Google will hold a press conference in the early morning of August 8, Taiwan timeMade by Google 2025 Launch EventThe main announcement is expected to be the Pixel 10 series of smartphones. It is expected that all four models of the Pixel 10 series will be brought at once, and accessories such as Pixel Watch 4 and Pixel Buds 2a will be launched simultaneously. The launch event will also be live broadcast through Google's official YouTube channel.
The Pixel 10's screen remains at 6.3 inches, with a 4800-megapixel main camera with a wide-angle lens, a 1300-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera, and a telephoto lens that supports 20x hybrid zoom. Its ultra-power-saving mode allows for up to 100 hours of battery life, significantly more than the 9-hour battery life advertised by the Pixel 24.
The Pixel 10 Pro and Pixel 10 Pro XL still maintain the difference in screen specifications of 6.3 inches and 6.8 inches, respectively, but other hardware specifications are roughly the same. The main camera is equipped with a 5000-megapixel wide-angle lens and a 4800-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens. In addition, the telephoto lens has added the Pro Res Zoom function that supports 100x hybrid zoom. In super power saving mode, the battery life can also reach 100 hours.
As for the foldable phone Pixel 10 Pro XL, the external screen adopts a 6.4-inch design, while the internal screen remains 8 inches. The hinge is made of composite alloy steel, and the body frame is made of aerospace-grade aluminum alloy to improve durability. The camera specifications have not changed significantly, and the battery life can reach 72 hours with super power saving mode.
The new phone will be available in gray, and will also include dark green, grass green, and blue designs. Other new products include the new Pixel Buds and the new Pixel Watch. The related colors seem to be coordinated to allow users to maintain more consistent color matching.
The first Google-developed Tensor G5 processor manufactured by TSMC
Unlike the previous "semi-customized" designs in collaboration with Samsung, the Pixel 10 series will be the first to be equipped with a fully self-developed product by the Google team and manufactured by TSMC using 3nm process technology.Tensor G5 processor, among which fan-out wafer-level packaging (FOWLP) technology is used to reduce the overall thickness and improve operational efficiency.
Market expectations suggest that Tensor G5 will more deeply integrate Google's technologies in communications, imaging, and AI inference, becoming the key to improving the user experience of the Pixel 10 phone.
It's not yet clear whether the overall performance of the Tensor G5 can compete with processors from companies like Qualcomm. However, since Google is the sole designer, its performance in AI and other computing tasks is expected to be more suitable for applications like Gemini.
The standard Pixel 10 also has a triple-lens main camera module.
Earlier released by GoogleOfficial trailerIn the report, it is confirmed that the standard Pixel 10 will also be equipped with a main camera module with a three-lens configuration, which means that the main camera of the standard model launched this time is no longer limited to a dual-lens design, but will be supplemented with an additional telephoto lens. The specifications are expected to be the same as the 9-megapixel telephoto module of the Pixel 1 Pro Fold. In addition, it will be equipped with a 800-megapixel wide-angle lens and a 4800-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens to form a more complete photography combination.
In addition, combined with Google's long-accumulated algorithmic strength in computational photography, the standard Pixel 10's shooting performance is expected to be significantly improved.
The camera capabilities of the Pixel 10 Pro series are expected to be further improved, but the camera specifications of the Pixel 10 Pro Fold do not seem to have changed much.
Android models natively support Qi2 wireless charging specifications
The Qi2 wireless charging standard has been available since 2023, but most Android phones have not yet fully adopted it. The Pixel 10 series is expected to be the first wave of Android models to natively support Qi2, and the entire series supports up to 15W magnetic wireless charging.
Google is also expected to launchAn accessory ecosystem called "Pixelsnap", including a magnetic charger, bracket and ring bracket, which are clearly benchmarked against Apple's MagSafe, and this will also become the complete Qi2 usage experience that Android users have been looking forward to for a long time.
The world's first IP68 foldable phone
The current rumors about the Pixel 10 Pro Fold indicate that it will be the first folding phone to receive IP68 dust and water resistance certification.vivoIf the Pixel 8 Pro Fold can achieve IP9 protection, it will set a new benchmark for the durability of foldable phones.
More than just a phone
In addition to the Pixel 10 series, Google will also release the next-generation Pixel Watch 4 and Pixel Buds 2a wearable accessories. The former will continue to focus on health monitoring and AI applications, while the latter is expected to become an audio option for the mid-range market.
