CTOnews.com, February 21 (Xinhua)-- after several iterations, Google seems to be close to releasing its first foldable phone sometime this year. A source told 9to5GoogleJournal Pixel Fold will be a fairly heavy device, but will also have the largest battery of foldable phones so far.

The exact size of the Pixel Fold has been leaked, and previously exposed renderings show that the machine will be most similar to the style of OPPO Find N2. The two folding machines are about the same height, both 140mm, but the Pixel will be 7mm wide, slightly less than 80mm. Another similar product is the Surface Duo, which is 5mm taller and 13.3mm wider than Pixel Fold.

In fact, the Pixel Fold can already be thought of as the weight of a small tablet, significantly heavier than the already heavy Pixel 7 Pro.

Although heavy, the Pixel Fold is much bigger than its competitors' batteries. OPPO Find N2 is 4520 Ma (typical), 9to5Google learned that the Pixel Fold battery capacity will be close to it, but still less than 5000 Ma, the exact capacity is unknown.

At present, the battery life of foldable devices has not been satisfactory, and the thinner design needed to make these devices practical often requires a compromise on battery capacity. Although there are many folding machines on the market, the ideal shape has not yet emerged, and the biggest competitive advantage of Pixel Fold may eventually be software.
