Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold vs OPPO Reno 16

Our Verdict: The OPPO Reno 16 has the better camera on paper, 50MP versus 48MP, plus a 50MP selfie camera against 10MP, and there's more battery in the Reno 16, 6700mAh to 4650mAh, which usually means longer between charges. The Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold has the bigger screen at 8" against 6.3", while the Reno 16 has the sharper one at 461 PPI, and the Reno 16 is the lighter phone at 188g against 257g. Only pay up for the Reno 16 if you'll use what it offers; if not, the Pixel 9 Pro Fold makes more sense.
