Google has proven it can make a compelling foldable, so where's the Pixel Flip?

Comparing the Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold (white) with the Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold (green).

Not everyone may be on board with foldable phones, but there's no denying that the form factor is here to stay. The foldable market has grown significantly over the years, with players emerging left and right and plenty of models to choose from. Google is already on its third foldable iteration with the rather impressive but iterative Pixel 10 Pro Fold, but it is still ignoring a rather important form factor: the flip phone.

Since using flip phones like the Motorola Razr and Samsung Galaxy Z Flip over the past few years, I've often said that Google needs to throw its own flip phone into the mix. Google apparently disagrees, and the company seems to have no interest in producing a flip phone, but I believe Pixel Flip could be a great complement to Google's smartphone lineup and leverage the growing popularity of the Pixel family in a few ways that would secure its success.
