New renderings and design details for the long-rumored Google Pixel Fold have appeared online, including display sizes and overall sizes, and a date expected to be launched next spring. According to well-known leaker OnLeaks, the Google Pixel Fold will feature a form factor similar to the Oppo Find N, with a 5.79-inch external screen on the front, a camera hole in the upper middle, a 7.69-inch foldable inner screen and a right-aligned selfie camera cutout embedded in a slightly thicker bezel.
It is said that Samsung 's OLED panels are made of ultra-thin glass (UTG) covers, and this part is also provided by Samsung.
It is said that the size of the display screen is placed in a round-edge casing. After being expanded, the dimensions are about 158.7×139.7×5.7 mm, slightly wider than OPPOFind N and approximately the same height. The thickness of the camera module bulge is 8.3 mm.
The camera bulge on the back of the screen is reminiscent of Google's latest Pixel phone, a triple-lens headline with flash and microphone, while the SIM card tray is located at the bottom edge of the outer screen. The USB-C port is located directly opposite when folded. The volume button is located on the right edge, next to it is a power button equipped with a fingerprint scanning device. Rumors before
suggest that the Pixel Fold will be powered by Google's Tensor G2 chip processor and will be equipped with at least 12GB of memory. It will most likely run Android 13 systems. Starting price is expected to be $1,799, with black and silver available when the device is available in May 2023.
Google's foldable machine has been rumored to be a long time ago. Documents leaked in 2020 suggest that Google plans to release a foldable smartphone by the end of 2021, but that hasn't happened. At the recent I/O developer conference, Google didn't even mention the foldable device, causing some Pixel fans to doubt whether the development of the device has been cancelled.
In 2019, when Google revealed that it was developing technology that could be used for foldable devices, it admitted in the same sentence that it did not see "a clear use case". However, Ross Young, an analyst at at the Display Supply Chain Consulting Company (DSCC), said that the new chips Google hopes to include are likely to drag on the device's development progress.
Meanwhile, Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold and Flip devices have entered this nascent market, while Google is in the catching-up state. But it is not clear whether Apple follows in this field. According to Apple analyst Kuo , the long-rumored foldable iPhone is unlikely to be launched in 2025 or later. Apple 's first foldable device could even be a mix of iPhone and iPad, or just a foldable iPad.
