Google Pixel Fold Q3

It is no secret that Google is near to enter the foldable smartphone market to give competition to brands like Samsung. Recently, the first Google Pixel Fold smartphone, the upcoming rival of Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4, has leaked in high-res renders that confirm its design.

A very well-known and trusted concept creator OnLeaks has collaborated with HowToSolve to present the Google Pixel Fold’s renders. The concept shows that the first generation Google Pixel Foldable smartphone has a regular Pixel phone’s iconic horizontal rear camera module with three cameras.

This device seems to have a large folded as well as unfolded display. This might be a good thing for foldable customers who mostly operate their phones in a folded pattern. But frankly, it’s not looking good at all. The device has too much width compared to its height and it looks like it’s been unnecessarily stretched.

OnLeaks also suggets the display size of this smartphone. As per the information, this device will feature a 7.69-inch inner display, a 5.79-inch cover display, and an around 158.7 x 139.7 x 5.7mm (8.3mm including rear camera bump) unfolded display.

Moreover, both displays have a selfie shooter, and none of them is under the display. The bottom of the device has a speaker grill, a USB Type-C port, and a SIM card tray. The top part of the device has another speaker grill, while the right side has the volume rocker and a power key.

Samsung’s new 5G modem fuels satellite connectivity in Google Pixel 9 series

Pixel 9 samsung modem

Google‘s Pixel 9 series is ready to introduce a significant upgrade with emergency satellite connectivity and new Samsung modem. This series aims to solve the persistent connectivity problems seen in previous Pixel models.

According to the information via AndroidAuthority, Samsung Modem 5400 will be integrated with Tensor G4 chips for the Pixel 9 series to bring significant improvements in terms of speed, power efficiency, and stability

The Pixel 9’s modem will support 5G non-terrestrial networks (NTN), which means it will enable satellite-based communication. This is particularly important for emergencies where standard network coverage is unavailable.

Moreover, this innovative feature is not exclusive to the Pixel 9. The next-generation Pixel Fold and a 5G tablet, currently under development, will also be equipped with the same modem.

One of the most notable features of this upgrade is the ability to connect with emergency services via satellite, which is crucial for users in areas without cellular coverage. To facilitate this, Google has implemented a system that guides users through a set of questions, allowing for quick communication with emergency responders. For example,

  • What happened?
  • [Are you/Are they/Is everyone] breathing?
  • In total, how many people are [missing/trapped]?
  • What best describes your situation?
  • What is on fire?
  • Are there weapons involved?

Although the release details for the 5G tablet are still unclear, the Pixel 9 series is expected to lead the way in mobile communication technology, ensuring users can remain connected in any location.

Published

on

Xiaomi MIX FOLD 4

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Z Flip 6 might not get any camera upgrades. Meanwhile, the Xiaomi MIX FOLD 4 is expected to be equipped with dual zoom camera sensors, which will leave the next Samsung Fold in the dust.

AndroidHeadlines spotted in HyperOS code that the upcoming Xiaomi MIX FOLD 4 features two telephoto cameras: a 60MP 2x camera (OV60A40) and a 10MP 5x periscope lens (S5K3K1).

Dual telephoto isn’t happening for the first time in foldable phones as vivo X Fold and X Fold Plus already offer the feature. However, dual zoom cameras are still difficult to see in regular phones and rare in foldables.

While Xiaomi is uplifting the foldable zoom camera game with MIX FOLD 4, Samsung might continue to bring a 10-megapixel 3x telephoto camera to its next-generation Galaxy Z Fold smartphones.

Apart from this, Xiaomi’s next Fold boasts a 50MP main camera (OVX8000), a 13MP ultrawide rear lens (OV13B10), and a 16MP selfie camera on each panel. The rated battery capacity and charging speed of 100W is also rumored.
