Earlier today, Google finally made the Pixel 9 family official, including the Pixel 9 Pro Fold. If the company's second foldable smartphone caught your attention, we have some bad news for you if AT&T is your carrier of choice.
For some reason, AT&T has decided not to sell the Pixel 9 Pro Fold. This is despite the fact that it is offering its predecessor, the original Pixel Fold, and will also have all the other Pixel 9 devices ready for its customers.
The carrier unfortunately didn't elaborate on the reasons behind its rather puzzling decision. Its stance could impact Google's foldable phone sales in the US, as AT&T has nearly 72 million postpaid subscribers and Americans are more accustomed to buying their new devices through their carriers.
If you don't mind buying your Pixel 9 Pro Fold elsewhere unlocked, you'll likely be able to use it on AT&T, but keep in mind that as of now, the carrier hasn't confirmed that it will certify the device for use on its network, so the situation is still uncertain.
The good news (at least if you're not an AT&T customer) is that Verizon and T-Mobile are will sell Google's new foldable smartphone. It will be available on September 4th starting at $1,799.
