Well,Bayo now we know the Google Pixel 10 is really happening, for real, although the source of this information is a bit unusual.
Google uploaded a promotional video to its Made by Google YouTube channel (Made by Google is the annual event where new Pixel phones are generally announced) in which an iPhone and a Pixel phone are talking to each other on a podcast. The core conceit of the video is that many of Apple's recent AI-focused announcements are very similar to features Google had introduced previously. That's all fine and good, but at then at the end of the video, the iPhone asks the Pixel what it's working on for Pixel 10.

Unfortunately, the video provided no more information. We don't know when the Pixel 10 is being officially unveiled, when it's coming out, how much it will cost, or what it will do differently from the Pixel 9 phones.
We do have somerumors and leaks to go off of in the meantime. For instance, it sounds like the base Pixel 10 will feature a telephoto lens in addition to the wide and ultra-wide lenses on the back, putting it more in line with premium Pixel Pro phones. Android Headlines reported this week that this telephoto lens will be used for improved macro photography, which was previously only done with the ultra-wide lens.
And according to Android Headlines, the Pixel 10 phones will be announced on Aug. 20 ahead of an Aug. 28 release date, but that's all unconfirmed.
We will, of course, let you know when Google doesofficially tell us all of these things.
