According to a CNBC report, Google intends to introduce the Pixel Fold, a foldable phone, in June. The foldable phone will cost more than usual. According to the report, the Pixel Fold will cost $1,700, which is still significantly less than some of the competing models.
Google has made a very bold statement about its upcoming device, and the search engine giant may announce it in May at Google I/O. According to the manufacturer, the market’s strongest hinge will be used in its foldable phone. When you unfold it, the internal screen will be 7.6 inches wide. It will be easily able to fit into the pocket when folded. It will be a smartphone that can withstand water and have a 24-hour battery life.
Google is a company that makes an effort to keep the cost of its goods down.
The pricey price tag has been influenced by the cost of the hinges and the folding screens. With the release of Android 12L, Google has already started to prepare the software for folding devices. According to CNBC, the Pixel fold will show off this software’s full potential.
There have been rumours about Apple’s own foldable devices for more than three years. But the Cupertino company has yet to formally introduce such a product. In its place, the iPad maker is concentrating on a foldable model. If the rumours about the Pixel fold’s release date are accurate, Google will have moved ahead of Apple in this market.
As of right now, Apple has not released any information regarding its foldable iPhone or when the company plans to enter that market. Analysts contend that the company won’t enter the foldable market until after 2025.
