Overview

  • Preorders for the Pixel 10, 10 Pro, and 10 Pro XL are live with deliveries expected around August 28, while the Pixel 10 Pro Fold goes on sale October 9 and features IP68 protection and a 5,015mAh battery.
  • All models add PixelSnap support based on Qi2, enabling magnetic accessories and up to 15W magnetic wireless charging.
  • Google’s new TSMC-built Tensor G5 targets better efficiency and on‑device AI performance, with cross‑vendor speed comparisons awaiting independent benchmarks.
  • The base Pixel 10 gains a 5x telephoto but steps down from the Pixel 9’s larger main and high‑resolution ultrawide, as the Pro models retain the 1/1.31-inch main sensor, 48MP ultrawide, 48MP 5x telephoto, and up to 16GB RAM.
  • Pricing remains largely unchanged year over year, with gift codes and trade‑in bonuses in some markets, and the Pixel 10 Pro, Pro XL, and Pro Fold include a free one‑year Gemini Pro subscription.
