Google Pixel 10, 10 Pro, and 10 XL: Everything You Need to Know

Google Pixel 10, 10 Pro, and 10 XL: Everything You Need to Know

Google has officially announced its Made by Google event, set for August 20 , where the tech giant is expected to unveil its latest lineup of products. Among the most anticipated releases are the Google Pixel 10 series , Pixel Watch 4 , and possibly the Pixel Buds 2a .

According to recent reports, the upcoming Pixel 10 family will include:

  • Pixel 10
  • Pixel 10 Pro
  • Pixel 10 Pro XL
  • Pixel 10 Pro Fold

Over the past few months, numerous rumors and leaks have surfaced about the specs and features of these devices. However, it seems like the Pixel 10 series won’t be a major departure from the previous generation. Instead, Google appears to be focusing on refinements, AI enhancements, and performance upgrades .

Let’s take a closer look at what we know so far.

 

📱 Design: Evolution, Not Revolution

Fans hoping for a dramatic redesign might be disappointed — at least for now. Recent sightings of what’s believed to be a Pixel 10 prototype in Vancouver suggest that the design will remain largely similar to the Pixel 9 series .

The familiar camera bar design is still present, though some rumors suggest Google might slightly round the edges of the camera bump for better ergonomics and a more comfortable grip.

🎨 Color Options (Rumored)

Leakers have also shared potential color options for the new lineup:

  • Pixel 10 : Obsidian, Frost, Lemongrass, Indigo
  • Pixel 10 Pro & Pro XL : Obsidian, Porcelain, Moonstone, Jade
  • Pixel 10 Pro Fold : Moonstone, Jade

 

💡 Google’s Most Powerful Chip Yet: Tensor G5

At the heart of the Pixel 10 series is expected to be the Tensor G5 chipset , built using TSMC’s N3E node — the same advanced manufacturing process used for top-tier mobile chips.

Early benchmarks suggest the Tensor G5 delivers up to 36% better performance than its predecessor, the G4, and is heavily optimized for on-device AI processing .

Each model is expected to come with 16GB of RAM , and storage options could include:

  • 128GB
  • 256GB
  • 512GB
  • 1TB

 

🖥️ Display and Battery: Slight Upgrades

While most models are expected to keep similar screen sizes, the Pixel 10 Pro Fold might see a small change:

  • Cover display could increase from 6.3-inch to 6.4-inch
  • Main inner display remains at 8 inches

Brightness is also expected to improve, possibly reaching 3,000 nits , making the display more visible under direct sunlight.

As for battery life, there are rumors that the Pixel 10 Pro Fold could come with a 5,015mAh battery , which is a noticeable upgrade over the Pixel 9 Fold. Let’s hope Google also increases battery capacity in the standard and Pro models after user complaints about the Pixel 9’s battery life.

📸 Camera: AI-Powered Improvements

The Pixel 10 series is expected to keep the same general camera layout, but with AI-driven enhancements across the board.

🔍 Pixel 10 (Standard):

  • Main Camera : 50MP Samsung GN8
  • Ultra-Wide : 13MP Sony IMX712
  • Telephoto : 11MP Samsung 3J1
  • Front Camera : 11MP Samsung 3J1

🔍 Pixel 10 Pro & Pro XL:

  • Main Camera : 50MP
  • Ultra-Wide, Telephoto, and Front Camera : All 48MP sensors

🔍 Pixel 10 Pro Fold:

  • Main Camera : 48MP
  • Ultra-Wide : 10.5MP
  • Telephoto : 10.8MP with 5x zoom
  • Front Camera : Not yet confirmed

While the hardware doesn’t seem to be a huge leap, the software side is where Google is expected to shine — with new AI-powered editing tools, real-time enhancements, and improved low-light photography .

 

🧠 AI Features: The Star of the Show

With Google doubling down on AI, the Pixel 10 series is expected to be its most intelligent lineup yet .

The phones will likely ship with Android 16 (Android U) and introduce exclusive AI features like:

  • Pixel Sense : A new on-device AI assistant capable of reading and summarizing content from apps
  • Context-aware suggestions
  • Smart photo and video editing powered by Gemini Nano
  • Real-time translation and transcription

These features will likely be available across the entire Pixel 10 range, making it the most AI-integrated smartphone lineup from Google to date

 

 

💰 Pricing: Possible Increases

There’s some conflicting information about pricing:

  • Some sources, like AndroidHeadlines , suggest only the Pixel 10 Pro XL might see a price increase, while Fold models could drop in price .
  • Leaker Roland Quandt believes the entire Pixel 10 lineup may become more expensive .

If true, this could push the Pixel 10 series further into premium territory , especially with the rumored AI features and top-tier specs.

 

📝 Final Thoughts

The Google Pixel 10 series may not bring a radical redesign, but it looks set to deliver a solid upgrade in performance, AI capabilities, and camera software . With the Made by Google event just around the corner, we should have official confirmation on all these details soon.
