A Google Pixel 10 ad shoot in Vancouver has spilled some tantalizing details, just as Apple gears up for its WWDC showcase. Caught in the wild by a keen observer, this leak—complete with storyboards and a glimpse of the phone itself—offers a surprisingly clear peek at what Google’s cooking for its 2025 flagship.

Google’s Pixel 10 maintains a familiar design, with leaked ad shoot photos revealing a look akin to the Pixel 9 Pro, featuring the same power button and volume rocker placement and a triple-lens camera array—once exclusive to Pro models—now standard across the range, complete with a flash and thermometer.

Word is the Pixel 10 will pack the Tensor G5 chip, built on TSMC’s 3nm process, outshining older Samsung chips with better efficiency, longer battery life, and cooler performance for heavy tasks like gaming or video calls. Posts on social media also suggest a MediaTek T900 modem and an Imagination Technologies GPU, alongside a custom camera ISP, which could sharpen image processing.
Cameras are where the Pixel 10 might flex its muscles most. Leaks indicate the base Pixel 10 could borrow the Pixel 9a’s camera setup, including a 50MP Samsung GN8 main sensor with optical image stabilization, a 10MP Samsung ISOCELL 3J1 5x telephoto lens, and a 13MP Sony IMX712m ultrawide lens. The triple-lens camera setup hints Google’s leveling up photography across the board, with a telephoto lens nailing sharp zoomed shots, ideal for snagging far-off details without a blur.
Display rumors point to a polished upgrade: a 6.3-inch 120Hz OLED for the Pixel 10, possibly a 6.8-inch for the Pro XL, both delivering buttery scrolling and vivid colors, plus improved PWM dimming to ease eye strain during late-night use. Leaks tease bold color options—blue, yellow, green—for the Pixel 10, Pro, and Pro XL.
A new feature called “Pixel Sense” is generating some hype. Described as a personalized AI assistant, it’s said to pull data from Google apps like Calendar, Keep, Maps, and Tasks to offer predictive suggestions. Imagine your phone nudging you to leave early for a meeting based on traffic or pulling up a grocery list when you’re near a store.
Google’s usual August Pixel launch feels likely, and this early ad shoot leak suggests they’re already cranking up the hype, maybe to snag some spotlight from Apple’s WWDC happening next month.
