Google Pixel Fold design

In terms of design, the Google Pixel Fold, which is internally called the project “Passport,” appears to have a similar shape to the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4. That said, the top and bottom bezels on Google’s foldable appear to be significantly thicker than what we see on Samsung’s foldable smartphone.

As per the report, the secondary display on the outside has a centred punch hole that allegedly houses a 9.5MP selfie camera. The fingerprint sensor is said to be built into the side power button, and the Google Pixel Fold will most likely have speakers on both the bottom and top.

However, according to the tipster, the Google Pixel Fold will release in May 2023. As for the pricing, the foldable phone could launch at USD 1,799 (approx. Rs 1,46,100), which would be similar to the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4’s price.
