Here’s everything we know about the Google Pixel Fold, including price, release date, specs and features, and what we can expect from this highly anticipated foldable device.

Release date/price

Google’s rumored foldable smartphone, the Pixel Fold, has been the subject of speculation for some time now. While there’s no official confirmation from Google of the Pixel Fold’s existence or release date, various sources have provided conflicting information about when the device will arrive.

At Google I/O 2022, the company revealed a range of hardware products slated to launch in late 2022 or early 2023, including the Pixel 7, Pixel Watch and even the yet-to-be-released Pixel Tablet. but no mention of a foldable phone. Previous rumors suggested that the Pixel Fold would release in the fourth quarter of his 2022, but this never happened.

However, display analyst Ross Young claims that panel production for the Pixel Fold will begin soon, with the device debuting in the spring of 2023. “We expect it to be available in March,” Young said.In contrast, popular leakers John Prosser claims the Pixel Fold will be released in May 2023. This will coincide with the annual Google I/O conference, where the company frequently announces new phone releases.

As for the Pixel Fold’s price, we expect it to be at the high end of the spectrum. John Prosser The device claims to be priced at $1,799, the same price as the Galaxy Z Fold 4. This is no surprise. Nevertheless, it’s worth noting that the Pixel Fold isn’t expected to cost more than Samsung’s offerings.

design & display

According to rumors and leaked renders, the Pixel Fold will feature a similar design to the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and OPPO Find N. Opening the inner display transforms the phone into a tablet-sized device. This inner display can be folded around a vertical hinge, allowing for a compact and portable design. With an unfolded size of 158.7 x 139.7 x 5.7 mm, it is one of the thinnest foldable devices on the market.

prominent leaker ONLEAKS The Pixel Fold claims to have a 5.79-inch cover display and a 7.69-inch internal display. Both the inner and outer displays are high resolution and support high refresh rates. Additionally, as you can see in the renderings, the Pixel Fold’s internal display has prominent top and bottom bezels compared to other foldable products we’ve seen. That’s because the inner display’s front camera fits inside the phone’s top frame, unlike the Galaxy Z Fold 4 (which has a camera under the display) and the OPPO Find N2 (which has a punch-hole camera).

leaker John Prosser reports that the Pixel Fold will be available in two colors, Chalk (black) and Obsidian (white).He didn’t reveal the weight of the foldable, but sources are close. Prosser claims that the Pixel Fold is very heavy. There are also rumors that the Pixel Fold will have a fingerprint sensor on the side instead of an under-display fingerprint scanner and a triple camera module on the back (more on that below).

Tech Specs (Rumor)

Rumor has it that the Google Pixel Fold will feature the same Tensor G2 chipset as the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro. According to leaked benchmarks, this high-performance chip will come with 12 GB of RAM. Rumor has it that the Pixel Fold will come with 128GB of storage, but we expect Google to ship with at least 256GB of onboard storage.

We expect the Pixel Fold to work with Android 13 out of the box. Not only does this mean that the Pixel Fold will have Material You theme support and Tensor-powered AI features such as the Magic Eraser tool and Clear Calling, but the fold-specific features Google has been adding to Android You can also expect software features. Release of Android 12L.

John Prosser According to sources, the Pixel Fold will be equipped with a “Pixel flagship camera.”Popular leaker and researcher Kuba Wojciechowski The Pixel Fold claims to have a triple camera setup consisting of a 64MP Sony IMX787 sensor, a 10MP telephoto lens and a 12MP ultra-wide sensor. on the other hand, Prosser The Pixel Fold will reportedly have two 9.5MP selfie cameras.

Then stitch the shots together for the best results. It is believed that this will reduce the capture time even further than the method Google currently uses.
