Hwang expressed the team’s focus on delivering the best overall device, aiming to provide users with the ultimate foldable phone experience. This involved redesigning components such as the cameras to suit the new form factor.
Google claims that the Pixel Fold features the most durable hinge among foldable devices, backed by extensive testing. The outer display was designed to offer a phone-like experience, allowing users to access the full 7.6-inch display only when necessary.
Regarding Google’s delay compared to Samsung in entering the foldable market, Hwang cited the challenge of aligning hardware, software, and apps seamlessly. From initial impressions, it appears that Google has successfully struck the right balance with the Pixel Fold.
