• The internal layout is simplified with fewer fasteners, and every screw uses a T3 Torx Plus head.
• The teardown confirms the Tensor G5 processor and the Pixel Snap magnetic ring that enables Qi2 wireless charging.
• Google has published official repair manuals for the Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro, and Pixel 10 Pro XL.
