Google Set to Unveil Pixel 10 Series With AI Chip and Magnetic Charging

Buyers are urged to defer current Pixel purchases until the August 20 debut unlocks Tensor G5 enhancements with potential price cuts

Overview

  • Google’s Made by Google event is scheduled for August 20 in New York City and will officially launch four Pixel 10 models, including the foldable Pixel 10 Pro Fold.
  • The Pixel 10 series will be powered by Google’s in-house Tensor G5 chip built on TSMC’s 3nm process to improve performance, battery life and thermal efficiency.
  • All Pixel 10 models are expected to support Qi2 magnetic charging and upgraded camera systems, with the standard Pixel 10 gaining a 5x telephoto lens.
  • Retail pricing for the Pixel 10 lineup will mirror the Pixel 9 series—starting at $799—while Apple’s iPhone 17 models are anticipated to carry a $50 premium.
  • New AI capabilities in Android 16 and Google’s first-party apps aim to extend on-device intelligence ahead of Apple’s delayed AI features.
