Google to launch its first foldable smartphone next year

The Google Pixel Fold is expected to hit the global market by 2023. There’s nothing official about the foldable phone from Google yet.

It was also reported that a developer spotted the mention of a foldable smartphone dubbed ‘Felix’, mentioned in Google’s Android 13 Quarterly Platform Release 1 beta. The official marketing name of the Pixel Foldable smartphone has not been revealed yet.

Ross Young, an analyst at Display Supply Chain Consultants (DSCC), has stated that panel shipments will start in January. The Pixel Notepad will likely be similar to the Oppo Find N foldable phone, albeit with a smaller form factor. It might have a Sony IMX787 64MP primary camera, Sony IMX386 12MP ultra-wide lens, and Samsung S5K3J1 10.8MP telephoto lens.

It can have a 10.8MP (S5K3J1) camera for selfies. It might contain an 8MP (Sony IMX355) camera. The Tensor chipset, according to the claim, will be foldable on the Pixel. No information has been made public regarding whether it will use the latest Tensor G2 found in the Pixel 7 series or the Tensor chip from last year. Though, it is anticipated that the tablet will have Android 13.

Additionally, it is rumored that the smartphone will include 12 GB of RAM and 512 GB of internal storage. The New York Times reported last month that Google is shifting some of its smartphone production from China to Vietnam and plans to manufacture 50% of its high-end phones there by 2023.
