Pixel 11 Pro Fold Fails Bend Test, But Shows Some Durability Gains
The Pixel 11 Pro Fold underwent JerryRigEverything's torture test and did not fare much better than its predecessor. While it didn't 'explode' like last year's model, it still broke under pressure.
Last year's Pixel 10 Pro Fold suffered a battery rupture, which is extremely rare in these tests. The Pixel 11 Pro Fold, on the other hand, cracked along the antenna line, just like every previous foldable from Google.
The phone showed improved durability, with its ceramic outer display resisting scratches up to Level 6 of the Moh's hardness scale. However, it did scratch at Level 7, and the back 'glass composite fiber' material is essentially just sturdy plastic that can be scratched easily.
