It seems the company has given up on the segment, and would rather focus on making its Pixel Folds better with every generation. However, Google is unlikely to bring a flip version of the Pixel ever, and it feels happy with the options available from its partners like Samsung and Motorola. <\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The company was quoted in a recent interview by <em>Bloomberg<\/em>, where it talks about the scope of having more tablets, why it doesn\u2019t want too many products and more.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\"><strong>End Of Pixel Tablets?<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Google Chief for devices Shakil Barkat, said it has \u2018paused\u2019 the development on Pixel tablet and cited reasons like \u2018failure\u2019 to predict a future market for these products. The executive was also quoted saying, Google does not see a market where people need more than a phone, watch, earbuds and even glasses. <\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">It doesn\u2019t have tablets in that picture, which may seem odd and contradicting to what Apple and Samsung are doing, but it does seem like a premature end of the Pixel tablet lineup.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The report also claims that Google realises the need to keep its 7 OS upgrades promise offering across categories, and having a tablet in the mix puts more pressure on its resources and investment. <\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">So, the company is happy with a lean product catalogue, where it can fully deliver on its software promise. \u201cEvery time a new type of category of product gets added, the bar on maintenance for the end user keeps going up. It\u2019s already pretty painful,&#8221; he was quoted saying in the report.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"7\" class=\"story_para_7\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\"><strong>Pixel Flip Phones Not Needed<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"8\" class=\"story_para_8\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The report also sees Google share insights around the flip phone segment, and why a Pixel model doesn\u2019t make sense. The executive confirmed that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/tech\/google-pixel-fold-10-pro-vs-samsung-galaxy-z-fold-7-price-specs-and-design-compared-ws-l-9520495.html\">Google is not working on a flip-style foldable<\/a>, and is happy to sit out that race. Having said that, it wants to be focused on making the Pixel Fold better, and get the screen crease reduced to give a seamless experience in the near future.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"9\" class=\"story_para_9\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/tech\/google-pixel-10-and-10-pro-models-announced-in-india-here-are-the-prices-ws-l-9517936.html\">Google Pixel 10 series was launched earlier this month<\/a>, including the new Pixel 10 Pro Fold model. The regular phones will be going on sale from August 28, while the Pro foldable will be available in the next few months. <\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atawrap\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atadetailwrp\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd ataname\"><span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atthumb\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"authorimg\" src=\"https:\/\/images.news18.com\/ibnlive\/uploads\/2023\/11\/aadeetya-3-2023-11-9de48efa65a9ed8ed13a8932cadb6d5a.jpg?impolicy=website&amp;width=60&amp;height=60\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"\/><\/figure>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd attitle\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/byline\/s-aadeetya-21044.html\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atamail\">S Aadeetya<\/a><\/p>\n<p>S Aadeetya, Special Correspondent at News18 Tech, accidentally got into journalism 10 years ago, and since then, has been part of established media houses covering the latest trends in technology and helping fr&#8230;<span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd aurpdebtn\">Read More<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>S Aadeetya, Special Correspondent at News18 Tech, accidentally got into journalism 10 years ago, and since then, has been part of established media houses covering the latest trends in technology and helping fr&#8230;<!-- --> <span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd aurpdebtn\">Read More<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-ff263f4b724d470d jsx-2795058133 artcta\">\n<div style=\"font-family:Inter;font-size:17px;line-height:28px\"><span data-olk-copy-source=\"MessageBody\">Get latest technology updates, including phone launches, gadget reviews, AI advancements.
