Google Pixel 10 series launching on August 20, here is everything we know about it
Google has confirmed that its next big hardware showcase is just weeks away, and the Pixel 10 series is front and centre. The company has already revealed an official image of one of the new phones, giving us a glimpse of a fresh blue-grey shade, but, as always, the leaks and rumours have done most of the heavy an expanded line-up and new camera tricks to a new chipset and a splash of unexpected colour, here's everything we know so far about the Pixel 10 series ahead of its August Pixel 10 launchThe next Made by Google event will take place in New York on August 20, with the company promising 'the latest on our Pixel phones, watches, buds, and more.' The only confirmed hardware detail? At least one phone in the Pixel 10 family will stick closely to the Pixel 9 Pro's design, right down to the trademark camera bar and the built-in temperature sensor. Everything else, from specs to model names, comes courtesy of the leaks. If the reports are right, we'll be getting four phones this time: the standard Pixel 10, the 10 Pro, a bigger 10 Pro XL, and the second-generation foldable, the 10 Pro Fold. If leaked renders from Android Headlines are accurate, Google is having some fun with colours this the regular Pixel 10, the palette is bold and playful: the usual 'Obsidian' black will be joined by a deep Indigo, a frosty pale blue, and a zingy lime-green called Limoncello. The Pro models play it safer, sticking to muted tones like Porcelain, Jade, and Moonstone alongside the classic black. Credit: Android Authority Curiously, the foldable model ditches black entirely. Instead, the Pixel 10 Pro Fold is expected to launch only in 'Moonstone' and 'Jade'.Google Pixel 10: CamerasThe big twist? Even the entry-level Pixel 10 is finally getting three cameras on the back, wide, ultrawide, and a telephoto don't get too carried away. To squeeze in that telephoto without bumping up the price, Google has apparently opted for smaller, less capable main and ultrawide sensors. According to Android Authority, they'll be the same sensors used in the Pixel 9a. So, while you gain a zoom lens, you may lose a bit of low-light performance. Google Pixel 10 (Credit: X/ @evleaks) The Pro models, by comparison, stick with the bigger, better hardware from the Pixel 9 Pro, so expect a noticeable gap in image quality. The 10 Pro Fold's cameras are rumoured to be a mix: similar sensors to the base Pixel 10 for main and telephoto, but with an upgrade over the Fold's last Pixel 10: ProcessorEvery year brings a faster processor, but this year the upgrade sounds like a real Tensor G5 chip is said to be moving away from Samsung's manufacturing process and over to TSMC, using the same 3nm tech that Apple relies on for the iPhone 16 Pro's A18 Pro chip. Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold (Credit: X/ @evleaks) Combined with a revised core layout, that could mean a noticeable boost in performance and efficiency, helping Pixel phones close the gap with Apple and Qualcomm-powered Pixel 10: AI everywhereOf course, it wouldn't be a Pixel launch without some AI. Google is reportedly preparing new tools like Speak-to-Tweak, which would let you edit photos with just your voice, and Sketch-to-Image, which turns your doodles into AI-generated also a new virtual assistant on the way called Pixel Sense. Previously rumoured to be called Pixie, this on-device AI will pull data from across your Google apps to anticipate what you want, offer suggestions before you ask, and carry out tasks without sending everything to the Pixel 10 India price and launchGoogle hasn't yet revealed prices or detailed features for the upcoming Pixel 10 range, but early speculation suggests the new models may be priced in line with their predecessors. The standard Pixel 10 is expected to start at around Rs 79,999 in India, with the Pixel 10 Pro likely to come in close to Rs 99, larger Pixel 10 Pro XL could see a modest bump, potentially crossing the Rs 1,02,000 mark. Interestingly, the Pixel 10 Pro Fold is rumoured to be more affordable this year, with a possible launch price of roughly Rs 1,36,500, a significant drop from last year's Rs 1,72,999 price tag.- Ends

Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold could beat the Galaxy Z Fold 7 in 2 big ways
Now that Samsung has unveiled the Galaxy Z Fold 7, complete with a host of different upgrades, our eyes now turn to the Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold. While it's not expected to be unveiled until late next month, recent leaks have given us an idea of what to expect from Google's incoming foldable. The short version is that the Pixel 10 Pro Fold has some major upgrades that could give it a serious advantage over the Z Fold 7. But at the same time, it seems as though it may fall into one of the same pitfalls as past Google foldables — which would give Samsung's new foldable design a major win. Specifically the 10 Pro Fold is rumored to come with a larger battery and the best IP rating we've seen on a foldable thus far. But the Z Fold 7's new lightweight design could mean that all of that is completely moot in the eyes of the consumer. Outside of China, the foldable market has long been dominated by Samsung and the Galaxy Z series. It's far from the only company offering foldable phone tech, but for the past several years foldable and Samsung have been practically joined at the hip. It's only been recently that rivals like Google and OnePlus have come on the scene to try and earn the crown of best foldable phone for themselves. OnePlus arguably succeeded with its big screens and second-to-none multitasking, but Google has always lagged behind a little bit. A couple of those rumored specs could put the ball back in Samsung's court. The first is the reported 5,015 mAh battery in the 10 Pro Fold. Not only is that almost 8% larger than the 4,650 mAh battery in the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, it's 13% larger than the 4,400 mAh power cell inside the Z Fold 7. On paper, that makes Google's foldable look rather good. There's more to battery life than bigger batteries of course — anyone that's used a Pixel phone in the past nine years can tell you that for certain. The fact that the original Pixel Fold's battery life was over an hour shorter than the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, despite having 172 mAh more battery capacity is testament to that. A whole bunch of factors come into play, including the power efficiency of the chipset and other hardware. Since the Snapdragon 8 Elite is supposed to be the most energy efficient Qualcomm chipset so far, the Z Fold 7's 4,400 mAh should stretch quite far. Especially compared to Google and Tensor's reputation for tanking battery life. Offering an IP68 rating is also a pretty big deal, assuming it actually happens. While there's no shortage of foldable phones that have an 8 rating for water resistance, few offer much in the way of dust resistance. The Pixel 9 Pro Fold didn't actually have a dust resistance score, while the likes of the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Motorola Razr Ultra are stuck at 4 out of a possible 6. While we've heard speculation about future foldables getting an IP68 rating, it hasn't actually happened yet. All the moving parts in a foldable phone make it quite hard to offer a seal that can protect everything from stray dust particles. It may not be the kind of thing that sells phones, especially with $1,800 price tags, but it would be an incredible achievement if Google can actually pull it off. When it comes to desirability, the actual design of the phone plays a very big part. Crucially the Galaxy Z Fold 7 has had the kind of redesign that makes it more attractive, shedding some ounces off the weight and almost 1.5mm off the total thickness compared to the Z Fold 6. It's impressive considering the Z Fold 6 was already noticeably thinner and lighter than the Z Fold 5. In fact, in our Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 hands-on, we noted that the phone might be the first foldable that doesn't actually feel like you're lugging around a foldable phone. While I haven't used the Z Fold 7 in person, I can clearly see in some of our hands-on photos that it's barely thicker than the USB-C charging port. So there's only so much more thickness Samsung can shave off future iterations. In comparison, past Google Foldables are rather chunky beasts. The Pixel 9 Pro Fold isn't quite as bad as the original Pixel Fold, and its 5.1mm unfolded thickness means it's actually thinner than the Z Fold 6. But it's still thicker and heavier than the 4.6mm/7.5 ounce Galaxy Z Fold 7. The recent specs leak didn't mention anything about size or weight, only that the 10 Pro Fold's larger screen was a result of thinner bezels rather than a larger frame. I got the impression that this meant the actual dimensions of the phone weren't changing. Plus, considering batteries are often the first thing to be reduced to accommodate thinner designs, it feels like adding a bigger battery to the 10 Pro Fold won't coincide with a more streamlined design. If that's the case, and the 10 Pro Fold looks nearly identical to its predecessor, it gives Samsung a very strong advantage. As great as bigger batteries are, and how important it is for phones to be as durable as possible, they're not always the kind of things consumers focus on compared to aesthetics. If practicality and longevity were all people cared about, we'd all be carrying around enormous brick-looking phones that last a whole week before they need recharging. Samsung has shown that it understands how to make a good-looking phone, and there's no denying that the Z Fold 7 is an attractive device. Whether it can match its good looks with solid performance is still not quite certain, but it won't be long before we find out for sure.

Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold specs leak in full — here's what to expect
It wouldn't be a Google Pixel launch if we got to launch day without a near-complete list of everything to expect from the phone. Google's mobile division seems to be as secure as an open window, and now it looks like the Pixel 10 Pro Fold specs have leaked online. The specs come from Android Headlines, who have fast developed a reputation for accurate Pixel leaks. While there's no guarantee these specs are totally accurate, it could give us an idea of what to expect from Google's upcoming foldable. The site claims that the 10 Pro Fold will be increasing the size of the cover display from 6.3-inches to 6.4-inches. However this is apparently down to Google slimming down the size of the bezel and hinge, rather than actually making the phone bigger. That cover screen will also reportedly jump to 3,000 nits of brightness. That's roughly 10% more than the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, and the same as the Super Actua Display on Pixel 9 Pro. The camera will apparently be staying mostly the same. So expect a 10 Pro Fold to come with a 48MP main camera, 10.5MP ultrawide and a 10.8MP telephoto with 5x optical zoom. The selfie cameras are reportedly sticking at 10MP on both internal and external screens. Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold (rumored) Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold Cover Display 6.4-inch OLED 6.3-inch OLED Inner Display 8-inch OLED 8-inch OLED Refresh Rate 120 Hz 120 Hz Chipset Tensor G5 Tensor G4 RAM 16GB 16GB Storage 256GB/512GB/1TB 256GB/512GB Cameras 48MP (main), 10.8MP (ultrawide), 10.5MP (5x telephoto), 10MP (selfie) 48MP (main), 10.8MP (ultrawide), 10.5MP (5x telephoto), 10MP (selfie) Battery 5,015 mAh 4,650 mAh Charging 23W (wired), 15W (Qi2) 21W (wired), 8W (Qi) IP Rating IP68 IPX8 The battery will apparently grow to 5,015 mAh, a 7% increase, with charging speeds set to jump to 23W wired and 15W Qi2 wireless charging speeds. Naturally the whole thing will be powered by the 3nm Tensor G5 chipset. Top that off with 16GB of RAM, and a choice of 265GB, 512GB or 1TB storage options. It's also claimed that the 10 Pro Fold will come with an IP68 water and dust resistance rating — the first foldable to do so. While we're no stranger to foldables with high water resistance, like the IP48 Galaxy Z Fold 7, foldables typically fall short of their non-folding counterparts in keeping out dust. Apparently Google is going to change that with the highest dust resistance rating currently available. We're closing in on the Pixel 10 launch event now, with rumors suggesting the new phones could launch on August 20. Nothing has been confirmed by Google just yet, but since that date is just over 5 weeks away it's likely we'll find out for sure in the next couple of weeks. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. Until then be sure to check out our Pixel 10 Pro hub for all the latest news and rumors on the upcoming devices.

Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold leak says it will have IP68 rating before Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 July 9 launch
We are less than a month away from the launch of Google's Pixel 10 series, but that hasn't stopped the rumour mill from giving us a fair idea of what to expect from the upcoming devices. Yes, devices — as four phones are expected to launch in the series: Pixel 10, 10 Pro, 10 Pro XL, and 10 Pro Fold. In the latest development, details about the Pixel 10 Pro Fold's durability have surfaced. Back in March, an Android Headlines report gave us our first look at how the phone might look. And now, information related to the phone's hinge and durability has to a new report by Android Headlines, the Pixel 10 Pro Fold is said to feature a thinner hinge. A thinner hinge, in turn, would allow Google to reduce the bezel size and fit in a larger display compared to the current 6.3-inch panel on the Pixel 9 Pro Fold. The report suggests that the 10 Pro Fold will come with a 6.4-inch cover screen. For context, this would make it 0.1-inch larger than what we see on the Pixel 9, 9 Pro, 9 Pro Fold, and even the upcoming Pixel 10 and 10 Pro — both of which are rumoured to feature 6.3-inch it's not just the cover screen that may get a size bump due to the thinner hinge. The overall footprint of the phone is also expected to be slimmer. While the renders of the Pixel 10 Pro Fold show a design strikingly similar to the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, the actual dimensions could be slightly different, if these leaks are to be believed. For reference, the Pixel 9 Pro is just 5.4mm thick when unfolded and 10.5mm when folded, with a weight of 257 grams. Based on the leaks, the Pixel 10 Pro Fold could be slimmer and lighter than its As for durability, the report also mentions that the Pixel 10 Pro Fold may come with an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance. Now, this might not sound like a big deal, considering most candybar-style phones — whether flagship or mid-range — have had IP68 ratings for a while. But foldables haven't quite reached that level. In fact, the best dust and water resistance rating on any foldable today is on Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6, which feature an IP48 rating. The '4' in IP48 means that Samsung's foldables are protected from dust particles larger than IP68 rating, however, would mean protection against dust as well as water immersion in up to 1.5 metres of water for 30 minutes — putting it on par with standard flagship phones like the Galaxy S25 Ultra and iPhone 16 said, while it all sounds promising — that the Pixel 10 Pro Fold may gain an IP68 rating — rumours suggest Samsung may beat Google to the punch, as the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 7 is also expected to feature an IP68 rating. Whether that happens or not remains to be Google Pixel 10 series is set to be unveiled on August 28, followed by an announcement on August 20.- Ends

Google Pixel 10 Series Leak Suggests We Could Have Brighter Colours This Year: Know More
Last Updated: Google Pixel 10 launch is expected in August and the new leak suggests the flagship models could have some brighter shades this year. Google Pixel 10 series launch is expected around August this year so it is hardly surprising that first leaks of the new flagship model are making their way. The series could once again feature four models, including the 10 Pro, 10 Pro XL and the 10 Pro Fold. The latest Pixel 10 series leak gives us more idea about Google's colour plans for these models. It seems Google will have four colourways available with the Pixel 10 series, and even the regular model will be part of the new additions. Pixel 10 Series Leak: New Colours On The Way? The leak comes via Mystic Leaks this week, where you can see the Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro, the 10 Pro XL and 10 Pro Fold getting new colours. Google is tipped to add a new yellow colour to its lineup. We could also have bright colour options coming to the standard Pixel 10 variant. advetisement The tipster claims the Pixel 10 will be available in blue, yellow, purple and black colours, while the 10 Pro and 10 Pro XL will include green, grey, white and black that are standard Google colours. The Pixel 10 launch could be Google's first big launch with the new Android update rolling out much in advance, something that did not happen with the Pixel 9 series last year. Reports say the Pixel 10 is likely to be powered by the Tensor G5 chipset made using the TSMC 3nm process and not the 4nm node that Samsung used to make the Tensor G4 SoC. The biggest change with TSMC could be the Tensor G5 finally becoming as powerful as the Qualcomm premium SoCs and even close to the levels of the Apple A-series chipsets. The Pixel 10 will have a triple camera configuration and sophisticated AI capabilities. But the design of the new Pixel flagships could be identical to the Pixel 9 series which will not please some users. The company has confirmed that the Android 16 update will be ready in the next few months, which means the Pixel 10 launch could include the latest version out of the box. First Published:
