The Pixel 11 Pro is an excellent camera phone, yet its $1,099 price also puts faster flagships, lighter phones, huge batteries, and folding screens within reach.

A cracked inner screen on the Z Fold 8 Ultra will run you $639 to fix, according to Samsung's own official repair pricing.

Base-model flagships still sit around $1,200, but rising memory costs and shrinking perks suggest that ceiling may not last much longer.
