Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold Camera Beats Samsung Z Fold 7

Google's latest foldable phone has just landed, and I've been putting its camera through its paces against some serious competition. Google's third-generation foldable device incorporates their newest Tensor G5 processor and enhanced imaging capabilities (Phone Arena), and it maintains the same core camera hardware as its predecessor while leaning on significant processing improvements (CNET).

During extensive testing in London, I found results that might challenge assumptions about which foldable delivers the best photography experience (Android Headlines).

The verdict: Processing power trumps megapixels

After extensive testing in varied scenes, megapixels did not decide the winner. The Pixel 10 Pro Fold’s computational photography, powered by the Tensor G5, consistently created more appealing images than higher resolution rivals (Tech Sputit). The Galaxy Z Fold 7 improved over past Samsung foldables with that 200MP sensor, yet it still produced darker or oversaturated images next to the Pixel’s more natural output (Android Headlines).

The Oppo Find N5 took the ultra-wide crown with the most balanced results in that lane (Android Headlines). It also frequently captured more fine detail across scenes, a reminder that smart processing can rival brute-force sensor specs (Android Headlines).

Bottom line: the Pixel 10 Pro Fold shows how Google’s computational edge matters even more on foldables, where physical constraints demand smarter software. Samsung’s 200MP hardware is real progress, but Google’s more modest sensors, paired with the Tensor G5, deliver photos that feel refined and ready to share.

The Oppo Find N5 deserves a shout for pushing back on the idea that only Google and Samsung can build a flagship-class foldable camera. Its detail retention and ultra-wide balance hint at a fiercely competitive field, with creative answers to the quirks of a folding design.

PRO TIP: For foldable photography fans, pick based on workflow. The Pixel 10 Pro Fold is for clean, post-ready shots with minimal tweaking. The Galaxy Z Fold 7 gives headroom if you love heavy editing. The Oppo Find N5 splits the difference, with consistently strong detail across scenarios.

Looking ahead, this comparison shows foldable cameras have moved past first-gen compromises. The real action now sits in the processing pipeline, tuned for the chances and constraints that come with a phone that opens up, and Google’s latest effort suggests it reads that brief better than most.

Apple's iOS 26 and iPadOS 26 updates are packed with new features, and you can try them before almost everyone else. First, check our list of supported iPhone and iPad models, then follow our step-by-step guide to install the iOS/iPadOS 26 beta — no paid developer account required.
