Despite apparent similarities in form factor, Google’s proposed foldable will reportedly take a different approach.
It seems we’re one step closer to the rumored Google Pixel Fold, thanks to the discovery of a new patent by 91Mobiles (opens in new tab) which suggests the proposed foldable will differ from Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 4 in one key way.
According to diagrams included in the patent, which were submitted to the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) back in June 2021, the Pixel Fold will reportedly sport a similar form factor to the Galaxy Z Fold 4.
The images show a device with a comparable hinge mechanism and which opens up like a book to reveal a tablet-style interior display.
Where the Pixel Fold will differ, however, is that it will apparently house its interior selfie camera within a thicker-than-usual bezel surrounding the display, rather than attempt Samsung’s under-display approach.
