The company officially confirmed this.

At least it'll take it slowly.

      Is it some kind of sick Google joke? 😂 "The team felt like it should only launch devices that are good enough or better than what is out there already." Releasing on of the worst foldable in 2023 and has balls to say that 😂

        "only launch devices that are good enough or better than what is out there"

        So they settled for good enough in the end.

Oh, and their customer service department is incompetent & not helpful at all. Samsung may be leading in certain aspects, but they are most definitely not the best.

                Michael Fisher AKA Mr. Mobile is my favorite techtuber. But I'm starting to think the foldables he keeps praising are mostly a novelty. They don't bring anything new that's actually practical. Went back using my iPhone SE (2022) and it pretty much does everything my Z Flip 3 and Razr 5G can do.

                It's a gimmick. Slabs looks to rule forever.

                  The camera bump on pixel fold is better than regular pixel. Hope the pixel 8 will come with a similar camera bump.

                    this explains the pricing… r&d…
                    something that innovative companies spend on more…
                    so, how much more with more innovative companies than google?
                    we might be surprised how many prototypes not known by most people…

                                Fold is their top priced flagship so it should've debuted this year's chipset before their regular/Pro series. The regular/Pro series are the first with the latest android OS version and the fold should be the first with the latest chipset imo.

                                  Sadly they was canceled, I like of Google products

                                    This phone is too big, but I'm interested in the hingeneering. They copied the surface duo's approach by putting the hinge in the bezels. It might not be pleasing to the eye, but it could address the durability issues we see from other foldables.

                                        I think Google just testing how the Pixel Fold does first, if it sells decent, then we might have a flip model in the future.
