As Google prepares to launch its Pixel 10 series, a new set of leaks surrounding the phones has emerged. This time, the specifications of the Pro and Pro XL models have been revealed, courtesy of a report by Android Headlines. According to the report, the devices will largely retain the same features as their predecessors, with minimal upgrades.
For starters, the Pixel 10 Pro and Pro XL will sport the same 6.3-inch and 6.8-inch screens respectively. These will allegedly be LTPO displays with a 120Hz refresh rate and a peak brightness of 3,000 nits. The front and back of the phones will also feature Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2.
The phones do get an upgrade in the form of Google’s newly made Tensor G5 chipset. However, as with their predecessors, they will reportedly come with 16GB of RAM and up to 1TB of storage. That said, the Pro XL version will not be getting a 128GB option for some reason.
Another upgrade is in terms of battery capacity. The Pixel 10 Pro will apparently be powered by a 4,870mAh unit, which is an improvement over the Pixel 9 Pro’s 4,700mAh battery. Android Headlines noted that the standard Pixel 10 has a larger battery than the Pro variant, but this is due to the inclusion of a vapour chamber for the Pro.
Meanwhile, the Pixel 10 Pro XL is expected to come with a 5,200mAh battery, which is an increase from the Pixel 9 Pro XL‘s 5060mAh battery. It is also the largest battery to be fitted on a Pixel phone thus far. As for charging speeds, there could be an increase to 29W and 39W, plus 15W wireless charging.
On the other hand, the cameras are more or less what we’ve already seen on the Pixel 9 series. Essentially, the phones will feature a 50MP main sensor, a 48MP ultra-wide unit, and a 48MP 5x telephoto lens. Of course, this is not exactly new as Google has a track record of using the same camera hardware for multiple generations of phones. There is a slight upgrade for the ultra-wide and telephoto cameras, though, as they will apparently be capable of macro shots.
Based on these leaks, Google seems to be playing it safe by going with familiar features and tried-and-true formulas. Of course, there could still be some surprises yet to be revealed, but we will have to wait until the official unveiling of the phones, which is expected to take place on 20 August.
