Description:
A Google Pixel Fold release date rumor suggests the phone will land in late 2022 - possibly October.

FULL STORY ======================================================================

There have been whispers of a foldable Pixel which were tending to refer to as the Google Pixel Fold for now for a long time, but the big question has been when the phone would launch. Now, its looking very likely that it will land towards the end of this year.

According to Ross Young (a display supply chain expert and a leaker with a
top track record), panel production for the Google Pixel Fold will start in
Q3 of 2022 (meaning between July and September), with the phone launching in the final quarter of the year (so between October and December).

In a follow up tweet, Young got more specific, saying that the Pixel Fold
will probably launch in October . Thats when were also expecting the Pixel 7 to land, so Google could have one big launch event for both of them. It's back! Looks like Google's foldable Pixel will start panel production in Q3'22 and launch in Q4'22. February 14, 2022 See more

While wed take these claims with a pinch of salt, wed think a late 2022
launch is likely. Not only does Young have an excellent track record for leaks, but the only leak that really conflicts with this comes from Young himself, who previously claimed the Pixel Fold had probably been canceled ,
so presumably either he or Google have changed their minds.

The only other recent release date leak also points to a late 2022 launch for the Pixel Fold. Theres also a leak that points to an early 2022 launch , but that dates back to February 2021, so its working off dated information.

Plus, were in early 2022 now with not much immediate sign of the Pixel Fold, but there seems to be a consensus at least that its coming this year, so late 2022 possibly October is our best guess for now. Analysis: what else weve heard about the Google Pixel Fold

Rumors have revealed more than just potential release dates, with the Pixel Fold reportedly set to have a 7.6-inch OLED screen , a 12.2MP main camera , a 12MP ultra-wide one, two 8MP selfie cameras, a Google Tensor chipset (like
the Pixel 6 ), and 12GB of RAM.

The only one of those specs that wed really question is the Tensor, since if it does land in late 2022 then a Tensor 2 or whatever the Pixel 7 uses
would seem more appropriate, but we cant be certain of any of this yet.

The Pixel Fold might also launch as the Pixel Notepad according to one report
a name which could perhaps also hint at the presence of a stylus, though no such accessory has been leaked as yet. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 is also on the way
