The Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold is not only the best foldable that I have ever used (previous Z Fold 3 & 4 owner), but this is the best phone I have ever owned. Part of that is because of the software and this is where Android really shines. First they have taken a few steps to combat spam/robo calls, by screen and allowing you to block them with one button. I typically get 2-3 per day and the last 2 days I haven't received any. I am sure I will still get them but they seem less frequent. Second is the call notes feature, which transcribes and takes notes of the conversation. when activated, it plays a brief message that the other caller can hear letting them know the conversation is being recorded and then once the call is over you can view the notes from the call. This comes in handy when having discussions while driving or when unable to take notes. They also have these google assistant routines when you set alarms which allows the weather or calendar agenda to be displayed when the alarm rings. The hardware is the second reason this phone is my favorite. The outside screen is similar to any bar style phone and just slightly wider than the Z Fold device which makes the screen so much more usable. When open the phone feels like the equivalent of having 2 monitors for your computer. Runnings 2 apps side by side is what this phone was made for. The camera's are great even though I have taken man pics with them yet. Overall this is the best phone I have ever had and would highly recommend this to anyone in the market for a foldable.

This wasn’t just a phone. It was hope, connection, and accessibility wrapped into a sleek little package. I recently purchased a Google Pixel phone for my mother, who is slowly losing her eyesight. As her daughter and caregiver, every decision I make is about preserving her sense of independence, and this Pixel truly delivered. With its intuitive interface, large screen, and accessibility features like voice control and magnification, it has become a lifeline for her. She can now navigate messages, check appointments, and stay connected with her family without needing help every time. She feels included and confident again. What made this experience truly memorable was the team at the Best Buy Manassas, VA location. The store manager and associates were incredibly understanding, patient, and kind. They didn’t rush me, listened to my requirements with care, and offered the best deal available on the device. They took time to explain the accessibility settings, helped me set everything up in-store, and made sure I left with a fully functioning, connected phone to place in my mother's hands right away. That meant the world to me. This was more than a tech purchase. It was a moment of dignity, compassion, and thoughtful customer service. Thank you to the Best Buy Manassas team, especially the manager and her associates, for helping make this possible. Just so they recognize me, I brought them Starbucks coffees as a small gesture of gratitude after the purchase. —Swetha S.
