Google’s first foldable phone, the Google Pixel Fold, is scheduled to be released on June 27th, according to earlier reports, and could cost up to $1,799. However, as per the latest CNBC report, Google is planning to offer a free Google Pixel Watch with each purchase of the foldable phone. The Pixel Watch is Google’s most significant entry into the smartwatch market and was announced in October 2020. Here is a closer look at what we can expect from Google’s upcoming devices.

Google Pixel Fold’s Leaked Details

According to internal documents and images accessed by CNBC, the Pixel Fold will cost more than $1,700, as leaked earlier. The report also claims that Google will market the Pixel Fold as waterproof and pocket-sized, with a 5.8-inch cover display. Once opened, it will unfold to reveal a 7.6-inch display panel. The Pixel Fold is expected to weigh approximately 283 grams and feature a book-like shape, similar to Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 4.

The Pixel Fold is expected to have a 24-hour battery life, according to Google’s claims, and will be powered by the Tensor G2 chipset, which is also expected to power Google’s Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro phones. The same chipset could also be used in the Pixel 7a, a forthcoming budget smartphone. CNBC’s report also suggests that the Pixel Fold will last about 72 hours in low-power mode.

Google’s Gift Offer to Customers

In addition to the Pixel Fold’s impressive features, Google is aiming to attract more customers by offering a free Google Pixel Watch with every purchase of the foldable phone. The Pixel Watch is available in black, silver, and gold colors and features a 1.6-inch circular display. The Wi-Fi version of the Pixel Watch costs $349, while the LTE version costs $399.

Google Pixel 7a and Google I/O

The Google Pixel 7a will be unveiled at the Google I/O event on May 10. This upcoming budget-friendly smartphone is expected to feature a Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G processor, 6GB of RAM, and 128GB of storage. It is expected to be available in both black and white colors.

Conclusion

Google’s upcoming devices are highly anticipated in the tech industry, with the Pixel Fold and Pixel Watch being the most talked-about gadgets. While the Pixel Fold’s high price may deter some buyers, the free Pixel Watch offer could be a game-changer for customers. Additionally, the Pixel 7a, which is expected to be more affordable, is also generating a lot of interest in the budget-friendly smartphone market.
