The and are each solid phones in their own right, but they have standout features that set them apart. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 has a novel new form factor that just works, while the Google Pixel Pro 11 Fold has durability in its arsenal. But both phones are also known for their photography chops, which is what I recently compared. Also: Pixel 11 Pro Fold vs Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8: I'm a fan of both foldables, but this one winsThe Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 has two 50-megapixel sensors for wide and ultrawide photographs. The Pixel 11 Pro Fold has a 48-megapixel main sensor, a 10.8 telephoto camera at 5x, and a 10.5-megapixel sensor for ultrawide shots. On paper, it would seem like the Z Fold 8 has the advantage; its lack of a telephoto sensor being the only weakness. While in Dusseldorf and Cologne, Germany for GamesCom, I put both of these phones through their paces, so here's how things turned out. Note that in all the photos below, the Samsung phone is on the left and the Pixel is on the right.The main cameraThe main cameras are the heavy hitters for these phones, and they are both quite good. Both capture really nice detail and have good color science. Both phones reflect different photographic philosophies though, and you'll notice this color science throughout the photos in this article. Generally, Samsung processes photos more than most other manufacturers. It's noticeable in the photo above, but even more so in the set of photos below. Samsung photos come away brighter, but can appear more washed out than those from other phones. In the photo below, the Pixel 11 Pro Fold gives you more shadows and sharper contrast than what Samsung captures. Samsung's photos are a bit more pleasing to look at without additional editing and therefore more readily sharable. That's not necessarily a good or bad thing. Also: I saw the Google Pixel 11 Pro Fold - and found 3 key reasons to buy it over SamsungCameras in the darkYou get the same thing when the lights go down. Samsung makes its bright spots overall brighter, but the shadows are also darker. The Pixel shows more color and texture in the dark street. Light sources can get quite bright, and neither phone has trouble with them, but neither does either phone handle motion very well. Be sure to keep your subjects still in low light conditions. Speaking of light sources, both phones handled capturing the candle flame very well. There's no blown-out light source here which can be challenging. One thing that's not clear in these crops is the area around the candles. The focus falloff for the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 hides a lot of sins in the dark background inside the bokeh. That bokeh is not there for the Pixel and it makes the surrounding area pretty grainy. That'll disappear in a social media post, but it's very clear in at full resolution.Also: Google Pixel 11 Pro XL vs Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra: I compared both - this one pulls aheadLong-range shots As for ultrawide shots, both phones give you good detail. The Pixel 11 Pro Fold has a bit of fisheye effect in its ultrawide photos, where trees around the edges of photos don't necessarily grow straight up. But the detail you get from the smaller sensor on the Pixel is surprisingly good. I was quite happy with the results from both phones. As for telephoto, the nod here has to go to the Pixel. Both phones handle zoom pretty well all the way up to 10x. Both handle it pretty well, even when light is challenging, like in this sign at GamesCom. Samsung's 50-megapixel main sensor can do some good things when you crop in to zoom -- there's a lot of room there. By default, the Z Fold 8 will give you 2x, 4x, and 10x max. The Pixel 11 Pro Fold gets 2x, 5x, 10x and then goes all the way up to 30x, and the resolution of those shots are very good as evidenced by the clock below, both of which were shot at maximum zoom.The selfie cameraWhen it comes to selfies, the front-facing cameras on the phones are both adequate, but neither one is stellar. The Pixel will give you better shots, especially at night. You get more detail, and light sources are a lot tamer in the background. The Samsung again, is overall very bright, and loses some of the detail. Both phones also allow you to use the cover screen to preview a shot from the main shooter, and the Pixel 11 Pro fold does this much better than Samsung. The Pixel actually disables touch on the inside screen so you don't get phantom touches when holding the phone. Samsung does not do that, resulting in accidentally tapping the inside screen which changes the focus, zoom, or even accidentally close the camera. It's annoying. Overall verdictOverall, both phones performed pretty well. Both are hobbled on the spec sheet with the missing a telephoto camera, and the Pixel 11 Pro Fold having small sensors in its auxiliary cameras. Both both out performed those expectations well, which was great to see. My first ever visit to Dusseldorf and Cologne was captured well, and I would have been happy carrying either phone, let alone both.Also: I replaced my Samsung with the Google Pixel 11 Pro Fold - a week later, I'm going backThat being said, if I had to choose, based on cameras alone, I'd personally go with the . I expected the auxiliary sensors to underperform, but I was consistently surprised in the photos it produced. The versatility of the cameras is what draws me the most with Google's color science being a close second. So if you forced me to pick one, the Pixel is riding in my pocket.
