Made by Google 2025: Here's All the Top Pixel 10 Leaks and Rumors Ahead of Launch

The new Pixel 10 line will debut on Aug. 20 at the Made by Google event, and it almost feels like we've already seen the phones revealed thanks to a plethora of rumors and presumed leaks of the handsets, which seem like they'll include both smartphones and a foldable. Google isn't hiding that the Pixel 10 is coming, as the company itself posted multiple stylized shots of the phone to promote its launch event. But the company is still keeping detailed specs and features of the Pixel 10 line to itself, so we won't get the full picture until the company's official reveal. Several recent rumors suggest a lot of new life to the phone line, though. While we do expect the Pixel line to continue the overall lineup of the Pixel 9 -- including a base Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro, Pixel 10 Pro XL and Pixel 10 Pro Fold -- rumors are pointing to significant changes to what's inside these phones to make them more feature-packed than ever. We've rounded up the biggest rumors we've found so far about the Pixel 10 line here, and will continue updating as we hear more ahead of the Aug. 20 event. Watch this: Google Pixel 10 Revealed in Promo, iOS 26 Public Beta to Open, and More | Tech Today 03:16 Pixel 10, 10 Pro and 10 Pro XL's release date, pricing and cameras Starting with the three non-folding phones in the Pixel 10 line that are getting revealed on Aug. 20, we expect the Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro and Pixel 10 Pro XL to look similar to the Pixel 9 line on the outside. This includes the same rounded camera bar on the back. The entry-level Pixel 10 will get a brand new third rear camera. While we can see the third camera in the photos Google posted of the Pixel 10, according to a chart posted by known leaker Evan Blass, this will be a 10.8-megapixel telephoto camera that will join a 48-megapixel wide-angle camera and a 13-megapixel ultrawide. This will help the Pixel 10 compare better with the base Galaxy S25, which also has a telephoto camera. The 10 Pro and 10 Pro XL will continue to be differentiated from the standard Pixel 10 with a higher-specced camera system, which includes a 50-megapixel wide-angle, 48-megapixel ultrawide and a 48-megapixel telephoto, according to the same chart posted by Blass. The colors for the Pixel 10 and Pixel 10 Pro phones also appear to have leaked, with Android Headlines reporting that the base Pixel 10 will come in Obsidian, Indigo, Frost and Lemonade editions. These names would roughly correspond to a black, blueish purple, light blue and yellow colors, respectively. The Pro models will also come in four colors, with Android Headlines reporting models named Obsidian, Porcelain, Moonstone and Jade. Those should roughly match up to black, white, gray and a light green. More photos of these phones were posted by Blass, purporting to be the Pixel 10 lineup from the front, back and side profiles Despite the concerns with tariffs, the Pixel 10 line is rumored to keep the same starting prices as the Pixel 9 line. Pixel 10 line rumored prices Phone Storage US Price Pixel 10 128GB $799 Pixel 10 256GB $899 Pixel 10 Pro 128GB $999 Pixel 10 Pro 256GB $1,099 Pixel 10 Pro 512GB $1,219 Pixel 10 Pro 1TB $1,449 Pixel 10 Pro XL 256GB $1,199 Pixel 10 Pro XL 512GB $1,319 Pixel 10 Pro XL 1TB $1,549 The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra inside of a magnetic case, with a wallet accessory attached. Celso Bulgatti/CNET Pixel 10 could support Qi2 magnetic charging The Pixel 10 series could support magnetic accessories, making it one of the few Android phones that would work with many of the MagSafe accessories that were first built to work with Apple's iPhone. That's because the Pixel 10 is rumored to fully support Qi2 wireless charging, which supports magnetic alignment and has magnets built into the phone without needing a case. An image posted by Blass appears to show a Pixel 10 with a circular wireless charger attached to the back, likely using magnets similar to how MagSafe works with the iPhone. If this is the case, it's a huge step for the Qi2 wireless standard, as the only other Android phone so far that supports magnetic accessories is the HMD Skyline. This would allow the Pixel 10 series to natively work with magnetic phone chargers, wallets, mounts and other accessories. Google might also create its own branding for this feature, as an Android Authority report claims that official Pixel 10 accessories that magnetically attach would be called PixelSnap. If this comes true, it would also make it easier to swap accessories between the iPhone and the Pixel. In addition to the iPhone's support for charging over USB-C, this would mean that MagSafe accessories first purchased to use with an iPhone should work just as well when swapping over to a Pixel 10 phone. The Pixel 9 includes the Tensor G4 processor, and its successor for the Pixel 10 is reportedly made by TSMC. James Martin/CNET Google's Tensor G5 chip Following last year's Tensor G4 chip in the Pixel 9 lineup, we presume that the Pixel 10 phones will be powered by a (supposedly named) Tensor G5 chip. We've heard a few Tensor G5 rumors, including that it will be made on an industry-standard 3nm process by chip fabricator TSMC, according to an Android Authority March report. Other rumors are less promising, like a July report from WCCFTech suggesting that while the Tensor G5 is a significant upgrade on last year's Tensor G4, a leaked benchmark test claims it will run slower than the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor that's used in Samsung's Galaxy S25 line and the OnePlus 13. That Qualcomm processor might also soon be surpassed by the next Qualcomm silicon coming at Snapdragon Summit in September. That's not to imply the phone itself will perform slowly, as the same report says it will run faster than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor that powers Whether the Tensor G5 lags behind other mobile chips isn't as worrying as it might seem, since the Tensor chips are built for Google's Pixel devices -- and those don't seem to be underperforming in daily use. As CNET Editor-at-Large Andy Lanxon said about the Tensor G4 powering the Pixel 9 Pro XL, "On the one hand, it's disappointing not to see more of a tangible improvement over the predecessor. On the other hand, it doesn't feel like it's lacking in power in any major way." The Pixel 10 Pro Fold is presumed to have a similar look to the Pixel 9 Pro Fold (pictured here), but with the newer processor. James Martin/CNET Pixel 10 Pro Fold Google on Aug. 12 released a video that shows off what the Pixel 10 Pro Fold will look like. This peek only provides a look at the phone's design -- which seems to be similar to last year's Pixel 9 Pro Fold -- saving a more detailed look at its specs and cameras for the Aug. 20 event. The more iterative design makes sense, as last year's Pixel 9 Pro Fold already debuted a larger overhaul that altered its design from the wider passport-size original Pixel Fold to a taller, narrower format similar to other foldables like the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7. One Pixel 10 Pro Fold rumor from WCCFTech only shared details about the supposed Tensor chip powering it. But a recent rumor from Blass suggests we could expect the usual upgrades: a new Tensor G5 chip, perhaps slight spec upgrades and maybe even similar camera or battery upgrades if they are announced for the Pixel 10 lineup. The Pixel 10 Pro Fold would presumably get Android 16 out of the box, but since that software upgrade has been released early (mere weeks after Google I/O 2025), last year's Pixel 9 Pro Fold already has that update. We'll keep updating this roundup as we get closer to Google's Aug. 20 event for the Pixel 10 series.

Google Messages support for remotely deleting texts you've sent now widely rolling out

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR RCS support has opened the door for some advanced messaging features, and earlier this year Google started work on a new remote-deletion option. Users are able to delete recently sent messages from the phones of recipients. After beta testing this past spring, we're now seeing the feature widely available. Who doesn't love a good do-over? Everybody makes mistakes, and we don't have nearly enough opportunities to go back and try setting things right. That's exactly why we were so hyped earlier this year to catch wind of Google Messages building support for not just deleting texts off your own screen, but using the power of RCS to remotely delete them from everyone else's screens, too. And now that support looks like it's finally widely available. Don't want to miss the best from Android Authority? Set us as a preferred source in Google Search to support us and make sure you never miss our latest exclusive reports, expert analysis, and much more. Back in February, we identified text strings developers had recently added to Messages that hinted at the forthcoming support. In addition to 'Delete for me,' the app was readying a 'Delete for everyone' option. While how well that works would depend on everyone you were communicating with also running software supporting the feature, it sounded like a great addition, especially if you're a bit of a careless texter. By May, we had finally started to see confirmation that the ability was going live, with beta testers beginning to get access. But even then, we had lingering questions about how all this would work — like if the option would be exclusive to group chats, or if it might also be available for one-on-one conversations. Rita El Khoury / Android Authority This week, we're seeing the feature generally available across all the devices and accounts we've checked. When you're communicating with someone in Messages over RCS, you'll now be able to choose between 'Delete for me' and 'Delete for everyone' after highlighting one of your messages and tapping the trash can icon. It's still probably a good idea to think twice before sending a questionable text; this tool isn't going to do anything to stop people from reading your message (and judging you for it) before you get a chance to delete it, nor will it impede their ability to snap a quick screenshot. But even those limitations aside, this is one change that we expect a whole lot of Messages users are going to be very, very happy about. Follow

Google Warns Gmail Users—Hackers Gain Access To Accounts

Google has confirmed that Gmail attacks are surging, as hackers steal passwords to gain access to accounts. This also means a surge in 'suspicious sign in prevented' emails, Google's warning that 'it recently blocked an attempt to access your account.' Attackers know this — that Gmail user concerns are heightened by security warnings, and they use this to frame their attacks. 'Sometimes hackers try to copy the 'suspicious sign in prevented' email,' Google warns, 'to steal other people's account information,' which then gives those hackers access to user accounts. If you receive this Google email warning, do not click on any link or button within the email itself. Instead, 'go to your Google Account, on the left navigation panel, click security, and on the recent security events panel, click to review security events.' If any of the events raise concerns — times or locations or devices you do not recognize — then 'on the top of the page click secure your account' to change your password. If you do click a link from within this email or any other email purporting to come from Google, you will be taken to a sign-in page that will be a malicious fake. If you enter your user name and password into that page, you risk them being stolen by hackers to hijack your account. And that will give them access to everything. This is the same risk as the recent Amazon refund scam, which texts a link for a fake Amazon refund, but which actually steals login credentials. The answer is twofold. First, never click any such link in a text message or email. And second, add passkeys to your Google, Amazon and other accounts to stop such hijacks. This exploitation of seemingly legitimate emails, messages and calls that perfectly mimic the content and style of the real thing has become an alarming theme in the last year. This also includes exploiting legitimate infrastructure to add authenticity. Beyond adding passkeys and shoring up two-factor authentication with something other than SMS, the key rule is never to use links to access accounts. Always use your app or the sign-in page you usually use in your browser. Account hijacks are painful, and while there are mechanisms to recover lost accounts, these can be time consuming and will not stop the content in your account from being stolen. It takes just seconds to secure your accounts — do that now.
