A new report indicates that Google won’t be releasing it’s next foldable phone as a stopgap between mainline phones. Instead, it will join the Pixel 9 lineup as the Pixel 9 Pro Fold.
The original Pixel Fold was released in 2023 between the Pixel 7 and the Pixel 8. It didn’t receive the new Tensor G3 chips and only had 3 years of Android updates versus the Pixel 8 which is the first Pixel phone with 7 years of updates. This didn't look great in comparison to the Pixel 8 which released only three months after the Fold was announced.
