Following recent releases in Google’s Pixel series, parts for the new Pixel 9 Pro Fold are now available on iFixit. The most notable addition is the repair kit for the Pixel 9 Pro Fold inner screen, essential for users dealing with damaged displays. Released just two months after the Pixel Fold series, this parts update includes multiple components for screen repair, with a premium price reflecting the complex design and technology used in Google’s latest foldable.

The Pixel 9 Pro Fold main display repair comes at a steep price

Replacing the Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold inner screen comes with a significant price tag. The component, which includes a metal frame and hinge, costs between $899.99 and $1,199.99. The display is an ultra-thin, flexible OLED panel with a resolution of 2076 x 2152 and 373 pixels per inch. This inner screen repair price is comparable to that of its predecessor, the Pixel Fold, but the higher costs reflect the increased complexity of the new model’s display.

In addition to the inner screen, iFixit provides other Pixel 9 Pro Fold repair options at more accessible prices. The outer screen is available for $189.99, reflecting a $30 increase from the first-generation Pixel Fold model. Battery replacement is also available, with the base battery and flip battery both priced at $66.99. These affordable options for outer components cater to users who may experience wear on frequently used features.

Camera and charging assembly replacements are also available

For users seeking camera replacements, iFixit offers the rear camera assembly for $249.99. This part includes three lenses, a price increase from the previous model’s $139.99. Additionally, the outer front camera costs $79.99, while the inner front camera is $89.99. The USB-C charging assembly is also available, priced at $59.99, providing further support for Pixel 9 Pro Fold maintenance.

iFixit supports these new Pixel 9 Pro Fold repair options with a comprehensive guide. The step-by-step instructions include 199 steps, with an estimated completion time of three to four hours.
