The Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold reportedly faces delays, will arrive after the other three models

The Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold reportedly faces delays, will arrive after the other three models

GSM Arena3 days ago
A week ago, a tipster contacted us to say that the Google Pixel 10 Pro will go on pre-order immediately after it gets unveiled on August 20. We wondered whether this time the whole family will launch simultaneously or whether some will arrive late like what happened with the Pixel 9 series.
And now we have our answer – due to some delays, the launch will be in two stages. First, the 'regular' phones will arrive on schedule – the Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro and Pixel 10 Pro XL pre-orders will start on August 20, shipping and open sales will start on August 28.

However, the Pixel 10 Pro Fold will arrive later, along with the Pixel Watch 4 and Pixel Buds 2a, according to sources speaking to WinFuture. These will be available from October 9, around two weeks after the non-folding Pixel 10 trio launches. Pre-orders will likely start on August 20, though.

It's not clear what caused the delay – supply chain speed bumps may be the issue, but we just don't know. The Fold shares some components with the rest of its Pixel 10 siblings, like the Tensor G5, for example. That said, there are some things that could have caused headaches – like the first-ever IP68 rating on a foldable. The 10 Pro Fold will also have a bigger battery and a new 6.4' cover display. We won't even guess what might have gone wrong with the Pixel Watch 4 and new affordable TWS buds.

Weekly deals roundup: Get your new record high Pixel 9a, 9 Pro Fold, and iPad Air (2025) discounts!

One of the biggest mobile product launch events of the summer (possibly even the entire year) is right around the corner, and all you professional bargain hunters out there know exactly what that means. Yes, a lot of Google's amazing existing devices are on sale at huge discounts ahead of the Pixel 10 family's official announcement, but of course, that's not all our latest weekly deals roundup is about. I also got plenty of hugely popular Samsung Galaxy handsets and tablets to recommend at very special prices today, as well as some of the best iPads around, a slew of excellent new Motorola phones, probably the greatest smartwatches money can buy right now, and more. 5G, Unlocked, 128GB Storage, 8GB RAM, 6.3-Inch P-OLED Screen with 2424 x 1080 Pixel Resolution and 120Hz Refresh Rate Technology, Google Tensor G4 Processor, Android 15, Google Gemini, 48 + 13MP Dual Rear-Facing Camera System, 13MP Front-Facing Camera, 5,100mAh Battery, 23W Charging Capabilities, Four Color Options Buy at Amazon 128GB Storage, Wi-Fi Only, Apple M3 Processor, Liquid Retina IPS LCD Screen with 2360 x 1640 Pixel Resolution, 12MP Rear-Facing Camera, 12MP Front-Facing Camera, Top-Mounted Fingerprint Scanner, All-Day Battery Life, Landscape Stereo Speakers, Two Microphones, USB Type-C Port, Multiple Color Options Buy at Amazon 5G, Unlocked, 256GB Storage, 16GB RAM, Google Tensor G4 Processor, Android 15, Gemini, 8-Inch Foldable LTPO OLED Display with 2152 x 2076 Pixel Resolution and 120Hz Refresh Rate Technology, 6.3-Inch OLED Cover Screen with 2424 x 1080 Pixel Resolution and 120Hz Refresh Rate, 48 + 10.8 + 10.5MP Triple Rear-Facing Camera System, 10MP Front-Facing Camera, 10MP Cover Camera, 4,650mAh Battery, Obsidian Color Buy at Amazon That's right, you're looking at three unprecedented deals here... with no special requirements and no strings attached.

But that's why it's so much cheaper. The Motorola Edge (2025), meanwhile, is a bit costlier, but also unquestionably prettier and equipped with 256 gigs of internal storage space as standard. Of course, if you want a good-looking phone with extraordinary specs at a reasonable price, the OnePlus 13R powerhouse is the way to go. And then there's the "vanilla" Pixel 9 for those hardcore Google fans on relatively tight budgets who don't want to settle for the 9a, as well as four, count'em, four top-notch alternatives to the Pixel 9 Pro Fold from Motorola and Samsung.

The Lenovo Idea Tab Pro and iPad mini (2024) aren't exactly prohibitively priced for the masses either, especially if you consider their very nice designs and reasonably snappy processors. At the other end of the spectrum, the Galaxy Tab S10 Plus is sure costly, and unless you're the world's most devoted Samsung fan, you should probably snub the 12.4-inch Android giant in favor of Apple's cheaper-than-ever 13-inch iPad Air (2025). The Lenovo Legion Tab Gen 3 and Yoga Tab Plus, meanwhile, are not dirt-cheap or super-expensive, undeniably offering very good value for their newly reduced prices between the ridiculously smooth screen of the former model and the two convenient accessories bundled with the latter device as standard. GPS, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Circular LTPO AMOLED Display with 320 ppi Density and Up to 2,000 Nits Brightness, Snapdragon W5 Gen 1 Processor, 32GB Storage, 2GB RAM, Heart Rate Monitor, Sleep Tracking, Blood Oxygen Sensor, ECG, Skin Temperature Sensor, Built-in Speaker and Microphone, IP68 Water and Dust Resistance, Up to 36 Hours of Battery Life, Multiple Color Options Buy at Amazon GPS, Bluetooth, LTPO3 OLED Always-On Retina Display with Up to 2000 Nits Brightness, ECG, High and Low Heart Rate Notifications, Sleep Tracking, Sleep Apnea Notifications, Temperature Sensing, Cycle Tracking, Emergency SOS, Fall Detection, Crash Detection, Water Resistant Up to 50 Meters, Swimproof, Depth Gauge, S10 Processor, Double Tap Gesture, Up to 18 Hours of Battery Life, Faster Charging, Aluminum Case, Multiple Color and Band Options Buy at Amazon 40mm, GPS, Bluetooth, One UI 8, Cushion Design, 1.34-Inch Super AMOLED Touchscreen with 438 x 438 Pixel Resolution and Up to 3000 Nits Brightness, 3nm-Based Exynos W1000 Processor, ECG, Blood Pressure Sensor, Fall Detection, Advanced Sleep Coaching, Energy Score, Vascular Load, Antioxidant Index, Galaxy AI, Armor Aluminum Frame, Graphite and Silver Color Options, US Version, Two-Year Warranty, Free $50 Promotional Credit Included Buy at Amazon GPS, Bluetooth, Cellular Connectivity, Always-On Retina Display with Up to 3000 Nits of Brightness, Apple S9 Processor, 1000m Water Resistance, Double Tap Gesture, ECG, Blood Oxygen Sensor, Sleep Apnea Detection, High and Low Heart Rate Notifications, Irregular Rhythm Alerts, Temperature Sensing, Fall Detection, Crash Detection, Siren, Up to 36 Hours of Battery Life, 49mm Titanium Case, Multiple Band, Size, and Color Options Buy at Amazon If so, I've got four such products for you to choose from. Yes, we've all seen these deals before, but that doesn't make the Pixel Watch 3 and Samsung's just-released Galaxy Watch 8 any less compelling for Android smartphone users and the Apple Watch Series 10 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 any easier to rival as far as iPhone owners are concerned. Do you want my honest advice? Go for the super-affordable Pixel Watch 3 before Google discontinues it to make room for a largely unchanged (but almost certainly costlier) Pixel Watch 4! True Wireless Earbuds with Active Noise Cancellation, Transparency Mode, Spatial Audio, IPX4 Water Resistance, Class 1 Bluetooth, Up to 9 Hours of Uninterrupted Music Listening, 36 Hours of Combined Battery Life, Pocket-Sized Charging Case with USB-C Connector, Four Color Options Buy at Amazon True Wireless Earbuds with Active Noise Cancellation, Apple H2 Chip, Adaptive Transparency, Personalized Spatial Audio, Hearing Aid Feature, USB-C MagSafe Charging Case, Up to 30 Hours of Battery Life, IPX4 Water Resistance, White Buy at Amazon True Wireless Earbuds with Secure Fit Earhooks, Active Noise Cancellation, Personalized Spatial Audio with Dynamic Head Tracking, Transparency Mode, Adaptive EQ, Apple H2 Chip, Heart Rate Monitoring for Workouts, IPX4 Water Resistance, Up to 10 Hours of Uninterrupted Listening Time, Up to 45 Hours of Total Battery Life with Wireless Charging Case, Android and iOS Compatibility, Four Color Options Buy at Amazon Once again, we're not exactly looking at first-of-a-kind promotions here, but sooner or later, the AirPods Pro 2 will get a sequel, and you might end up regretting these money-saving opportunities. The Beats Studio Buds Plus and Powerbeats Pro 2 are likely in no such danger of being replaced anytime soon, but their bang for your buck is still pretty mind-blowing at their massively reduced prices. Especially the heart rate-monitoring Powerbeats Pro 2!

Just when you thought you knew it all, the latest Pixel Watch 4 leak reveals more

In just a few days – August 20 to be exact – Google will officially unveil the Pixel 10 series and the new Pixel Watch 4. But at this point, the event might feel more like a confirmation than a reveal. Pretty much every detail has already leaked, and now we've got yet another one that fills in even more of the newest leak gives us almost a full breakdown of what to expect from the Pixel Watch 4 , and it is indeed looking like a solid step up from the Pixel Watch 3. — Evan Blass (@evleaks) August 8, 2025 According to the leaked materials, the Pixel Watch 4 will again come in two sizes: 45mm and 41mm. And unsurprisingly, the color options will apparently depend on which size you pick. The smaller 41mm version will have one additional choice in Light Green, something we have already seen in previous leaks. Both versions will pack Google's Actua 360 display, with a peak brightness of up to 3,000 nits – way brighter than the Pixel Watch 3 , which should make it a lot easier to see outdoors. Battery life is getting a bit of a boost this time around, too. Earlier leaks hinted at about a 7% increase for the 41mm and 9% for the 45mm version – not huge jumps, but definitely a nice upgrade. This latest spec sheet confirms the 41mm can run up to 30 hours, while the 45mm stretches up to 40 hours, even with the always-on display active. Plus, charging speeds are improving too, with the new Quick Charge Dock promising about 25% faster power-ups compared to before. Leaked materials related to the upcoming Pixel Watch 4 . | Image credit – Evan Blass The standout feature of the new Pixel Watch 4 has to be its powerful Gemini AI integration. You will be able to just raise your wrist and talk to Gemini for AI-powered assistance, personalized help and even AI-generated text suggestions that mimic your style. Gemini will also work across different wearable apps, much like it does on Pixel phones, making it far more useful for productivity. Already sound familiar? Yeah, Samsung's Galaxy Watch 8 already rocks Gemini too, letting you say 'Hey, Google' and get quick summaries or answers on the fly. Now, moving on. On the safety side, the Pixel Watch 4 includes features like pulse loss detection that can automatically call 911, alerts to loved ones if you are feeling unsafe, and fall detection that can connect you to emergency services – similar to the Apple Watch. Some of these features are already on the current Pixel Watch and they are definitely worth having. When it comes to health and fitness, the Pixel Watch 4 offers over 40 workout modes with real-time stats and insights and this is plenty for sure. It can tell you whether your body is ready for an intense session or if you should focus on recovery, plus it can create custom running plans with live coaching. The leaked images also confirm support for ECG, SPO2, breathing rate and heart rate variability measurements. And for those going with the LTE version, Google is apparently throwing in two years of free LTE data via Google Fi Wireless, which sounds like a pretty nice deal. Bottom line: between the brighter display, longer battery life, safety upgrades and the deeper Gemini integration, the Pixel Watch 4 is shaping up to be a big upgrade over the current Pixel Watch 3 . Like I've said before – now is probably not the best time to buy the Pixel Watch 3 . The new one is just around the corner and it is looking worth the wait (especially since the wait won't be long).

The real reason AT&T's return-to-office rules are causing tension at work

What is wrong with AT&T is what Redditors ask themselves in a heated discussion – and this time, it's not about connectivity issues, 5G dead zones, or plan price hikes. Instead, the discussion revolves around the way the corporate head treats its employee body. As you may've heard, the AT&T CEO John Stankey recently sent a memo about "being disruptive" and, among other things, he told managers that some employees' views don't match the company's goals. He said workers need to follow the return-to-office policy or consider leaving. Over 99,000 AT&T employees (about 73% of the workforce) responded to a survey earlier. While most said they felt engaged, the company used the results to identify those not aligned with its direction. – AT&T CEO John Stankey in a memo sent to AT&T employees first obtained by Business Insider, August 2023 This memo got emotions boiling and while some industry insiders say that workplace loyalty is finally dead, others took it to Reddit to voice their frustration: Source – Reddit Some have expressed concerns about the way AT&T 's RTO policy is being enforced and the overall work environment. As a matter of fact, AT&T 's five-day return-to-office rollout was off to a rough start in January 2025, with employees reporting overcrowded offices, limited parking, and long elevator wait times – especially at the Atlanta location. Many say they now arrive as early as 6 a.m. just to find a desk, with some ending up in dining areas or conference rooms. Internal documents show AT&T knowingly assigned more employees than desks, assuming not everyone would show up daily. Personalizing desks is banned, and any items left behind are removed. Some employees believe the push away from hybrid work is less about collaboration and more about cutting costs and encouraging Redditor even comes up with a list capturing the main issues: Ignored feedback Forced relocations No advancement Offshoring jobs Broken systems Widespread disengagement The way they put it, some feel that the company's leadership is not listening to employee feedback and is shifting blame onto workers rather than addressing deeper issues. These include a lack of open communication, limited career growth, and morale damage caused by quiet layoffs and forced are also frustrations about perceived outsourcing of jobs overseas, and some employees feel that these changes are weakening internal operations and long-term stability. As a result, disengagement appears to be growing, with some employees reporting that basic collaboration and communication within teams have become increasingly some feel the company's internal systems are showing signs of serious strain. With many experienced staff gone, key processes are reportedly left unsupported, leading to growing inefficiencies across teams. The major service outage last year is seen by some as a warning sign of deeper structural issues. As you probably remember, on February 22, 2024, a major AT&T outage disrupted service for 12 hours, affecting over 125 million devices, blocking more than 92 million voice calls, and obstructing over 25,000 emergency 911 calls.
