Google Pixel 10 rumoured to repeat Pixel 9's launch timing: This is when new Pixel 10 phones may launch

Google appears committed to its mid-August launch timeline for the Pixel launch this year as well, with sources suggesting the Pixel 10 smartphone family will debut on August 13, the same date the Pixel 9 was revealed last year.

Twitter leaker @MysteryLupin broke the news about the August 13 date, with Android Headlines subsequently confirming both the announcement timing and retail timeline. Unlike previous years, consumers won't face extended waiting periods, as smartphones will reportedly reach store shelves by August 20 – just one week after the official presentation.The upcoming generation will expand Google's portfolio to four distinct models, encompassing standard, Pro, Pro XL, and Pro Fold variants. Industry watchers also anticipate the fourth-generation Pixel Watch to share the spotlight during the presentation.

What to expect from Pixel 10 phones
Early leaks suggest the Pixel 10 series will feature minimal design updates compared to the current Pixel 9 lineup. The most significant upgrade appears to be Google's new Tensor G5 chipset, which will be manufactured by TSMC instead of Samsung for the first time.

The base Pixel 10 model is rumored to gain a third camera with telephoto capabilities, bringing it in line with the Pro models' camera setup. However, some camera quality compromises may be necessary to accommodate the additional lens while maintaining the device's price point.

Ahead of the public unveiling, Google has scheduled private demonstrations for select enthusiasts and industry partners. The June 27 London event, dubbed "Pixel Penthouse," will provide early access to unreleased hardware for 25 chosen participants.
