The Google Pixel Fold doesn't come out until June, but that doesn't mean the company isn't looking at other types of foldable phone designs. In fact, don't be surprised if a Pixel Flip appears at some point, as the product manager for the Pixel Fold appears very open to the idea.
The benefit of a flip-style foldable is that it gives users something very compact they can slip in their pocket while also providing a full-size flagship display when they open up the phone. The other key thing is that these types of devices tend to be more affordable than the book-style foldable designs available.
