There are rumors circulating that Google’s upcoming Pixel Fold smartphone might bypass the Tensor G3 chipset and opt for the Tensor G4 instead. This advanced chipset is anticipated to power the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro scheduled for an October release.
If the Pixel Fold follows suit with this upgraded chipset, it might only make its debut alongside the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro. The initial Pixel Fold was unveiled at last year’s Google I/O conference in May, leading us to anticipate its successor this May. However, if these rumors hold true, the release might be delayed.
In terms of performance, Google’s Tensor chipsets haven’t been groundbreaking so far. Hence, waiting a few more months to incorporate a superior chip in the new Fold seems like a reasonable decision. Adding to the intrigue, there are reports of Google testing the Pixel Fold 2 with a substantial 16GB of RAM, surpassing any previous Pixel model.
Additionally, it boasts UFS 4.0 storage, a notable upgrade from the UFS 3.1 storage found in the original Pixel Fold. While leaks about the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro have surfaced, there’s been no information regarding the Pixel Fold, possibly hinting at the credibility of the current rumor.
