Google’s Pixel 9 Professional Record is Rising Like Loopy

The story of the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Professional took a wild twist on the finish of March when a brand new report and set of renders steered that Google would increase the Pixel 9 line-up to incorporate three gadgets: a Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Professional, and Pixel 9 Professional XL. This week, one other new report now claims that we will add a 4th machine, one that can fold.

The brand new report from leaker Kamila Wojciechowska takes all that we thought concerning the Pixel Fold 2 and throws it beneath a brand new identify of “Pixel 9 Professional Fold.” Sure, it’s an absurd identify and one we hope doesn’t stick, however ultimately it makes some sense that Google might carry the Fold sequence into its common naming scheme. Or does it?

Right here’s what we all know concerning the Pixel 9 Professional Fold.

In line with this new information, we imagine we’ll see a Pixel 9 (“tokay”), Pixel 9 Professional (“caiman”), Pixel 9 Professional XL (“komodo”), and Pixel 9 Professional Fold (“comet”). The identify Pixel 9 Professional Fold is seemingly a latest change from Google, as they apparently used to confer with the machine because the Pixel Fold 2, which we have been doing up till at the moment.

And nicely, this report is brief as a result of that’s all we all know. Time to invest on what this implies!

It’s possible you’ll recall with the unique Pixel Fold from final 12 months that Google launched it by way of teaser at Google I/O, solely to then ship it a few months later in restricted portions. It featured an getting old chipset, a tough design, and was then shortly forgotten about inside weeks because the Pixel 8 Professional launched with an upgraded chipset, 7 years of updates, and the entire AI.

With this subsequent Pixel Fold (or Pixel 9 Professional Fold), we imagine the machine will match the Pixel 9 sequence with a next-gen Tensor G4, in order that must also imply the same degree of help if not equivalent. By matching the Pixel 9 Professional sequence in specs and identify, that might imply a real flagship Fold with out corners lower and an actual choice for these searching for extra screens in a single machine on the degree of Google’s different greatest telephones. The unique Pixel Fold by no means got here off that manner, no less than to me, because it appeared extra prototype and launched so oddly.

However do we want 4 completely different Pixel 9 gadgets? We regularly say that we love selections, however can there be too many selections? Think about an October Pixel occasion the place we get a Pixel 9, two Pixel 9 Professional gadgets, and a Pixel 9 Fold on the similar time – wild, proper? Let’s see it, Google.
