Google Pixel Fold Repair

Pixel Fold Repair Manual V2 [English Final Version|display=list]

The Pixel Fold is Google's first foldable smartphone and was announced at the Google I/O conference on May 10th, 2023, and released June 27th, 2023.

In addition to the foldable design, the phone offers features like 5G mmWave, 12 GB of RAM, up to 512 GB of storage, and 120 Hz HDR for both the internal and external displays. Offering IPX8 water resistance and a 4821 mAh battery, the Pixel Fold is equipped with Google's Tensor G2 chip with a Titan M2 security coprocessor.

It's priced starting at $1799.

The Google Pixel Fold can be identified by its distinct foldable form factor.

It has a long rectangular camera bump with three cameras across the top of the back case. Below the cameras in the center of the back case is the Google G logo etched in black. There is also one camera on the front screen and one on the side. The front screen is similar to other smartphones in that it covers edge to edge, while the interior screen has a thin black bezel.

It comes in porcelain and obsidian color options.

To locate the model number on the Google Pixel Fold, you will need to look at the box it came in, as it's not on the back of the phone as is the case with some devices. Another way to look up the model number is to go to system settings and follow the instructions as shown on devicefaq.com.
