ComputerBase Review Finds Pixel 10 Leads in Practical AI but Lags in Raw Power and Value

ComputerBase calls the Pixel 10 Pro the sweet spot, citing Tensor G5, Android 16, and seven-year updates.

Overview

  • Reviewers say Google delivers the most comprehensive consumer AI on phones to date, with many Gemini features running on-device and others in the cloud.
  • Tensor G5 marks a solid step over G4 and moves to TSMC fabrication, yet it trails Apple and Qualcomm chips, with the tested GPU roughly half as fast as Snapdragon 8 Elite.
  • All models adopt triple rear cameras, but larger sensors and stronger low‑light, zoom and ultra‑wide results are confined to the Pixel 10 Pro.
  • Battery life is described as satisfactory at roughly a day, stretching into a light second day, whereas camera‑heavy or gaming use typically limits runtime to one day.
  • Launch pricing faces tough competition, with rivals like Galaxy S25 Ultra at about €895, Xiaomi 15 Ultra at €1,064 and iPhone 16 Pro at €987 undercutting comparable Pixel 10 configurations.
