Google revealed the Pixel Fold last week, following months of leaks and rumors, but there still weren’t many details about the phone. Today at Google I/O, the company revealed more about its first folding phone.

The Pixel Fold is a book-style folding phone, in the same form factor as the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold . There’s a small screen on the exterior, with a larger 7.6-inch display visible when the phone is fully opened. Google says it’s the thinnest folding phone on the market, and it has the same Tensor G2 chipset as the Pixel 7 and new Pixel 7a .

Google is also working on software features in its apps for the unique form factor, some of which was initially built for foldables from Samsung and other companies. There’s a “table-top mode” in YouTube, with the video on one side of the fold and other information on the other side of the screen. Google also showed off a live translation mode in Google Translate, where each screen is used for the other person’s conversations.

You can now pre-order the Pixel Fold on the Google Store for $1799 and will start to ship next month. Pre-orders also include a Pixel Watch.
