Today we've got confirmation of, and the design of the upcoming Google pixel fold. So the Google pixel fold is coming. And what we've known about the device for some time, many details have still been a mystery. Some Lucas suspected that the pixel fold would launch alongside the six, but of course, that didn't happen. And thankfully information is now starting to appear way back in August code was discovered in the Android 12 beater that mentioned code names for all the upcoming Google phones and the code name referred to the pixel sixes as well as another device, which was named passport.
This was most likely gonna be for the new pixel fold at given that it is an inward fold. So the code name passport makes sense. And looking at the code, it seems likely that the pixel fold at wood sport the same Google tensor chip as the six, and also share its cameras. Now it turns out that only some of that information was correct as nine to five Google this week ever manage to find more information into side the Google camera application. Now inside the new camera app, the phone is being referred to as the pixel fold 5g. But according to the data, it will not have the same camera system as the pixel six, the code reveals the main camera is gonna be a 12.2 megapixel Sony IMX 360 3, and that's gonna be supported up by another 12 megapixel Sony IMX eight six, and this is gonna be an ultra wide camera.
It reveals the two selfie cameras, which are likely to be one on the inner main display. And the other one on the outer display and both are gonna be eight megapixel, Sony IMX, 3 55 S. Now, recently Google have been granted a patent from the USA patent office for a multi access soft hinge mechanism. It was a 58 page document and it described the advanced hi system to create a minimal SEMA. When the devices folded, it described an inward folding screen, which is what Google plans to use in the Google fold. So this will no doubt be for the pixel fold 5g when it comes to the display, thanks to reliable leaker Ross young. We know that the pixel fold is gonna sport a 7.57 inch main display. And this will be a 120 Hertz LTPO display given the size of the main inner display.
We can also be pretty sure that the cover display is gonna be about 6.2 inches, and we're unsure of the exact resolutions, but given what the phone is gonna be competing with, it's likely gonna be a 120 Hertz ammo lead. There are rumors that it could also be the first phone from Google sport and Indi display selfie camera. But these are simply just rumors personally. I hope it doesn't as, for a start. They just don't produce good quality images. And secondly, if that's the case, it's starting to look identical to the Z fold three. Now, in terms of the rest of the design, there's been a few concepts floating around for the pixel fold with some based on the design of the five and the more recent ones based on the six. Now, I think it's gonna look more like pixel six in terms of its overall design and probably something like this concept video from Wacker.
Can the pixel fold 5g didn't alongside the six range leaving many to wonder when the phone will finally be launched? There's a reference in the camera app to pixel 2022 foldable. So we know that it will be coming next year. We also have Android 12 L for larger devices coming early next year. So it's seen very likely that Google is gonna debut the pixel fold along with Android 12 L, as they debut Android with the pixel, there are no solid leaks on a release date yet, but I imagine we'll be seeing the fold around March. Now, for those of you excited for the Google pixel fold 5g, though, we're now gonna run through the full specs design and the expected pricing to help you guys decide if this is the phone for you. So with the pixel fold 5g, we get a 7.6 inch main display when unfolded it's a 120 Hertz LTPO display, but the exact resolution is still unknown.
When folded up, we get a cover display, which is a 6.2 inch display. Again, the resolution is unknown, but it will be a 120 Hertz LTPO display on the pixel fold 5g. We get two selfie cameras that there's one on the cover display. And one on, on the main internal display. Now both cameras are eight megapixel wide angle cameras and where there are many rumors that the inner display is gonna be an in display selfie camera personally. I hope they're both just punch holes when it comes to the rear, we're expecting a dual camera set up, and this is gonna consist of a 12.2 megapixel primary wide angle, and then a 12 megapixel ultra wide. The phones gonna be powered by the Google tensor chipset. The same that's found in pixel six. And while it's not the most powerful chip, it's a perfectly capable one.
And it has great AI performance. The pixel fold 5g is expected to come with 12 gigabytes of Ram and the choice of 2 56 or five 12 storage. And it's all gonna be powered up by a 4,800 million power battery with 30 what, fast charging, wireless charging, and reverse wireless charging. The pixel fold 5g is gonna have an in display fingerprint scanner, Bluetooth 5.2 wifi six, and ultra wideband support. And it will, of course, ship with Android 12 LM. Now, no pricing has been leaked yet, but the pixel folds 5g is expected to start from around a hundred dollars to compete with the likes of the Z fold. So overall it's looking like a great phone and it's great to see after the new look of their recent pixels, they're continuing to make their way into the smart for market foldable devices are expected to gain more market share as the years go on. And the pixel fold 5g will be helping with this. So that's all the information we have for today, but is anything new coming in? I'll be sharing it straight away as always though, I'd like to know your thoughts down in the comments below. So who out there is excited for the pixel fold 5g.
