new telephones, watches, and extra

It is humorous to suppose that at one time, Google was invested in product secrecy as a lot as Apple is with each iPhone announcement. That was cheap — till leaks of upcoming Pixel phones turned so widespread that there was virtually no level in holding an occasion. In current occasions Google appears to have admitted defeat, issuing teaser bulletins forward of main product showcases. The Pixel 10 is a recognized amount — it is simply the small print that have to be confirmed.

The curtain on that data is slated to rise throughout a “Made by Google” occasion on Wednesday, August 20 at 1pm ET/10am PT. Within the meantime, I’ve gathered collectively all probably the most credible rumors to this point, together with information in regards to the Pixel 10 Professional Fold. There’s additionally phrase that we’ll be seeing different merchandise introduced. For a teaser of my very own, for example that you simply may be fairly pleased in case you’re into fitness.

The Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Professional, and Pixel 10 Professional XL

The celebrities of the present

In some methods, the majority of the Pixel lineup is not anticipated to alter a lot. The Pixel 10 and Pixel 10 Professional ought to every characteristic a 6.3-inch show, with the Pixel 10 Professional XL bumping you as much as 6.8-inches. Via each many leaks and official product pictures, we all know that aesthetics will keep just like the Pixel 9 sequence.

Issues get a bit of extra fascinating below the floor. The entire telephones are anticipated to improve to Google’s new Tensor G5 processor, which must be developed in-house, and manufactured utilizing a 3nm TSMC course of. Historically, Google has partnered with Samsung, so the hope is that the G5 could also be higher optimized for Pixel 10’s wants — or no less than extra power-efficient, because the G4 has a 4nm structure. Considered one of Apple’s best benefits with the iPhone is that its processors are custom-tailored, even eliminating the necessity for as a lot RAM as many Android telephones have.

The bottom Pixel 10 ought to embrace a ten.8-megapixel telephoto camera along with 48-megapixel huge and 13-megapixel ultra-wide models. Previously, Google has pressured consumers to improve to a Professional for a telephoto, even though it is normally preferable to get nearer to a topic than push it away. Certainly, the transfer might put strain on Apple, which is anticipated to stay to a large/ultra-wide combo for the usual iPhone 17. There’ll nonetheless be causes to improve to a Pixel 10 Professional or Professional XL, in fact — these gadgets ought to get 48-megapixel telephotos, sitting subsequent to 50-megapixel huge and 48-megapixel ultra-wide cameras.

For some individuals, the largest change could be the addition of Qi2 charging, which relies on Apple’s MagSafe and considerably quicker than common Qi. To help that Google is allegedly introducing a sequence of ” Pixelsnap” equipment, together with a case. Magnets enhance the effectivity of wi-fi charging by guaranteeing excellent alignment. As a bonus, they permit equipment like attachable wallets and battery packs, and extra elegant charging stands. It is best to even be capable of use most MagSafe merchandise with a Pixel, assuming a distinction in cellphone dimensions does not get in the way in which.

Like its siblings, the ten Professional Fold must be evolutionary quite than revolutionary, gaining upgrades like a Tensor G5 chip, a 48-megapixel ultra-wide digicam, and a telephoto with 5x optical zoom. Arguably these options ought to’ve been within the 9 Professional Fold, provided that machine’s $1,800 sticker worth.

The marquee change may very well be sturdiness. Google is rumored to be bettering the energy of the hinge, and in accordance with WinFuture, introducing IP68 water and mud resistance. Up to now, no foldable has had higher mud resistance than the IP48 on Samsung’s Z Fold and Z Flip — and the 9 Professional Fold has no mud score in any respect. With the ten Professional Fold, it could lastly be protected to take a foldable to the seaside or a dusty building website, though there is no phrase on how powerful the machine’s inside and exterior screens will likely be.

The Pixel Watch 4 and Pixel Buds 2a

Giving the individuals what they need

Not a lot is understood in regards to the Pixel Watch 4, nevertheless it might change into barely thicker than its predecessor within the title of prolonged battery life. Android Headlines provides that it would get steady blood oxygen (SpO2) monitoring, as a substitute of simply recording that knowledge in a single day. It is a win for runners, weightlifters, and different athletic varieties, as noon SpO2 ranges are an indication of cardiovascular health — the nearer they’re to 100%, the higher. For a lifter like myself, extra oxygen saturation can imply squeezing out another rep on a tough set.

One other rumored enhancement is a few kind of emergency satellite tv for pc communication, as on the forthcoming Apple Watch Extremely 3. The Pixel Watch 4 must be significantly cheaper, nevertheless, beginning at $350 versus the Extremely 3’s $800, assuming tariffs do not push costs upward from the final era.

The Pixel Buds 2a, in the meantime, are Google’s new funds earbuds. In keeping with well-known leaker Evan Blass, Google is planning so as to add lively noise cancellation to the A sequence for the primary time, if inferior to what you may discover on the Pixel Buds Professional 2. The 2a will lack another Professional options too, specifically Dialog Detection, head-tracked spatial audio, and wi-fi charging for the case. It is best to count on cheap battery life, fortunately — that is rumored to be 7 hours of in-ear time, and 20 hours in complete through the case.

Different potential surprises

The AI drumbeat bangs on

It would not be a Google occasion if there wasn’t some kind of AI tie-in, and one other Android Headlines declare is that Gemini will achieve a “Digital camera Coach” for Pixel gadgets, providing tips about issues like angles and lighting to provide higher pictures. There could even be conversational photograph modifying, letting you do issues like tweak publicity or take away objects with easy voice instructions. That may very well be very spectacular if it really works reliably — though I might stick with finger gestures or Photoshop when precision issues.

Google can also be lengthy overdue to replace a lot of the Google Nest smart home lineup, significantly its audio system and shows. The final main refresh in that space was the second-generation Nest Hub, which shipped in 2021. Earlier in 2025, the corporate promised to proceed placing out new merchandise, and the Made by Google occasion can be a logical time to disclose something if it will ship earlier than the tip of 2025. There is not any phrase on particular gadgets, nevertheless.
