Google debuted its first foldable phone, the Pixel Fold, last year, featuring the company's Tensor G2 chipset. Now, there's a buzz about its successor, the Pixel Fold 2, with leaked renders hinting at a slimmer design and revamped camera setup.
Leaked render details
Recent leaks from Android Authority show the Pixel Fold 2's narrower form factor and redesigned camera module, similar to the OnePlus Open's design. The phone is expected to run on the Tensor G4 chipset, an upgrade from its predecessor.
Camera and display changes
The Pixel Fold 2's render suggests a smaller cover display compared to the Pixel Fold. Its inner screen may have a more square aspect ratio, resembling the OnePlus Open. The rear camera setup could house four sensors, including wide-angle, ultra-wide-angle, periscopic telephoto, and an unknown lens, an improvement over the Pixel Fold's triple-camera setup.
Hardware specifications
Leaked details hint at the Pixel Fold 2 sporting an aluminium frame with a noticeable crease and a hole punch cutout for the selfie camera. It may skip the Tensor G3 chipset and feature 16GB of LPDDR5 RAM and 256GB of UFS 4.0 storage.
Expected release
The Pixel Fold 2 is rumoured to launch in October, boasting upgraded specs and design enhancements compared to its predecessor.
Pixel Fold pricing
The original Pixel Fold was unveiled in May last year with a starting price of $1,799 (roughly Rs. 1,47,500) for the 256GB variant.
