  • Google is reportedly switching to ceramics as the primary material for its future Pixel phones.
  • The future ceramic-made smartphone will supposedly be powered by a Tensor 2 chipset and feature a 2K display.
  • Rumor also has it that two of Google's future flagship phones, including its first foldable device, will be manufactured by Foxconn in China.

According to a new rumor, Google will use ceramic materials in its future phones.

According to Digital chat Station, there is a partnership between the two companies to make a phone in China. It's a bit surprising that this happened, given that the manufacturing operations were relocated to Vietnam.
