With the Pixel 9a out of the way, all eyes are now locked on Google’s next big launch — the Pixel 10 series. Expected to arrive later this year, likely in August, the Pixel 10 is already stirring up buzz thanks to fresh leaks and juicy rumours. The biggest shocker? The standard Pixel 10 might finally get a telephoto lens — a feature that, until now, was exclusive to the Pro models.
If true, this marks a major first for a non-Pro Pixel. But there’s a catch — and it could hit your wallet.Pixel 10 Camera LeakIn a surprising twist, Android Authority reports that the standard Google Pixel 10 will finally feature a telephoto lens — a first for any non-Pro Pixel.
Until the Pixel 9 series, the vanilla model stuck to just a main and ultra-wide setup. But now, Google is shaking things up.However, this upgrade doesn’t come free of compromise.
While the Pixel 10 gains an extra shooter, leaks suggest it might inherit the same camera quality as the more budget-friendly Pixel 9a. That means a 50MP main sensor, a 13MP ultra-wide, and an 11MP telephoto lens — possibly dialed down from what fans might expect.On the front, the selfie game stays steady with an 11MP front-facing camera.
While the standard Pixel 10 is stirring things up with new camera tweaks, the Pro models are playing it safe — and strong. According to leaks, the Pixel 10 Pro and the Pro XL are expected to retain the same impressive camera hardware as their Pixel 9 Pro counterparts.That means a 50MP main sensor, a 48MP ultra-wide lens, and a 48MP telephoto shooter on the back — no upgrades, but still flagship-worthy.
On the front, selfie fans can expect the same 48MP camera seen on last year’s Pro models.So, while the standard Pixel 10 shakes things up, the Pro lineup seems to be sticking to the winning formula — for now.Google Pixel 10 Series - What To ExpectLove the Pixel's iconic look? Good news — Google isn’t messing with a winning design.
The upcoming Pixel 10 series is expected to stick closely to last year’s aesthetic, complete with the signature camera bar on the back. But here’s where it gets exciting: the standard Pixel 10 might be getting a triple-camera setup for the first time ever in Pixel history. Yep, the “vanilla” model is finally stepping up.
Design-wise, the Pro models — Pixel 10 Pro and Pro XL — are said to keep their glossy frames, while the Pixel 10 may show up with a sleek matte finish. As for size, the Pixel 10 Pro XL will reportedly measure 162.7 x 76.
6 x 8.5mm — just 0.1mm shorter than last year’s Pro XL — and is expected to retain its expansive 6.
8-inch display.Under the hood, the entire Pixel 10 lineup is expected to be powered by Google’s next-gen Tensor G5 chip, promising faster performance and improved AI capabilities. Other specs? Pretty familiar — with 16GB of RAM and two storage variants: 256GB and 512GB.
But here’s the twist no one saw coming: Google might actually lower the price of the Pixel 10 Pro Fold. In a year where most brands are jacking up prices, this move could make Google's foldable a serious contender in the premium space. While exact numbers are still under wraps, even a slight dip in price could shift the foldable game.
For context, the Pixel 9 Pro Fold — launched on August 13, 2024, in India — came with a single 16GB + 512GB variant and a hefty price tag of Rs 1,72,999. If Google does trim the cost this time, the Pixel 10 Pro Fold could become the most value-packed premium foldable on the market..
