Google’s forthcoming hardware line-up will be partly staggered after the company ran into supply-chain difficulties, according to reports first published by WinFuture and echoed by multiple specialist outlets. While the entire Pixel 10 range is still scheduled to be unveiled at the “Made by Google” event on 20 August, only the Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro and Pixel 10 Pro XL are now expected to reach stores and ship to customers from 28 August. The foldable Pixel 10 Pro Fold, the Pixel Watch 4 and the Pixel Buds 2a are instead pencilled in for 9 October availability, more than six weeks after their announcement. Industry sources did not detail the specific bottlenecks, describing them broadly as logistics or component-supply issues. The slip means Google’s first dust-resistant foldable, and its latest wearable, will arrive after Apple’s customary September product cycle, potentially ceding early-season sales momentum.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 is possibly the best folding phone ever made. If the Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold wants a chance of beating it, Google needs to make some essential improvements. https://t.co/T2Faso24rz
