In 2021, analysts had expected that Pixel Fold - Google's new folding phone model - would be launched at Google I/O 2022. But during that conference, Pixel Fold still didn't appear. The reason for the delays in the Pixel Fold release date was perhaps that the Google flip phone hasn't met Google's required standards. After that, there have been many rumors that Pixel Fold will be launched at Google I/O 2023.
Finally, at this time, that rumor comes true, Google will introduce its very first foldable phone- the Pixel Fold at the upcoming Google I/O 2023 on May 10.

Pixel Fold - Google Flip Phone will be launched in Google I/O 2023
Folding Pixel Phone specs
Regarding Google Pixel Fold specs, the official specifications of this device have not yet been officially released by Google. However, following leaked marketing materials and a brief teaser video, it shows a full-sized external display similar to Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold devices. According to Kuba Wojciechowski - a Google software developer, the internal screen resolution of Pixel Fold can be 2208 x 1840 which is also very close to Samsung's specifications - Galaxy Z Fold 4 which has a 7.6-inch display inside. The resolution of the external display is expected to be 5.79 inches.
The Pixel folding phone measures 158.7 x 139.7 x 5.7 mm (6.2 x 5.5 x 0.2 inches) when unfolded (including the camera bar). When it is folded, it measures 139.7 x 78.74 x 12.7mm (5.5 x 3.1 x 0.5 inches). According to a CNBC report in April, Google foldable phones will include a Google Tensor G2 processor, and the device itself weighs 10 ounces. About color, Google's new flip phone is said to be available in silver or black, while the model with 512GB will only be available in black.
Google Flip Phone cameras
The leaked information by Front Page Tech shows that the selfie camera placed on the cover of the folding pixel phone is 9.5MP and the 8MP internal camera is located on the bezel just above the screen. The same leaked specs information reveals that the back cameras are a 48 MP main lens and the 10.8MP ultra-wide-angle camera with a 121.2-degree field of view. Finally, the 10.8MP telephoto camera with 5x optical zoom and up to 20x super-resolution zoom is also integrated into Pixel Fold. Capabilities of video recording include 4K at 30fps and 1080p at 60fps.

Additionally, alongside previously released features like Magic Eraser, Photo Unblur, Long Exposure, and Real Tone, a new camera feature that reportedly will be added to Pixel Foldable Phone is a "rear selfie camera" which can combine with a rear camera and an external display.
Google Pixel Fold price
According to John Prosser from Front Page Tech, the price of the 256GB Pixel Fold model will be an incredible number when it costs the same as Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 4 at $1,799, the 512GB Pixel Fold model will perhaps cost $1,919.
Following 9to5Google, they have reported that the Google Pixel phone may cost around $1,400, less than the Galaxy Z Fold series. At the moment, the most expensive foldable phone in the US is the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 with a price of $1,799 and we expect the Pixel Phone also to have a similar price.
Other Features of Google’s new foldable phone
Other Pixel Fold's unique features have also been mentioned in a report by Front Page Tech, it can be the most durable hinge of any foldable device. Additionally, a big battery is a feature that completely satisfies their most demanding customer. Pixel Fold's battery can provide usage of more than 24 hours and can last up to three days in extremely low-power saver mode. Users when buying a foldable phone, always worry about battery life and durability. But when it comes to Google flip phones, customers' two concerns will disappear because long battery life and durability are Google's competitive strengths. In terms of charging capabilities, the Pixel Fold is said to only support 23W wired charging, the same speed as the Pixel 7 Pro.

After a year of delaying the launch of the Pixel Folding Phone, Google now seems to have completed all the best features for the Pixel Fold. Google possibly has waited until the technology becomes more advanced. According to Michael Inouye - an analyst from research firm ABI, now's the time for Google to launch Pixel Fold when both software and hardware are "mature".Now all we need is to wait for the appearance of Pixel Fold and see how it competes with other competitors to become the most popular foldable phone.
