Pixel Fold launched today at Google's developers conference following leaks

Google boasts it's the 'thinnest foldable' but it's heavier than Samsung's version

Also launched are two more devices - the £449 Pixel 7a and £599 Pixel Tablet

Four years after Samsung released its first foldable smartphone, Google has finally followed suit.

Google's new Pixel Fold, the 'very thinnest foldable' on the market, costs an eyewatering £1,749 – making it the tech giant's most expensive device yet.

When folded, it looks much like a standard smartphone, with a 5.8-inch screen on one side and three rear cameras on the back.

But it opens up vertically like a book to reveal an impressive 7.6-inch tablet-style screen, intended for watching YouTube videos, working on-the-go and more.

Google announced the Pixel Fold at its annual developer conference, Google I/O, today along with two other devices – the Pixel 7a and the Pixel Tablet.
