Google Pixel 10 tipped to launch on August 20 with gimbal-level stabilisation
Google's next flagship smartphones, the Pixel 10 series, are reportedly set to launch on 20 August at the company's next Made by Google event. As anticipation builds, fresh leaks have surfaced suggesting a significant boost in video stabilisation, alongside new camera capabilities.
According to a report by Android Headlines, the Pixel 10 lineup, which is expected to include the Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro, Pixel 10 Pro XL, and the Pixel 10 Pro Fold, will introduce 'heavily upgraded image stabilisation' designed to deliver performance on par with physical gimbals.
While previous Pixel models already offered effective stabilisation, this new upgrade aims to offer smoother, shake-free videos, rivalling dedicated camera hardware. Google is reportedly planning to market this enhancement as an 'Action mode', similar to what Apple introduced in recent iPhones.
This would likely involve fusing footage from the primary and ultrawide sensors in real time to reduce motion blur and jitters. If accurate, this feature could make the Pixel 10 a compelling choice for vloggers, travellers, and content creators who record on the move.
The Pixel 10 range is expected to debut with Google's upcoming Tensor G5 chipset, offering further AI and camera enhancements. The report also claims the smartphones will be available for pre-order on launch day (20 August), with general availability starting from 28 August.
While Google has not officially confirmed the event date, the August timeline would continue the company's recent tradition of late-summer hardware launches.
If these reports hold true, the Pixel 10 series could mark a significant leap forward in mobile videography, positioning itself as a top choice for users seeking flagship-level camera performance, particularly in the area of stabilised, high-quality video capture.

Samsung to start deleting inactive accounts soon: Here's how to stop it
Samsung, the South Korean tech giant, has decided to permanently delete all accounts that have been inactive for 24 months as a new move to ensure better data protection. Emails are being sent out to the IDs associated with users' Samsung accounts with a personalized date mentioned on each of them. If the user fails to take any action by the specified date, their account and all data associated with it will be permanently deleted by the company. This new 'inactive Samsung account policy' is aimed at preventing the personal data of users from being tampered with due to prolonged periods of inactivity which could increase risks of leakage. Data from your Google Account will still be secure since that is completely separate from a Samsung account. 'As per our service's policy, your data in Samsung Cloud including data stored in Smart TV, Family Hub, and Galaxy Wearable will be deleted,' the email reads. All such warning messages to intimate customers about this move will be sent before July 31. Since Samsung accounts are required to access any Galaxy device, it's fairly staple for all customers of the company to have one. If you wish to protect your data from being erased, simply log in to your account using a Galaxy device once again to inform the system that you are still an active user and wish to continue with your previous account. If you fail to do so by the date mentioned in your warning email, the company will consider that you no longer wish to receive the data stored on your previous account and delete all such material. Make sure you are still logged into the email associated with your Samsung account, otherwise you may never receive the warning mail. For those using a secondary Samsung account, the same procedure applies. If you switched to another mobile brand but wish to keep your hold account intact, make sure you log into it once before the assigned deadline.
