After the success of the Google Pixel 6 series, the search giant is reportedly working on a Foldable Pixel device dubbed the Google Pixel Notepad.

The Pixel Notepad is said to target a $1399 price point to offer a more affordable and attractive alternative to the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Z Fold4. Now, Ross Young from DSCC has revealed the dimensions of the outer display of the Pixel Notepad. According to Young, the upcoming Pixel Foldable will feature a smaller 5.8-inch outer display.

So unlike the Galaxy Z Fold4’s slim 6.19-inch outer screen, the Pixel foldable will likely come with a wider aspect ratio screen like the OPPO Find N. As we know, the Find N offers an almost square display when unfolded, so the Pixel Notepad is also expected to debut with a similar squarish inner screen.

So far, Google Notepad is said to run on the company’s own Tensor (GS101) chipset, coupled with up to 12GB RAM and 512GB storage. It is said to have a downgraded camera setup compared to the Pixel 6 lineup.

It will likely debut with the 12.2-megapixel Sony IMX363 primary camera sensor used on the Pixel 5. The device is also rumored to feature a 12MP ultrawide sensor on the rear and can get two 8-megapixel front camera sensors for the outer and the inner display.

A previous report revealed that Google is planning to kick off the production of the upcoming foldable in Q3 2022, so it is likely that the device will debut in Q4 2022 along with the Pixel 7 series.

After their success in the premium segment with the Pixel 6 series smartphones, Google is said to be diversifying to capture the budding foldable smartphone market. We first heard of it in January that Google is working on a foldable dubbed the Pixel Notepad which will massively undercut the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 with an attractive price tag in the $1400 range.

Now, according to a NoteBookCheck report, tipster TheGalox_ has informed that the search giant will begin production of the Pixel Notepad foldable smartphone in Q3 2020. The device will debut after the launch of the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold4 which will likely launch around August, creating a cheaper alternative in the foldable device segment for markets like the US where most Chinese companies don’t launch their products.

The tipster also states that Google remains committed to targeting the $1399 price point which is hard to fight against for Samsung as their current-gen Galaxy Z Fold3 devices go for $1799.

So far, Google Notepad is said to come powered by the company’s own Tensor (GS101) chipset, coupled with up to 12GB RAM and 512GB storage. It is said to have a downgraded camera setup compared to the Pixel 6 lineup.

The device is also revealed to come in a similar form factor to the Oppo Find N, meaning it will most likely have a square design when unfolded. The camera system of the foldable is rumored to be a downgrade compared to their current Pixel 6 series camera setup and will likely offer the same 12.2-megapixel Sony IMX363 sensor used on the Pixel 5. The device will also feature a 12MP ultrawide sensor on the rear and can get two 8-megapixel front camera sensors on each the other display and the inner display.

So far, there is no word on a launch timeline, but we can expect the device to debut in October when Google usually debuts its new Pixel smartphones.
