Renders of the Pixel Fold surfaced back in November last year. Thanks to the same leaker, Jon Prosser, we now have the complete specifications of Google’s first foldable smartphone except for the battery capacity.
Earlier rumours revealed that the phone will have a battery more than other foldable phones, but will still be well below, 5,000 mAh. So, the phone will be heavier than the other foldables, including the Galaxy Fold 4 which weighs 254 grams.
