Recent leaks and marketing visuals suggest that Google’s upcoming Pixel 10 series may launch with new color options and enhanced AI features.
Google Pixel 10 series: Google is gearing up to launch its next flagship lineup, the Pixel 10 series, and recent leaks have offered a glimpse at possible color options and design elements. According to these reports, the Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro, and Pixel 10 Pro XL could debut in a fresh range of colors that distinguish them from earlier models.
According to a DigiTimes report, Google has formed a long-term partnership with TSMC, marking a major step toward improving the performance and reliability of future Pixel devices. GSMArena.com As part of this collaboration, Google executives have reportedly traveled to Taiwan to discuss multi-year plans, which may also extend to cloud-based TPU chips, IC design, server infrastructure, and advanced liquid cooling solutions.
The Tensor G5 chip, set to launch with the Pixel 10 series, is reportedly codenamed “Laguna” and will be produced using TSMC’s cutting-edge 3nm N3E process. This marks a significant improvement over the Tensor G4, which was manufactured on Samsung’s 4nm process. The transition is expected to tackle persistent issues like overheating, subpar power efficiency, and unreliable production yields.
The Tensor G5 is rumored to come with a fresh CPU setup:
Google Pixel 10 series: one powerful Cortex-X4 core, five Cortex-A725 cores, and two energy-efficient Cortex-A520 cores. It’ll also feature Google’s own custom TPU to handle AI and other on-device tasks. Alongside that, the chip might include an always-on audio processor, a special memory co-processor called Emerald Hill, Google’s GXP DSP, and the EdgeTPU for extra AI power. For graphics, it’s expected to pack a GPU from Imagination Technologies’ DXT series.
The Pixel 10 family is said to include four models: the Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro, Pixel 10 Pro XL, and a new Pixel 10 Pro Fold. By teaming up with TSMC, Google is likely aiming to deliver more consistent flagship performance and keep production on track—especially since Samsung Foundry has been having trouble with yields on its Exynos 2500 chips.
Pixel 10: Design an AI feature (Leaked)
Alongside the color leaks, a tipster known as @MarksgonePublic shared some images from a recent marketing shoot for the Pixel 10 on X. Although the photos have since been taken down, they seemed to be part of Google’s upcoming campaign, featuring storyboards and concept shots. The tagline “Ask more of your phone” suggests a focus on the new AI features unveiled at Google’s I/O 2025 developer conference.
The Pixel 10 will put a big focus on AI, bringing new features like “Video Generative ML,” a smart video editing tool inside Google Photos; “Speak-to-Tweak,” which lets you change images using voice commands; and “Sketch-to-Image,” a feature that turns rough sketches into realistic images.
Google typically launches its flagship Pixel phones in late summer, and the Pixel 10 is expected to follow this timeline, possibly coming out in August 2025. These devices will highlight the AI tools introduced at Google I/O 2025.
Here’s a breakdown of the Pixel 10 colors based on Ezoic’s info:
Pixel 10 will come in:
Obsidian (black)
Blue
Iris (purple)
Limoncello (yellow)
Pixel 10 Pro and Pro XL will offer:
Obsidian (black)
Green
Sterling (gray)
Porcelain (white)
The Pro models seem to be sticking with a more familiar and slightly toned-down color range, including Obsidian and Porcelain, along with what looks like a return of green and a new sterling gray.
