Google Pixel 10 and 10 Pro Magnet, a new chip, and everywhere come with AI

Google has formally announced Pixel 10, 10 Pro, and 10 Pro XL, and their hardware upgrade can be summarized in a two -letter/number combination: G5 and Qi 2. Otherwise, there’s not much to look out of the phone. They Most Like last year’s devices – Cost – 9 799 for Pixel 10, 9 999 for 10 Pro, and $ 1,199 for 256GB 10 Pro XL, though Google gets rid of different types of cheap 128GB Pro XL. They look like last year’s phones, even here and there was some sunglasses here. But we got a look at some of the new features that run on these phones, including – you guessed it – a group of AI things, and more than wearing an eye.

But let’s start with these topline updates. Each of these phones has a new tanker G5 chip set, made by TSMC by TSMC after four generations of Samsung -made, Google from Google. Google says the CPU is 34 34 % faster than the G4, and claims that the performance of TPU -handed AI work has increased by 60 %. On the Device AI Pixel 10 is the original topic in the new features, which we will find in a minute.

Then there is Q2 charging support with a long wait. With apologies to the HMD Skyline, we have not yet offered a major Android OEM on a phone. It includes the megasaf-AC ring on the previous panel, which is introducing Google as a pixel. Google will offer some of its accessories at the time of launch: a magnetic stand charger with a separate wireless charging puck, as well as color type grip that also serves as stands. The market has about nine million different megs of accessories, with which the pixel 10 will also be synchronized. Regular 10 and 10 Pro will charge up to 15W with a QI2 charger, but only 10 Pro XL 25W’s top Qi2.2 supports wireless charging speed.

Regular Pixel 10 is good and bad news. Bad: Instead of distributing 10 Pro’s large 50 megapixel main camera sensor, as in previous years, regular 10 budget friendly with a small sensor who borrowed from Pixel 9A. It is a 48 -megapixel 1/2 “type sensor, compared to 50 megapixel 1/1.3” type sensor that is now allocated for 10 Pro and 10 Pro XL. Pixel 10 also receives a 13 -megapixel ultra -wide of 9A, while Pro phones get a large 48 megapixel sensor. But the good news is that he has the appropriate telephonic lens for the first time, though once again, his 5x camera is one step below the hardware offered on pro phones. Something win, lost something.

Talking about the disadvantages: Google is taking a page from Apple’s Playbok, and versions of Pixel 10 phones sold in the United States will only be SIM. The physical SIM tray has been changed at the same time with the ability to use two active Esims and store eight “or more” ESIM profiles.

The screens are a bit bright throughout the board. The batteries are also a little bigger. Pixel offers 4970mAh battery against 4700mAh in 10 Pixel 9. 10 Pro is actually a little less than 10 regular in 4870mAh, which is still a bit of a pixel 9 Pro’s 4700mAh capacity. Pixel 10 Pro XL has a capacity of 5200mAh, which is more than 5060mAh in the previous generation.

The most notable new AI feature in the 10 series is called magic, which actively suggests that you want to paste into an app or conversation based on context. If a friend is sharing you, Airbon B has a text to ask for the address, the theory, the magic cue will catch the address from your email and suggest you on the board without any input. You will be able to tape and check the email for yourself, or paste it in a straightforward conversation. If it recognizes that you are calling the number of business on an email, as if you have already booked a flight like an airline, it may be at the level of relevant details in the phone app like your verification number. It looks like a turbo charged auto for everything.

The Magic Qi works with first -party apps for most parts, which include messages, calendars, Gmail, and phone apps, but this G board is also made, so you may also see text tips on third party apps. Senior Director for Product Management for Pixel Sheenz Zack confirmed that all AI device is running, and when it has included your recent phone activity in its suggestions, she says it is “fake”. Zack added, “Don’t remember what you did a week ago,” and that it’s not saving any screen content. Zack will not say whether this feature will be included in the old pixel devices. This is one of the things that, if it works, can really save your time and effort when you bounce between apps on your phone. Or it can’t be anything! In any way, Google now dreams.

Here too, there is also a burden of other AI features. On 10 Pro and 10 Pro XL, the camera app will use the Discovering AI model to improve the detail in the shots taken above 30x zoom. This is not just an algorithm that decides whether the pixel should be red based on the pixels around it-this camera app is a completely generating AI. This happens after taking your image, it does not work on people, and the results are tagged as amendment using AI in C2PA content credentials, which are now supported by Google Photo. Good But Holi scam is a “picture” level “. I have more ideas about them all, but regardless of any philosophical hangup, this demo I saw was really effective. What would usually look like a digital zomed waste it became a real usable image. Were they photos? Who can say?

Then the AI ​​feature is the era of electricity. There is an AI camera coach, which gives you a step -step -by -step direction to improve a particular picture you are trying to compose. Good idea, but I’m not sure who will use it. Now you can use text prompts to edit the photo in the AI ​​-powered magic editor. There is also a journal app, as Google and Apple can’t stop copying each other, and one of it summarizes your daily entries to assign a smiling face emoji and produce indicators based on which you have written. Weird!

Finally, the phone app has an AI translator – not a new concept. But this version uses AI to imitate the voice of the person you are talking about, so you will hear translations near his speech rather than a robot. The effect is decent, if it has no place.

Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro, and Pixel 10 Pro XL are available for pre -order today. They will be in the shelves on August 28. Pixel 10 begins with 9 799, and 10 Pro 999 starts at 999 – like last year’s phone. Starting at $ 1,199, Pixel 10 Pro XL9 is more expensive than the XL, as it is similar to the cost of 256 GB of last year. This time you will not get the $ 1,099 128GB version.
