Google has officially unveiled its new range of pixels, with the Pixel 10, the Pixel 10 Pro, the Pixel 10 Pro XL and the Pixel 10 Pro Fold having made its debut at Made by Google 2025.
We spent time with the four new models, and for our first reflections on each, consult our practical review Google Pixel 10, the practical review of Google Pixel 10 Pro / XL and the practical review of Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold.
If, however, you are looking for a whistle visit to the latest Google hardware and software upgrades, we have detailed five key elements, namely on the Google Pixel 10 range below.
To watch
1. New Pixelsnap accessories
Lut with pixelsnap: integrated magnetic MI2 wireless charging technology for the entire Pixel 10 line.
Like Apple Magsafe technology, Pixelsnap allows you to break wireless chargers, stands, handles and other accessories with a chosen Pixel 10 model. The Pixel 10, the Pixel 10 Pro and the Pixel 10 Pro Fold can be loaded up to 15W using Pixelsnap, while the Pixel 10 Pro XL obtains a higher 25W ceiling.
Google made its debut on its own suite of Pixelsnap accessories alongside the Pixel 10 line – including a magnetic charger, a magnetic support and a magnetic ring tool to adjust your standing capacity – but the technology is also compatible with the existing Magsafe accessories of the Apple and thirds brands like Belkin.
Just say that this is a big problem for Google and the future of Android phones. Until now, all Android users (with the exception of HMD Horizon owners) have been forced to buy adhesive magnetic rings and bulky magnetic cases to magnetize their devices, but Pixelsnap builds a magnetic ring in the pixel devices themselves.
Hoping that we will see other manufacturers of Android phones soon launching similar magnetic load systems (looking at you, Samsung).
2. New IA camera tips
Another new feature of the entire Pixel 10 line is Camera Coach, which uses AI to help you take better photos.
This Gemini -based software tool can analyze a scene of the Pixel 10 viewfinder and offer suggestions on how to improve your photo. For example, Camera Coach can tell you which shooting method to use, how to best supervise your subject and suggest other useful pointers to make the most of the cameras of your Pixel 10.
Alternatively, if you want to improve a photo that you have already taken, the Pixel 10 presents modify with request photos, which, as its name suggests, allows you to ask Gemini specific photo changes. You can ask for improvements to things like sharpness or lightning, or even ask Gemini to add content generated by AI directly to your image.
3. Real zoom for the Pixel 10
Hearing themselves with cameras, Google has finally added a telephoto lens dedicated to its pixel base lighthouse.
The Pixel 10 obtains a 10.8 MP telephoto lens with a 5x optical zoom and a 20x digital zoom, which is the same telephoto lens as you will find it on the Pixel 10 Pro Fold.
Fortunately, Google has abandoned any of the other cameras to make room for this new goal on Pixel 10, you will always have wide and ultra-large shooting options. However, the company has abandoned the resolution of this last camera from 48 MP to 12MP.
Of course, for the best pixel cameras, you will want to opt for the Pixel 10 Pro or the Pixel 10 Pro XL, which both wear a 48MP telephoto lens sensor and offer up to 100x digital zoom. That said, we are delighted to see Google finally equip its basic model with a zoom camera capable this year.
4. Chipset Tensor G5
Each Pixel 10 model is powered by the new Tensor G5 chipset, which, according to Google, is the most important upgrade of the Tensor platform since its inception five years ago.
Compared to the G4 Tensor, the G5 has a 34% faster processor and a more powerful TPU of 60% – that is to say the Google personalized tensor processing unit, which manages automatic learning workloads – so that you can expect smoother performance, a faster AI treatment and better battery efficiency of each Pixel 10 phone.
The Tensor G5 is also associated with the new Titan M2 safety chip, which offers safety functionalities cooked such as automated calls for calls, protection against malware and even an integrated VPN.
Although we do not expect the Tensor G5 to compete with the Snapdragon 8 Elite or A18 Pro chipset in terms of raw energy, it should offer a clean – and secure software experience.
5. IP68 RATING FOR THE Pixel 10 Pro Fold
At first glance, the Pixel 10 Pro Fold is very similar to its predecessor, and while it East About the same size and thickness, it benefits from a real world first in the foldable category: an IP68 resistance rating.
An IP note – IP standing for input protection – defines how a device can prevent dust (first issue) and water (second number) from entering its chassis. An IP68 rating means that the Pixel 10 Pro fold is resistant to both And Dust, which is an argument of sale that even the Galaxy Z Fold 7 cannot boast.
For reference, the Pixel 9 Pro fold is shipped with an IPX8 note, which means that it offered the same level of protection against water but not protection against dust.
An IP68 note means that the Pixel 10 Pro Fold is now just as secure as the best Android phones – and it is a big problem not only for pixel fold fans, but the foldable fans more generally, because it suggests that future foldables from other brands could benefit from the same level of protection.
Other durability upgrades for the new Google foldable include a new hinge without a gear, which, according to Google, will remain strong for more than 10 years.
So, there, you have it: five key things that you should know about the Google Pixel 10 range. For a deeper dive in the four new products, consult our above -mentioned practical criticisms and listen to our opinions on Pixel 10 in the coming weeks.
