2) Google I/O 2023: Pixel Fold Steals The Show With Its Revolutionary Design, Top-End Specifications.Details?

Ans) Google has finally unveiled its long-awaited foldable smartphone, the Pixel Fold, at this year’s I/O conference. With rumors and leaks circulating for years, tech enthusiasts and Pixel fans alike have been eagerly anticipating the official announcement. And now, it’s finally here.

The Pixel Fold features a unique mini-tablet-shaped design that sets it apart from other foldable devices on the market. It boasts a stunning 7.6-inch flexible OLED display that can fold in half to easily fit into your pocket or purse. The device comes in two elegant colors: porcelain and obsidian.

Under the hood, the Pixel Fold is powered by the Tensor G2 chipset, Google’s latest and most powerful mobile processor yet. This ensures a smooth and seamless performance, even when running multiple apps or demanding games.

One of the standout features of the Pixel Fold is the dual screen interpreter mode, which allows for split-screen mode with two apps side by side. This is particularly useful for multitasking and productivity, as well as for using the device as a mini-laptop replacement.

For added security and convenience, the Pixel Fold comes with Pixel safe, Pixel speech, and Pixel assist, which enable users to keep their personal information safe and access the device’s features with voice commands. Additionally, media drag and drop is supported, making it easy to transfer files between the Pixel Fold and other devices.

The camera setup on the Pixel Fold is also impressive, featuring a high-quality lens that takes stunning photos and videos. It is also equipped with Pixel speech, which allows for hands-free operation of the camera and other features.
Overall, the Google Pixel Fold is a highly anticipated device that combines cutting-edge

technology with innovative design. Its impressive features and powerful performance make it a top contender in the foldable smartphone market. The Pixel Fold is set to launch in June at a price point of $1800.

It is available to order in the US and will roll out soon. There is a free Pixel Watch for pre-orders. It will also be available in Germany, Japan and United Kingdom soon.

5) Google Pixel Fold might be the cleanest foldable device.Details?

Ans) Expected hardware specifications
The most eye-catching among all the features that the Pixel foldable is expected to have is its design element. The device has unnoticeably thin bezels, and the initial renders posted by Google on Twitter look stunning.

The Google Pixel Fold’s Tensor G2 processor, 8 gigabytes of RAM, a sizable 120Hz 7.6-inch OLED or AMOLED display, and a triple camera setup on the back panel are the key specifications we expect to see in the box. We can expect Google’s latest foldable to have the same beautiful, color-accurate images that it is known for producing for its software processing.

The Google Pixel Fold’s Tensor G2 processor, 8 gigabytes of RAM, a sizable 120Hz 7.6-inch OLED or AMOLED display, and a triple camera setup on the back panel are the key specifications we expect to see in the box. We can expect Google’s latest foldable to have the same beautiful, color-accurate images that it is known for producing for its software processing.

The price point where Google would like to attract customers with its phones is around $1650, which is the average price at which Samsung typically releases its Galaxy Fold smartphones. This selling price will be insanely attractive for a foldable device that offers the cleanest Android experience with user customizability.

We were expecting the device to be announced during the Google I/O event as per past rumors, and today Google officially confirmed its launch date to be May 10. On the same day, the product will also be up for preorder on the Google Store, giving eager consumers and enthusiasts first dibs.

It will open a little later, on May 30, for wireless carriers and other retailers. The date of the final retail release is currently projected to be June 27.
The Pixel foldable might not be affordable for everyone, but it is not insanely expensive considering its gorgeous design and Pixel-grade cameras. So far, the device seems pretty promising, and we have to wait for the official release of the smartphone to confirm what specs it will hold.

Along with the Pixel 7a and Fold, the Google Tablet will likely receive some announcements at the I/O 2023 event. We can only wait until that time, and Google has shown that it was worthwhile to wait for its product.

6) What is Google Pixel Fold price and release date?

Ans) The Google Pixel Fold was announced at Google I/O, following an official tease on 4 May that confirmed the date and revealed the design. The Pixel Fold is priced at $1800 in the US, while it costs £1750 in the UK. That’s right, this is an expensive device, outstripping the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 when it comes to price.
The Google Pixel Fold is going on pre-order through the Google Store, in the US, UK, Germany and Japan initially, so you’ll be able to claim your device – and for those pre-ordering in the US, that will include a free Pixel Watch.
The shipping date is still is going to be around late June or early July.

7) How is Google Pixel Fold design?

Ans) * 139.7 x 79.5 x 12.1mm (folded); 139.7 x 158.7 x 5.8mm (unfolded), 283g
* Book-like foldable design
* Glass and aluminium, IPX8
* Obsidian and Porcelain colours

The Google Pixel Fold is clearly an evolution of the Pixel 7 design, with a similar look to the frame. The camera on the rear sits in a raised section, similar to the camera bar on the Pixel 7 Pro, but it doesn’t stretch right from edge to edge.

Google told us that the big problem with folding phones at the moment is how thick they are when folded, so the aim of the Pixel Fold design was to result in a slimmer device and to offer a more usable external display. At 5.8mm thick when unfolded, it’s going to be slim in the hand – although it’s not the slimmest out there, with the Huawei Mate X3 being just 5.3mm thick – and 11.08mm when folded, about a millimetre thinner than the Pixel Fold. However, the Pixel Fold is slimmer than Samsung’s rival, which is 6.3mm thick unfolded, but up to 15.8mm thick folded because of the hinge design.

Google has used stainless steel for the hinge, with a polished aluminium frame and Gorilla Glass Victus for the cover and rear glass panels. The whole thing has an IPX8 rating, meaning it’s water-resistant, but has no dust protection. The hinge will allow you to stand the phone at various angles, so you can use tabletop mode for taking photos for example, giving you loads of versatility.

There are two colours – Obsidian (black) and Porcelain (white ish) – and as we said, the frame and buttons look like the rest of the pixel family, as do the speaker grilles and everything else. There are stereo speakers supporting spatial audio.

The power button incorporates a fingerprint scanner for unlocking, with facial recognition also supported.

8) How is Pixel Fold display?

Ans) * Internal: 7.6in, OLED, 2208 x 1840 (380ppi), 120Hz, 1450 nits peak, HDR, 24-bit
* Cover: 5.8in, OLED, 2092 x 1080 (408ppi), 120Hz, 1550 nits peak, HDR, 24-bit
There’s a 7.6-inch internal display with a 2208 x 1840 pixel resolution resulting in 380ppi with a 6:5 aspect ratio. This means it’s not quite square, but it is a big space. Google doesn’t declare who the supplier of the folding panel is, but does say that it uses Ultra Thin Glass with a protective plastic layer, so it sounds like it’s a Samsung display. There’s an impressive 1450 nit peak brightness, so that should drive your HDR content really well and make everything look great.

The external display measures 5.8-inches and has a 2092 x 1080 pixel resolution meaning 408ppi and a 17.4:9 aspect ratio. It’s not the largest display on the exterior of a folding phone, but it’s wider than you’ll get from the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4, so might prove a little more useful. There’s a punch hole for the exterior camera. Again there’s a 1550 nits peak brightness, and a 1200 nits normal brightness, so the external display should also be great in bright conditions outdoors.

What we don’t really know is what sort of display crease there might be or how well it will withstand vigorous use.

9) What are Pixel Fold hardware specs?

Ans) * Google Tensor G2, 12GB RAM, 256/512GB storage
* 4821mAh, 30W wired, Qi standard wireless charging

The Pixel Fold is powered by Tensor G2. That’s Google’s in-house hardware found in the Pixel 7, which you can read more about in our explainer feature. This chipset might not match up to Snapdragon-powered rivals like the Galaxy Z Fold 4, but it’s still powerful and enables a lot of neat features in the current Pixels. It’s backed by 12GB RAM and 256 or 512GB storage – although there may be some regional variation here.

There’s a 4821mAh battery, which is said to support Google’s 30W charger for faster recharging, while also offering Qi wireless charging. Google says that you’ll get over 24 hours of battery from the Pixel Fold.

As to the actual performance, we don’t yet know exactly what the experience will be like. Google has redesigned a lot of Google apps to make better use of the screen space available for a better tablet-like experience. Until we review the Pixel Fold, however, we won’t know exactly how smooth the experience is. Having used Pixel Tensor G2 devices in the past, we have no doubt it will be nice and fast.

10) How is Pixel Fold cameras?

Ans) * External (triple camera system):
* Main: 48MP, 1/2in sensor, 0.8µm, f/1.7, OIS
* Ultrawide: 10.8MP, 1/3in sensor, 1.25µm, f/2.2, 121.1°
* Telephoto: 10.8MP, 1/3.1in sensor, 1.22µm, f/3.05, 5x optical, 20x Super Res Zoom
* Front: 9.5MP, 1.22µm, f/2.2, fixed focus
* Internal:
* 8MP, 1.12µm, f/2.0, fixed focus

There’s no shortage of cameras on the Pixel Fol; because there’s more sides and ways to hold and use cameras, you end up with effectively two “front” cameras, one on the external display and one on the internal display. Such is the way with this style of folding phone.

It’s also inescapable that the main camera on the rear can be used as a selfie camera too, because you can just open the whole thing up, using the external display as a viewfinder. That means that Google can say this is the highest quality selfie camera it has put on a Pixel phone, because it’s referring to that main rear camera.

Worth noting is the 5x periscope optical zoom and combined hybrid Super Res Zoom out to 20x, as well as the ultrawide, so there’s a full system of cameras to play with here. We suspect that the internal camera is going to be the weakest performer, but it’s also generally the most fiddly to use on a folding phone. We can’t assess the full performance of these cameras until we review the Pixel Fold, but given that much of the performance is driven by Google’s computational algorithms, we are expecting great performance. You’ll get all the fun features like Night Sight, Magic Eraser and more.

11) How is Pixel Fold software?

Ans) * Android 13
* 5 years of updates
Google is keen to point out that a lot of work has been done to improve the software experience for the Pixel Fold. It runs Android 4 and will have 5 years of Pixel Updates, which we suspect will equate to four OS version updates and 5 years of security updates. The modifications made for the larger display include adapting over 50 Google apps and working with partners to create better big screen experiences – that includes apps like Minecraft, Candy Crush, Evernote, Deezer, Kobo, TikTok, Spotify, Disney+ and more.

One of the native elements will be a split screen experience, drag and drop and with that tabletop mode supporting apps like Netflix and youTube. We’ve seen similar from Samsung, but it’s going to be great to see Google offering this natively.

On top of this you’ll get the clean experience that Pixel is known for, avoiding the pre-installs, duplication and bloat that some rivals will push on you. The other side of this benefit is that we’d expect the Pixel Fold to be front of the queue when it comes to updates. That’s on top of the smart functions that Google enables via AI, such as the transcribing recorder, dual screen live translation and a whole lot more.
