Here’s a quick roundup of everything we’ve learned so far about Google’s upcoming Pixel 10 lineup and the Pixel Watch 4, thanks to a fresh wave of leaks from tipster Arsène Lupin on X. From storage tiers and color palettes to watch sizes and bands, there’s really little left to discover until Google’s own unveiling.

A peek under the hood

The Pixel 10 Pro prototype that surfaced earlier this summer confirms Google’s switch to TSMC for its Tensor G5 chipset. Early test units show up to 16 GB of RAM paired with 256 GB of storage, and a core setup that includes a beefy Cortex‑X4 alongside multiple Cortex‑A7xx cores. This marks the first time Google’s flagship chip is built on a 3 nm process, promising better power efficiency and performance than past Samsung‑made Tensor chips.

Camera details

While the Pixel 10 adopts a telephoto lens for the first time on the base model, Google has also made a few surprising shifts elsewhere. The main sensor drops to 48 MP from 50 MP, and the ultrawide steps down to 12 MP compared with last year’s 48 MP module. In compensation, you’ll get a 10.8 MP telephoto lens with 5× optical zoom — likely borrowed from the Pro Fold’s toolkit. The Pixel 10 and 10 Pro XL’s camera setup is mostly unchanged, but you might see macro support for the ultrawide and telephoto lenses.

More hues and options

MysteryLupin’s latest leak lays out every color and storage variant across the Pixel 10 family:

  • Pixel 10: 128 GB, 256 GB in Obsidian, Frost, Lemongrass and Indigo
  • Pixel 10 Pro: 128 GB, 256 GB, 512 GB, 1 TB in Obsidian, Porcelain, Moonstone and Jade
  • Pixel 10 Pro XL: 256 GB, 512 GB, 1 TB in the same Pro shades
  • Pixel 10 Pro Fold: 256 GB, 512 GB, 1 TB in Moonstone and Jade

If you’re keeping score, Google has replaced some long‑time staples like Obsidian and Porcelain with new names like Frost and Moonstone, while still offering bold new tones such as Lemongrass. You can dive deeper into the full palette here.

The next Pixel Watch

We’ve also got the first comprehensive look at the Pixel Watch 4, complete with sizes, finishes and bands. MysteryLupin’s leak confirms:

  • Sizes & connectivity: 41 mm and 45 mm models, both in Wi‑Fi and LTE variants
  • Finishes: Black/Obsidian, Gold/Lemon, Moonstone, Silver/Iris, Silver/Porcelain
  • Bands: Leather, Active and Sport loops in multiple dual‑tone and gradient styles, plus metal mesh and woven options

The renders suggest subtle design tweaks — slimmer bezels and a thicker chassis, possibly to house a larger battery — and hint at built‑in wireless charging by dropping the four-charging‑pin layout of the Watch 3. For more details and a 360-degree look, check out this post.

Going beyond phones

Lupin’s leaks didn’t stop at phones and watches. We also got a peek at Google’s next audio and power accessories:

  • Pixel Buds Pro 2: arriving in a new Sterling finish
  • Pixel Buds 2a: Hazel, Strawberry, Iris, Fog Light
  • Chargers: a “Rock Candy” wired brick plus an updated Pixel Wireless Charger

Pricing surprises shake up the lineup

Back in April we reported on a leak from Android Headlines that laid out the new price points. The base Pixel 10 holds at $799, but the Pixel 10 Pro XL jumps by about $100 to sit around $1,200. In a twist, the Pixel 10 Pro Fold will actually drop to about $1,600, a $200 cut from its predecessor, with further reductions expected by 2027.

With storage tiers, chip details, color options, watch sizes and now price tags all out in the open, Google’s August event seems set to confirm what we already know. We’ll be on the lookout for the final word on availability, any surprise features and those all‑important pre order deals.
