has been great, performance is fine, and the price was right.

I've had my Pixel Fold now for about two months. I switched from an iPhone 13 Pro Max after being an iPhone user since the iPhone 3g. Something about a foldable was just too cool not to try. I got the phone for around $600 shipped to my door. I bought it as "Refurbished - Excellent", and that's exactly what I got. I couldn't tell if the phone was ever even used prior to me getting it. I've been using it without a case, just a glass screen protector on the front and one over the camera. The front glass does seem to micro scratch pretty easily, hence why I needed up with the screen protector. The battery life and charging speeds were a concern after reading about them, but I don't have any issues with either, period. I didn't charge the phone last night and I'm on it now, typing this review, with 30% battery life. If I had to compare, I'd say my iPhone had better battery life, but it isn't that noticeable and the Pro Max models are known for their exceptional battery life anyway. So what issues have I had? I mentioned the front display scratching easily which is a bummer, but I think they're using glass that is more resistant to shatter, so it's softer. Google Assistant. I miss Siri, and boy was Siri frustrating. I assumed Google's assistant was miles ahead, but not even close. Siri is more usable and I also hate saying Google to summons the assistant. Shouting a brand name just feels dirty. I just don't summons the assistant by voice anymore. Gemini is a step up, but still requires saying Hey Google. I thought android would allow more customization like changing the wake word, but no sir. The dang google search bar at the bottom of the screen. There's a search bar permanently at the bottom of the screen with Google's logo prominently across it. You cant get rid of it. I thought Android was known for its customization, but I never had an Apple logo plastered to my screen 24/7. The only thing you can do is replace the launcher with a third party one. I couldn't find one I liked. Lawnchair was the closest that kinda supports folding phones. Apple Music. You cannot ask Gemini to play a specific song. It doesn't currently support apple music integration. You'll also want to kill the apple music app from running in the background after you're done using it. Otherwise you'll notice excessive battery drain. It needs to be able to run in the background to continue playing after locking the phone. It doesn't fold open completely flat. It's true. I wish it snapped open, but it's a V1 product. Heaviness. The phone is a bit on the heavy side. I don't notice it too much in the pocket, but using it while folded in the closed position can feel a bit heavy after awhile. Using it while open feels great. The thickness while closed (again, with no case) is almost exactly the thickness of my iPhone 13 Pro Max with its case, a pretty thin case too. Overall I love it and I'm keeping it. It'a a cool piece of tech. And for the price, I don't have to worry too much about something happening to it, though I do take good care of it. I use it opened probably 60% of the time. I use it with a PS2 emulator, all the emulator really, and played through Simpsons Hit and run already. As a bonus, the feeling of it snapping closed is satisfying.

So far so good. My pixel8 charge port broke and needed an inexpensive replacement. This seemed like a cool phone so I took a chance. I have spectrum service and it works just fine, booted up no problem with great reception. Transferred all info and did the necessary updates. I actually really like this fold! The condition of the phone is excellent just as described. I wouldn't have known it was a refurb if it wasn't stated in the description. The camera is on par with what you would expect from a pixel. Battery life is actually better than I was expecting honestly. I think for the price, this is a great option for someone wanting to experience a fold phone. Screen is sharp, everything seems to be running smoothly and fluidly. All of the features work exactly as described. This is a short term review and will update the long term use as well when the time comes. Overall.... I have no regrets giving this phone a try, I actually like it much more than my 8. If you're thinking about it, give it a go! The crease is not even noticable when the screen is lit and looking straight on.

I had it a few days it was like brand new .... Then the inner screen started glitching and started going out real bad. Hopefully the next one doesn't have any problems..
