Exciting Changes Coming with Google’s Pixel 9 Series
Rumors suggest that Google is planning some changes for the upcoming Pixel 9 series, set to launch later this year. Insights from a “Google insider” shared with Android Authority hint at four different models, including a revamped Pixel 9 Pro Fold.
Four Models in the Lineup
The rumored quartet consists of the base Pixel 9, the Pixel 9 Pro, a new Pixel 9 Pro XL, and the aforementioned foldable device. While details about each model are limited, the presence of four options suggests they might offer similar performance, which would be welcome news for fans of Pixel Fold devices.
Challenges Faced by Previous Models
Previous versions, like the original Pixel Fold, received criticism, especially regarding performance issues linked to the Tensor G2 chipset. Users found the performance satisfactory but not outstanding, and the devices often suffered from poor battery life and overheating. With a hefty price tag of $1,800 upon release, expectations were high.
Hopes for Improvement
There was hope that the Pixel Fold 2 would tackle these issues by adopting the Tensor G3 chipset. However, details about the upcoming foldable are still pending.
Speculations About Hardware
Although specifics about hardware are scarce, there’s speculation that the next phones may incorporate the anticipated Tensor G4 chipset. It’s probable that this system on a chip (SoC) will be utilized across the Pixel 9, 9 Pro, and 9 Pro Fold models.
