Google Pixel 10 Pro, Pro XL specs leak ahead of launch: Tensor G5, 16GB RAM, bigger battery tipped
According to information shared byAndroid Headlines, the Pixel 10 Pro series will likely bring incremental hardware improvements over the Pixel 9 Pro and 9 Pro XL. The most notable upgrade appears to be the inclusion of Google's in-house Tensor G5 chipset, which is expected to be paired with up to 16GB of RAM. Storage configurations could vary, with the Pixel 10 Pro reportedly launching in 128GB, 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB variants, while the larger Pixel 10 Pro XL may start at 256GB.
Both phones are likely to sport LTPO OLED displays with a refresh rate of up to 120Hz and a peak brightness of 3,000 nits. The Pixel 10 Pro is rumoured to feature a 6.3-inch screen, whereas the Pro XL could house a more expansive 6.8-inch display. Durability is expected to remain a priority, with Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 reportedly protecting both the front and back of the devices.
In terms of photography, Google seems to be sticking to its tried-and-tested formula. The rear camera setup is said to mirror that of the previous generation, comprising a 50MP main sensor, a 48MP ultra-wide lens, and a 48MP telephoto unit offering 5x optical zoom. Both the ultra-wide and telephoto cameras are rumoured to support macro photography. On the front, users may find an upgraded 42MP selfie camera.
Battery life could also see modest improvements. The Pixel 10 Pro is tipped to include a 4,870mAh battery, slightly larger than its predecessor's 4,700mAh unit. It may also benefit from a larger vapour chamber for improved thermal management. Meanwhile, the Pixel 10 Pro XL is expected to come with a 5,200mAh battery, potentially making it the largest battery ever fitted to a Pixel phone.
Charging speeds are also anticipated to increase. The Pixel 10 Pro is believed to support 29W wired charging, while the XL variant could offer up to 39W. Both handsets are said to support 15W wireless charging.

Academy Empower your mind, elevate your skills The Supreme Court on Monday stayed the Madras High Court 's order that allowed continuation of the proceedings on the Testbook Edu Solutions ' petition against Google India Digital Services ' updated payment policies relating to its proprietary Google Play Store A bench comprising Justices JB Pardiwala and R Mahadevan stayed the HC's June 11 order that dismissed Google 's petition filed under Order VII Rule 11 of the Civil Procedure Code, which allows a court to reject a plaint at the initial HC had dismissed Google's contention that Testbook's suit was barred under the Competition Act, 2002, and the Payment and Settlement Systems Act, 2007. The HC had held that Testbook's suit contained contractual issues that fell within its jurisdiction and could not be dismissed on the which operates over 700 mobile applications for government exam preparation, had challenged the search engine giant's Google Play Billing System and User Choice Billing, which mandate service fees ranging from 15% to 30% from application developers. Google's policies amounted to a unilateral novation of its agreement with application developers, and they were contrary to public policy and imposed undue economic duress on the developers, Testbook told the SC that the Testbook's suit was barred under the Competition Act, which expressly ousts civil jurisdiction in respect of matters within the domain of the Competition Commission of India (CCI) and the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT). Further, the allegations concerning the Payment and Settlement Systems Act are solely within the purview of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), as the sectoral regulator, it counsel Harish Salve, appearing for Google, said that the single judge of the HC held that the plaint filed by Testbook is maintainable despite the Division Bench of the same HC conclusively ruling that identical claims by other similarly placed parties were barred under Section 61 of the Competition Act, 2002, and the Payment and Settlement Systems Act, 2007.'The impugned judgment is therefore an outlier decision, rendered contrary to binding precedent, which should be corrected by the SC. It also implicates important issues of principle, including the exclusive scope of the powers of two specialist regulators: the Competition Commission of India and the Reserve Bank of India, conferred by statute. Not only are these exclusive powers important as a matter of regulatory coherence and principle, they also exist to avoid fragmented or inconsistent outcomes and floods of individual suits concerning the same contract: one which the CCI is in fact already examining in a pending investigation,' Google stated in its objected to the maintainability of the connected suits under Order Vll Rule 11 of the Code of Civil Procedure, saying the Division Bench had upheld the rejection of the connected suits filed by similarly placed mobile app developers, explicitly holding that claims stemming from allegations of abuse of dominant market position fall exclusively within the jurisdiction of the CCI and not that of the civil courts on account of Section 61 of the Competition Act.'The Testbook plaint is materially identical in its allegations, reliefs, and cause of action to these previously rejected connected suits, particularly the plaint filed by another app developer, Nasadiya Technologies,' the tech giant stated.

Sundar Pichai tells Google employees to rely more on AI than colleagues to drive productivity
Google is asking its employees to rely on AI more often — not just to build new things, but to help them work faster and smarter. Top bosses are making it clear: the new way of working is to do more with less, and AI is a big part of that. During a company-wide meeting last week, Google's CEO, Sundar Pichai, spoke about the rising expectations on teams. While building AI tools remains important, Google is also changing how teams should work — with fewer people, quicker processes, and more help from to a report by CNBC, Pichai told employees, 'Anytime you go through a period of extraordinary investment, you respond by adding a lot of headcount, right? But in this AI moment, I think we have to accomplish more by taking advantage of this transition to drive higher productivity.' This reflects what many tech companies are doing today — putting a lot of money into AI, but also asking teams to handle more work with fewer staff. CNBC adds that Alphabet, Google's parent company, plans to spend $85 billion on infrastructure in 2025. That's more than the $75 billion it was planning earlier this point was also supported by Brian Saluzzo, who heads the engineering teams that manage Google's main tech systems. Saluzzo said there's a 'real urgency' to bring AI into more everyday work, especially for Google's software developers. That includes AI tools to help them code faster, and training programmes to help workers understand AI better. Google is also promoting its internal AI tools, such as Cider — an AI-based coding helper — which, according to Saluzzo, is already used weekly by half of the people who have access to it. He also mentioned 'AI Savvy Google', a website made for Google staff that shares toolkits, lessons and courses to help them learn AI. Google has also teamed up with DeepMind to build a training course called 'Building with Gemini', which will launch shift in mindset isn't just happening at Google. Other major tech companies like Amazon, Microsoft, and Shopify are also expecting workers to use AI more often. The report also mentions that Microsoft's Julia Liuson recently told employees that 'using AI is no longer optional', while Shopify CEO Tobi Lutke said teams need to show that they can't do something with AI before they ask for more Google's total number of employees has slightly gone down from its highest point in 2023. It now has just over 187,000 full-time staff. Pichai admitted that the company's resources are tighter, saying, 'We are going to be going through a period of much higher investment, and I think we have to be frugal with our resources.'- Ends

SC stays Textbook Edu's plea against Google in billing policy case
The Supreme Court on Monday stayed a Madras High Court order that had dismissed Google India's plea against Textbook Edu Solutions. A bench of Justices JB Pardiwala and R Mahadevan was hearing Google's appeal against the Madras High Court order of June 11. The High Court had dismissed Google's request to reject a plea by Textbook Edu Solutions challenging Google's new user choice billing policy. The policy required all app developers to use its Google Play Billing System (GPBS) for all transactions, including paid app downloads and in-app purchases. The developers claimed they were charged a commission ranging between 13% and 15%. Although the High Court had dismissed 13 similar suits moved against Google in the past, it refused to reject Textbook Edu's plea, stating that it did not concern Google's superior bargaining position but rather the bilateral contracts between the parties. The High Court had also rejected Google's argument that the issue should be addressed by the Competition Commission of India (CCI).
