Google's head of Pixel says the company is 'absolutely' thinking about use cases for foldable phones, although the company can't elaborate just yet.
Google, too, is interested in foldable phones, although you shouldn't expect to see a foldable Pixel phone anytime soon.
"I don't think that the product is quite innovative enough yet," he said in a recent interview with Business Insider."Just folding your phone, that's interesting, and turning it into a tablet, there's some incremental benefit to it, but it's not like that breakthrough thing where you say, 'Wow this is something that's very different.
Queiroz compared today's foldable phones to the mobile devices made by Palm and BlackBerry that set the stage for the modern smartphone, adding that foldable technology will be"important" for Google down the road. While there's been a lot of hype about foldable phones over the last couple of months, none of the models from large manufacturers like Samsung and Huawei appear to be ready to purchase yet. Huawei said it will release, which includes a flexible screen on its exterior that can be folded in half.
