Google clearly excels at two things: making quality phones and being completely unable to keep a secret. If you thought the Google Pixel 10 Pro would surprise you, well, you're probably the last person on Earth without the internet. Breaking news: The Pixel 10 series is officially coming on August 20th, and in full. And today, it's already clear what it looks like! This is the Google Pixel 10 Pro.
Unless you happen to live in an underground cave without Wi-Fi, then you certainly know that Google is "secretly" preparing the ground for the launch of a new series these days. Pixel 10But since we live in a time when the only real secrets are our grandmothers' recipes, the design was Google Pixel 10 Pro already fully "secretly" published on the official website. Bravo, Google! If you thought Apple was bad at hiding new features, then you haven't seen this yet. Anyway - let's see what we can expect from the new Google's technological goodies.
Everything we know about the new Pixel 10 series (even though Google thinks we don't know yet):
Google will introduce four new smartphones:
- Pixel 10 (the regular Pixel, if we call it that offensively),
- Pixel 10 Pro,
- Pixel 10 Pro XL,
- Pixel 10 Pro Fold.
All four devices are said to be powered by the new chip Tensor G5, but as the saying goes: "It's not all about inner beauty," so let's first take a look at what the phones will look like on the outside.
What has Google already “secretly” revealed (read: publicly confirmed)?
Google has released a 13-second video on its multi-region online store, which first subtly shows us the number 10 (bravo for innovation, Google), then transforms into the signature Pixel camera bump, and finally reveals the beautiful back of the Pixel 10 Pro. Of course, Google still claims that it's a secret. Apparently, we all have different definitions of secret.
Exclusive offers for (overly) enthusiastic subscribers
If you're signed up for Google Store email newsletters by August 19th, you'll be in for an exclusive offer on the Pixel 10. Google will be happy to bombard you with promotional emails, and you'll probably be happy to forget you even signed up.
Specs: What do the Pixel 10 Pro and Pro XL bring?
To save you the time you'd normally spend obsessively browsing forums, let's take a look at what we currently know about the upcoming Pixel 10 Pro and Pixel 10 Pro XL.
| Google Pixel 10 Pro | Google Pixel 10 Pro XL |
|---|---|
| Tensor G5 SoC | Tensor G5 SoC |
| 6.3″ 120Hz LTPO OLED, 2,856 x 1,080 px, up to 3,000 nits (Gorilla Glass Victus 2) | 6.8″ 120Hz LTPO OLED, 2,992 x 1,344 px, up to 3,000 nits (Gorilla Glass Victus 2) |
| 16GB | 16GB |
| 128GB, 256GB, 512GB, 1TB | 256GB, 512GB, 1TB |
| 50 MP main, 48 MP ultrawide (with macro), 48 MP telephoto (with macro) | 50 MP main, 48 MP ultrawide (with macro), 48 MP telephoto (with macro) |
| 42 MP (to make you look even more beautiful than you really are) | 42 MP (for even more details in your facial expressions) |
| 4,870 mAh (29W wired, 15W wireless, Qi2) | 5,200 mAh (39W wired, 15W wireless, Qi2) |
Apparently Google still thinks 128GB of storage can survive into 2025, but at least they're offering more generous options.
Conclusion: Who needs secrets anyway?
We are clearly living in an era where smartphone manufacturers' marketing campaigns are no longer secretive, but rather strategically "unobtrusive." Nevertheless, the new Pixel 10 Pro and its family promise interesting features and capabilities that will (as always) try to impress even the most demanding tech gourmet. Of course, we will have to wait for the official presentation to finally confirm all these interesting things - unless Google reveals something "unplanned" by then.
