Google has officially confirmed that its new Pixel 10 series will launch at the Made by Google event in New York on August 20th. This highly anticipated smartphone lineup is expected to bring several major changes.
Rumors and leaks suggest the new series will include the Pixel 10, Pixel 10 XL, Pixel 10 Pro, Pixel 10 Pro XL, and Pixel 10 Pro Fold. Although the design might not see significant alterations, it is likely to resemble the previous models.
The most notable upgrade is anticipated in the camera capabilities. The base model Pixel 10 is slated to feature a triple camera setup, incorporating a telephoto lens that was previously exclusive to the Pro models. However, reports indicate that the primary sensor will be slightly smaller than that of the Pixel 9, potentially impacting performance in low-light conditions. The Pixel 10 Pro and Pro XL are expected to retain the same camera system as previous Pro models.
Google is also introducing several new AI tools, including Speak-to-Tweak (voice-activated photo editing), Sketch-to-Image (generating photos from drawings), and a new Pixel Sense virtual assistant. Additionally, a Camera Coach feature will be incorporated, providing suggestions on angles and lighting while taking photos.
The Pixel 10 series will utilize the new Tensor G5 chipset, manufactured by TSMC on a 3nm process instead of Samsung. This is expected to enhance both performance and heat management.
According to reports, the phones might be slightly larger and heavier due to a larger battery and new Qi2 magnetic wireless charging support, a feature not previously available in the Pixel series.
The upcoming Pixel 10 Pro Fold is set to be the world’s first dust-resistant (IP68) foldable phone, preventing dust from entering the device.
Color variants will also see some changes. The Pixel 10 will be available in Indigo, Frost, and Limoncello, while the Pro models will offer Porcelain, Jade, and Moonstone shades. Overall, the Pixel 10 series focuses on camera improvements, AI features, battery life, and wireless charging. The August 20th launch is highly anticipated by tech enthusiasts.
