On Using the Pixel Fold in 2026 shows how much Google got right, and why it failed ·
The Pixel Fold was a result of the work that Google did with Microsoft and their Surface Duo. Microsoft worked with Google to load Android on as the OS for the phone. It was a failed effort on Microsoft's part but Google got the design concepts and improved the form factor that Microsoft created significantly. I was at Microsoft when this happened and you could see the collab going on. Lot's of Google execs were sporting Surface Duo's and photos were shared internally at Microsoft.
