In recent weeks, several details about the Google Pixel 10 specifications have emerged, allowing us to share the key features that matter most. First up is the display. The Pixel 10 will feature a 6.3-inch FHD+ display with a 120Hz refresh rate.
Google remains committed to using Corning’s Gorilla Glass Victus 2 for durability, but there’s a notable increase in brightness. As reported, the high brightness mode will ramp up from 1800nits to 2,000nits, while peak brightness will also rise from 2,700nits to an impressive 3,000nits, ensuring a vibrant viewing experience. On the internal front, the Pixel 10 will be powered by the Tensor G5 chip, built using TSMC’s 3nm process.
It will come equipped with 12GB of RAM, matching the memory found in the Galaxy S25 Ultra, and will offer storage options of either 128GB or 256GB. However, it’s worth noting that the base model’s storage won’t see an upgrade this year, nor will a higher storage tier be available. The battery has also received enhancements, increasing its capacity by about 5% to 4,970mAh.
The charging speeds are now boosted to 29W, while wireless charging can reach 15W over Qi2, though older chargers will max out at 7.5W. Unfortunately, the camera setup for the Pixel 10 is experiencing some downgrades. The primary camera will now feature a 48-megapixel sensor, likely the same as the Pixel 9a.
The ultrawide sensor will be reduced to 12 megapixels from 48 megapixels, which seems like a puzzling decision. Additionally, the new telephoto lens will be a 10.8-megapixel sensor with 5x zoom, borrowing from the Pixel 9 Pro Fold. There is some optimism, as Google’s computational photography tends to excel on smaller sensors, often outperforming other smartphones in camera comparisons.
The Pixel 10 is expected to continue this trend. Lastly, it’s confirmed that the Pixel 10 will not include a vapor chamber and will lack WiFi 7 support seen in its predecessor. The official release date is set for August 28, with a public announcement scheduled for August 20.
