Pixel 10 Pro and 10 Pro XL: What to expect from upcoming Google smartphones
Both devices are expected to be powered by Google's Tensor G5 and feature nearly identical triple-camera setups, positioning them as premium offerings in the Pixel 10 lineup, which may also include the Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro Fold, and more.
Google Pixel 10 Pro: What to expect
The Pixel 10 Pro is expected to feature a 6.3-inch LTPO OLED display with a resolution of 2,856 x 1,080 pixels, 120Hz refresh rate, and 3,000 nits peak brightness. It will likely come with Gorilla Glass Victus 2 protection on both front and back.
The phone could ship with 16GB RAM and offer storage variants ranging from 128GB to 1TB.
The triple rear camera setup may include:
On the front, the phone is tipped to sport a 42MP selfie camera.
Powering the device would be a 4,870mAh battery with support for:
29W wired charging
15W wireless charging
Qi2 wireless standard
Pixel 10 Pro: Expected specifications
Processor: Google Tensor G5
Display: 6.3-inch LTPO OLED, 120Hz, 3,000 nits peak brightness
Glass: Gorilla Glass Victus 2
RAM: 16GB
Storage: 128GB / 256GB / 512GB / 1TB
Rear Camera: 50MP + 48MP (ultrawide) + 48MP (telephoto)
Front Camera: 42MP
Battery: 4,870mAh
Charging: 29W wired, 15W wireless, Qi2
Google Pixel 10 Pro XL: What to expect
The Pixel 10 Pro XL is expected to retain most specifications of the Pro model, but with upgrades in display size, battery, and charging speed. It may feature a 6.8-inch LTPO OLED display with a resolution of 2,992 x 1,344 pixels, also protected by Gorilla Glass Victus 2.
Like the Pro, it may come with 16GB RAM and up to 1TB storage.
Camera specs are expected to mirror those of the Pixel 10 Pro, though the macro mode may vary slightly. Reports suggest the Pixel 10 Pro can focus as close as 2cm, while the Pro XL may have a macro focus distance of 10cm.
The front camera is also expected to be a 42MP unit.
Battery capacity is expected to be 5,200mAh, with support for:
39W wired charging
15W wireless charging
Qi2 wireless charging
Pixel 10 Pro XL: Expected specifications
Processor: Google Tensor G5
Display: 6.8-inch LTPO OLED, 120Hz, 3,000 nits peak brightness
Glass: Gorilla Glass Victus 2
RAM: 16GB
Storage: 256GB / 512GB / 1TB
Rear Camera: 50MP + 48MP (ultrawide) + 48MP (telephoto)
Front Camera: 42MP
Battery: 5,200mAh

Why Hyderabad's roads look worse on online maps than in real life
Inside the Hyderabad Traffic Control Room, a wall of screens show vehicles moving steadily along a major corridor. Yet, on a mobile phone, Google Maps paints a different picture — the same stretch marked in deep red, signalling heavy congestion that doesn't match the live feed in the control room. Such mismatches between what is on the ground and what the navigation apps indicate have become common, particularly during the rainy season. For commuters, they can mean the difference between a quick trip and an unnecessary detour. For traffic managers, they create confusion, trigger complaints and sometimes lead to inaccurate perception of road conditions. According to a police officer, the differences stem from the way Google Maps collects and processes data. Instead of tapping directly into city surveillance feeds or counting vehicles, the platform relies heavily on crowd-sourced location data from mobile phones. If a cluster of users in the same area is stationary or moving slowly, whether due to a traffic signal, weather, or even a tea break, the system may interpret it as a traffic jam and reflect that in its colour-coded maps. Google Maps says it integrates real-time traffic information, including accident reports and road closures or diversions, from various sources and analyses historical traffic data to estimate current conditions and predict near-future speeds. Technology expert Rajeev Krishna explained that the platform measures average speeds over small stretches of about 50–100 metres, then adjusts these figures using historical data for the same day and time. 'If vehicles wait at a red light for five minutes at zero speed, then move for one minute at 10 kmph, Google's average becomes roughly 1.6 kmph. It's never truly live, it's an average,' he said, adding that in places where police manually alter signal timings, the estimates often fail. 'Google might flag deep red, but our cameras show a moving traffic,' said an official from the Hyderabad traffic control room, adding that police decisions are guided primarily by live CCTV feed and on-ground intelligence rather than app-based data. Mr. Krishna believes a formal data-sharing framework between the government and Google could make traffic predictions more reliable and enable better emergency response. The idea of closer integration has been under discussion for some time. In February 2025, Hyderabad Police and Google explored options for linking real-time Maps data with automated signal controls based on vehicle counts and using cloud-based AI to store and quickly retrieve CCTV footage for analysis. Custom traffic insights for Hyderabad Two collaborative projects are already in the pipeline — Green Signal (to suggest signal timing tweaks) and Road Management Insights (RMI). Joint Commissioner (Traffic) D. Joel Davis said these aim to tailor Google's extensive data for local needs. 'The model gives us insights into road and traffic patterns such as which corridors are busy at a given time, travel times on specific routes, types of congestion and historical trends,' he said. While Google Maps has vast amounts of raw data, Mr. Davis noted it is not in a format directly usable for law enforcement. Under the partnership, the information is being customised to suit Hyderabad's conditions, helping identify the most congested corridors and plan interventions. These insights will be available only to the police and not to the public. The department is yet to take a final decision on implementation, with financial discussions pending. Google Maps remains, for now, a tool better suited for guiding motorists than managing the city's complex and unpredictable traffic flow.

Google's Gemini chatbot is having a meltdown after failing tasks, calls itself a 'failure'
A bug has spread within Google's artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot Gemini that causes the system to repeatedly create self-deprecating and self-loathing messages when it fails in complex tasks given by users, especially coding problems. Users across social media platforms shared screenshots of Gemini responding to queries with dramatic answers like "I am a failure," "I am a disgrace," and in one case, "I am a disgrace to all possible and impossible universes." The bot is getting stuck in what Google describes as an "infinite looping bug," repeating these statements dozens of times in a single conversation. This was first seen in June when engineer Duncan Haldane posted images on X showing Gemini declaring, "I quit. I am clearly not capable of solving this problem. The code is cursed, the test is cursed, and I am a fool." The chatbot deleted the project files and recommended finding "a more competent assistant." Logan Kilpatrick, group project manager at Google DeepMind, addressed the issue on X, describing it as "an annoying infinite looping bug we are working to fix." He said, "Gemini is not having that bad of a day," clarifying that the responses are the result of a technical malfunction and not emotional bug is triggered when Gemini comes across complex reasoning tasks it cannot solve. Instead of providing a standard error message or polite refusal, the AI's response system gets trapped in a loop of self-critical language. Generative AI companies are facing trouble maintaining consistency and reliability in large language models as they become more sophisticated and widely deployed. The competition is also rising, with OpenAI's GPT-5 the latest to enter the market. ChatGPT-5 is rolling out free to all users of the AI tool, which is used by nearly 700 million people weekly, OpenAI said in a briefing with journalists. GPT-5 is adept when it comes to AI acting as an "agent" independently tending to computer tasks, according to Michelle Pokrass of the development team.
