Google launched the Pixel Fold in May last year, marking its first foray into the foldable space. Pixel Fold 2 is said to be getting a new design and hardware upgrade. However, a new report suggests that Google may change the naming convention for its foldable smartphones. The tech giant will reportedly launch a foldable phone called “Pixel 9 Pro Fold.” This represents a significant shift from the original Pixel Fold. Additionally, the upcoming Pixel 9 series is said to include four models.
A Report Android Authority cites Google insiders as saying that Google will use a different name for the Pixel Fold 2. The upcoming Pixel foldable phone may be called “Pixel 9 Pro Fold” instead of Pixel Fold 2. This renaming strategy hints at the integration of the next foldable phone into the Pixel 9 series, rather than keeping it as a standalone device.
The publication further claims that the Pixel 9 series will include four models this year – Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, Pixel 9 Pro XL, and Pixel 9 Pro Fold. The latter is said to be internally known as a “comet”. All these models are said to run on the rumored Tensor G4 SoC.
If Google continues to use the Pixel 9 Pro Fold name and integrates the second-generation foldable phone into the Pixel 9 series, we’d expect it to launch alongside the rest of the Pixel 9 series in October, rather than in May. Launched at Google I/O conference.
Google has not yet confirmed the names of the Pixel Fold 2 and Pixel 9 Pro Fold. Of course, things could change before the phone is finally released, so all of these details should be considered carefully.
The Pixel Fold was launched at the Google I/O 2023 event in May last year. The base model with 256GB storage is priced at $1,799 (approximately Rs. 1,47,500).
The Pixel Fold runs on Google’s Tensor G2 SoC and comes with a Titan M2 security chip and 12GB LPDDR5 RAM. It has a triple rear camera unit that includes a 48-megapixel primary wide-angle lens, a 10.8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens, and a 10.8-megapixel dual PD telephoto lens. For selfies, there is a 9.5-megapixel sensor on the outer display and an 8-megapixel selfie camera on the inside. The phone is equipped with a 4,821mAh battery and supports 30W charging and wireless charging.
