This consists of the identical rounded digital camera bar on the again. The entry-level Pixel 10 will get a brand new third rear digital camera. While we are able to see the third digital camera within the images Google posted of the Pixel 10, in accordance with a chart posted by identified leaker Evan Blass, this will probably be a 10.8-megapixel telephoto digital camera that can be a part of a 48-megapixel wide-angle digital camera and a 13-megapixel ultrawide. This will assist the Pixel 10 examine higher with the bottom Galaxy S25, which additionally has a telephoto digital camera.The 10 Pro and 10 Pro XL will proceed to be differentiated from the usual Pixel 10 with a higher-specced digital camera system, which features a 50-megapixel wide-angle, 48-megapixel ultrawide and a 48-megapixel telephoto, in accordance with the identical chart posted by Blass.The colours for the Pixel 10 and Pixel 10 Pro telephones additionally seem to have leaked, with Android Headlines reporting that the bottom Pixel 10 will are available obsidian, indigo, frost and lemonade editions.

The Pro fashions may even are available 4 colours, with Android Headlines reporting fashions named obsidian, porcelain, moonstone and jade. Those ought to roughly match as much as black, white, grey and a lightweight inexperienced. More images of those telephones have been posted by Blass, purporting to be the Pixel 10 lineup from the entrance, again and facet profilesDespite the considerations with tariffs, the Pixel 10 line is rumored to maintain the identical beginning costs because the Pixel 9 line.

Celso Bulgatti/CNETPixel 10 might assist Qi2 magnetic chargingThe Pixel 10 collection might assist magnetic equipment, making it one of many few Android telephones that may work with lots of the MagSafe equipment that have been first constructed to work with Apple’s iPhone. That’s as a result of the Pixel 10 is rumored to totally assist Qi2 wi-fi charging, which helps magnetic alignment and has magnets constructed into the cellphone without having a case. An picture posted by Blass seems to indicate a Pixel 10 with a round wi-fi charger connected to the again, doubtless utilizing magnets much like how MagSafe works with the iPhone. If that is the case, it is an enormous step for the Qi2 wi-fi commonplace, as the one different Android cellphone thus far that helps magnetic equipment is the HMD Skyline.This would enable the Pixel 10 collection to natively work with magnetic cellphone chargers, wallets, mounts and different equipment. Google may additionally create its personal branding for this characteristic, as an Android Authority report claims that official Pixel 10 equipment that magnetically connect could be referred to as PixelSnap.If this involves be, it could additionally make it simpler to swap equipment between the iPhone and the Pixel. In addition to the iPhone’s assist for charging over USB-C, this may imply that MagSafe equipment first bought to make use of with an iPhone ought to work simply as effectively when swapping over to a Pixel 10 cellphone. The Pixel 9 consists of the Tensor G4 processor, and its successor for the Pixel 10 is reportedly made by TSMC. James Martin/CNETGoogle’s Tensor G5 chipFollowing final yr’s Tensor G4 chip within the Pixel 9 lineup, we presume that the Pixel 10 telephones will probably be powered by a (supposedly named) Tensor G5 chip. We’ve heard a number of Tensor G5 rumors, together with that it is going to be made on an industry-standard 3nm course of by chip fabricator TSMC, in accordance with an Android Authority March report.Other rumors are much less promising, like a July report from WCCFTech suggesting that whereas the Tensor G5 is a big improve on final yr’s Tensor G4, a leaked benchmark take a look at claims it’s going to run slower than the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor that is utilized in Samsung’s Galaxy S25 line and the OnePlus 13. That Qualcomm processor may additionally quickly be surpassed by the following Qualcomm silicon coming at Snapdragon Summit in September. That’s to not suggest the cellphone itself will carry out slowly, as the identical report says it’s going to run quicker than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor that powers Whether the Tensor G5 trails different cell chips is not as worrying because it might sound because the Tensor chips are constructed for Google’s Pixel gadgets — and people aren’t underperforming in day by day use. As CNET Editor-at-Large Andy Lanxon mentioned in regards to the Tensor G4 powering the Pixel 9 Pro XL, “On the one hand, it’s disappointing not to see more of a tangible improvement over the predecessor. On the other hand, it doesn’t feel like it’s lacking in power in any major way.” The Pixel 10 Pro Fold is presumed to have an identical look to the Pixel 9 Pro Fold (pictured right here), however with the newer processor. James Martin/CNETPixel 10 Pro FoldGoogle on Aug. 12 launched a video that reveals off what the Pixel 10 Pro Fold will appear like. This peek solely offers a take a look at the cellphone’s design — which appears to be much like final yr’s Pixel 9 Pro Fold — saving a extra detailed take a look at its specs and cameras for the Aug. 20 occasion.The extra iterative design is smart, as final yr’s Pixel 9 Pro Fold already debuted a bigger overhaul that altered its design from the broader passport-size unique Pixel Fold to a taller, narrower format much like different foldables just like the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7. One Pixel 10 Pro Fold rumor from WCCFTech solely shared particulars in regards to the supposed Tensor chip powering it. But a latest rumor from Blass suggests we might count on the standard upgrades: a brand new Tensor G5 chip, maybe slight spec upgrades and possibly even comparable digital camera or battery upgrades if they’re introduced for the Pixel 10 lineup. The Pixel 10 Pro Fold would presumably get Android 16 out of the field, however as that software program improve has been launched early (mere weeks after Google I/O 2025), final yr’s Pixel 9 Pro Fold already has that replace. We’ll preserve updating this roundup as we get nearer to Google’s Aug. 20 occasion for the Pixel 10 collection.
