Overview

  • Pixel 10, 10 Pro and 10 Pro XL are available to pre-order now and are slated to ship around August 28, while the Pixel 10 Pro Fold goes on sale October 9.
  • All four phones run the new Tensor G5 built on TSMC’s 3nm process, with early coverage highlighting performance and efficiency gains that enable more on-device Gemini features.
  • Google adds a magnetic ecosystem for the first time on mainstream Pixels via Qi2 and Pixelsnap, supporting snap-on chargers, wallets and other accessories.
  • The standard Pixel 10 gains a 5x telephoto but steps down from the Pixel 9’s larger main and higher‑resolution ultrawide sensors, whereas the Pro/Pro XL keep the bigger sensors, upgrade displays, and ship with 16GB RAM.
  • Pricing holds roughly steady year over year (Pixel 10 from $899 and Pixel 10 Pro from $999), with retailer gift cards or gift codes ($100–$200) and trade‑in bonuses up to about £/€250; Pro buyers get one year of Google AI Pro.
