Pixel 10 leaks suggest the anticipated inclusion of Qi2 magnetic charging technology
New Leaks Reveal Exciting Details About Google's Pixel 10 Series
Reputed leaker Evan Blass has shared new details about Google's upcoming Pixel 10 series, offering a glimpse into what we can expect from the tech giant's latest offerings.
The Pixel 10 series is expected to debut with the Tensor G5 chipset, a significant upgrade from its predecessor. The Pixel 10 Pro and Pixel 10 Pro XL will continue to offer larger screens, with sizes remaining at 6.3 inches and 6.8 inches respectively.
In terms of camera setup, the Pixel 10 Pro and Pro XL models will feature a 50MP main sensor, a 48MP ultra-wide with autofocus for macro shots, and a telephoto camera offering "100x Pro Res Zoom". Video recording supports 8K at 24/30fps. The baseline Pixel 10 model will feature a triple-camera setup, including a 48MP primary sensor, a 13MP ultra-wide lens, and a telephoto lens with up to 20x Super Res Zoom.
Battery life is another area where the Pixel 10 series is expected to shine. With Extreme Battery Saver mode, the Pixel 10 Pro and Pro XL can last up to 100 hours (slightly over 4 days), while the Pixel 10 Pro Fold variant offers up to 72 hours (3 days). The Pixel 10 Pro features a roughly 4,870 mAh battery, slightly smaller than the Pixel 10's battery (around 4,970 mAh), likely due to a larger vapor chamber for cooling. Charging specs include 29W wired charging (up from 27W in the previous model) and wireless charging speeds around 15W. A proprietary Pixel wireless charger supports up to 21W wireless charging.
The Pixel 10 series is expected to launch with multiple color options, including Obsidian, Porcelain, Moonstone, Jade, Frost, Indigo, and Limoncello. Software-wise, the Pixel 10 Pro models will likely come bundled with a 12-month Google AI Pro subscription, continuing the trend from the Pixel 9 Pro lineup.
Regarding native Qi2 magnetic charging support, no confirmed information exists yet. While initial rumors of the Pixel 10 supporting a "Pixelsnap" Qi2 wireless charging system surfaced in June 2025, this new leak suggests the Pixel 10 may have built-in magnets. The leaked posts show a magnetic charger attached directly to the back of a Pixel 10 device, hinting at potential MagSafe-like Qi2 magnetic charging support.
The Pixel Watch 4 is another exciting addition to the lineup. It is expected to bring major software upgrades, particularly for strength training features. The watch is rumored to come in 41mm and 45mm sizes and feature a larger battery than the Pixel Watch 3, as well as a side-mounted charging system. The new Pixel Watch 4 colorways include Moonstone, Iris, and Obsidian.
The Pixel Watch 4 is also expected to have a side-mounted charging system, a departure from the Pixel Watch 3's back-mounted charging. Blass also shared renders of the Pixel Watch 4, an official case for the Pixel 10 Pro, and a new color option for the Pixel Buds Pro 2.
The official unveiling of the Pixel 10 series is just a few weeks away, promising an exciting end to the year for tech enthusiasts. Stay tuned for more updates as we get closer to the launch date.
