The Pixel 10 Series leak just took the wind out of Google’s launch event. All four flagship models showed up early in a promotional banner that slipped through the Play Store. Devices, colors, pricing hints the works. Google didn’t lose control. It handed the keys to the internet.
Every Pixel 10 Series model confirmed
Four phones. No surprises left. The leak confirmed the full Pixel 10 Series lineup: Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro, Pixel 10 Pro XL, and the Pixel 10 Pro Fold.
The base phone showed up in a sharp indigo finish, while the Pro and XL wore a silver-blue color likely branded as Moonstone. The Fold added a new pale green possibly called Jade. These aren’t minor tweaks. It’s the boldest set of Pixel colorways Google’s ever launched together.
Tucked into the promo was a $50 pre-order discount, valid through October. Clearly, Google wants people to commit early and fast.
Xiaomi has started working on Project Zhuque, a buttonless phone. What will the device to be introduced in 2025 offer?
Pixel 10 size tweaks are minor but measured
Google isn’t redesigning the wheel. Most devices stick to familiar shapes, with just a little extra thickness or weight to make room for internal improvements.
- Pixel 10 / Pro: Same height and width as Pixel 9, but about 0.1mm thicker. Both gain around 5–7 grams.
- Pixel 10 Pro XL: Footprint unchanged. Slight weight increase over last year’s XL.
- Pixel 10 Pro Fold: Bigger all around. It’s thicker, heavier, and built tougher likely to support its new water resistance.
This isn’t about shock factor. It’s about fine-tuning.
Tensor G5 defines the series upgrades
Under the hood, all Pixel 10 Series models are running Google’s new Tensor G5 chip. Unlike past versions built by Samsung, this one’s made by TSMC on a more efficient 3nm process. It should run cooler, snap photos faster, and stretch battery life a little further.
More importantly, it finally picks up a triple-lens camera setup. That includes a 50MP main sensor, ultrawide, and for the first time on a non-Pro model a dedicated telephoto lens. That’s a huge shift in Google’s camera strategy.
The Pro and XL will likely keep their same hardware from last year, but they’ll benefit from the faster chip, better display dimming, and slightly larger batteries.
Pixel 10 Pro Fold aims for serious premium status
The Fold gets the biggest overhaul. The outer display is now 6.4 inches and much brighter. The inner OLED hits 8 inches with a slick 120Hz refresh. And for the first time in Pixel foldables, it’s water resistant IP68 certified.
It’s also packing:
- A larger 5,015 mAh battery
- 23W wired and 15W wireless charging
- 16GB of RAM and up to 1TB storage
- The same triple-camera setup as before, now powered by Tensor G5
Google’s foldable doesn’t just look more polished it finally acts like it belongs in the flagship tier.
Google’s event just became a formality
The Pixel 10 Series was supposed to take center stage on August 20. But this leak stole the spotlight early and didn’t leave much on the table. Every detail, every model, and even the launch offer hit the web weeks ahead of schedule.
The phones look sharp. The specs make sense. But now, Google’s real challenge is turning a spoiled surprise into a headline product. Fast clicks cost trust.
