CNBC: Google’s Pixel Fold foldable smartphone will cost $1,700
An insider called the cost of the first foldable phone from Google and revealed its characteristics. This is reported by CNBC.
The authors of the media referred to an internal source in the corporation, according to which the US IT giant will present the first folding smartphone at the annual Google I / O developer conference. The event will take place on May 10th.
The insider said that the device appears under the code name Felix. Most likely, the device will be announced under the name Pixel Fold. The source also noted that Google will position its device as the device with the most durable folding hinge. The device will be valued at $ 1,700 or about 139 thousand rubles – the flagship will compete with the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4, which is priced at $ 1,799 in the US.
The new phone will have a 5.8-inch screen when folded and a 7.6-inch display when unfolded. The gadget will run on a proprietary Google Tensor G2 processor and have a battery rated for 72 hours in low power mode. CNBC journalists reached out to Google, but a company spokesman declined to comment.
Google has a series of Pixel smartphones. The possible release of folding devices first became known in the fall of 2021.
In mid-March, the well-known insider Roland Quandt announced that Google is ready to present its first foldable phone. According to the specialist, the company will release the smartphone for sale in June.
