Rumors are swirling around Google’s upcoming Pixel Fold smartphone, indicating that it may deviate from the expected Tensor G3 chipset in favor of the more advanced Tensor G4. This potential move could align the Pixel Fold’s release with that of the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro, which are anticipated to launch in October.
Initially introduced at Google I/O last year, the original Pixel Fold hinted at the possibility of a successor being unveiled this May. However, if these rumors hold true, the next iteration might be delayed to coincide with the release of the Pixel 9 series.
While Google’s Tensor chipsets haven’t set performance records, opting for the newer Tensor G4 could offer improved capabilities for the Pixel Fold. Leaks also suggest that the Pixel Fold 2 is undergoing testing with an impressive 16GB of RAM, surpassing the specifications of any previous Pixel device. Furthermore, it is rumored to feature UFS 4.0 storage, an upgrade from the original Pixel Fold’s UFS 3.1.
Despite leaks circulating about the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro, there has been a notable absence of information regarding the Pixel Fold 2, potentially corroborating today’s speculation. As anticipation builds for Google’s upcoming lineup, enthusiasts eagerly await official announcements to see how these rumors will materialize.
It remains to be seen whether the Pixel Fold will indeed feature the more advanced Tensor G4 chipset and other upgraded specifications. Google’s official announcements will provide clarity and confirm the exciting features of their highly anticipated devices.
