Real-world Google Pixel 10 leak hints at camera upgrade for the non-Pro phone

Unreleased Google Pixel phones don't remain under the covers for long. Credible leaks surrounding the Pixel 9 series, for example, started to emerge in January 2024, but the lineup became official in August 2024. As for the upcoming lineup, the Pixel 10 has been apparently spotted while the company was filming an ad.

According to the leak, which comes from @MarksGonePublic on X, the standard Google Pixel 10 will have a design similar to that of the Pixel 9 Pro. To be specific, on the commercial shoot, the leaker spotted a storyboard that showed an identical rear camera layout to the current-gen Pro model (128 GB curr. $799. on Amazon).

The leak has also shared two real-world photos of the upcoming Pixel 10, and these also suggest that the non-Pro model will sport a rear camera configuration similar to the 9 Pro. That is, this leak hints that there would be triple cameras on the back of the standard phone instead of the two-camera config found in the predecessor, partially matching the CAD renders leaked in March 2025.

It also seems that the standard Google Pixel 10 will get the thermometer module on the back, which is currently exclusive to the Pro models. If this leak stands to be true, it would be interesting to see what will differentiate the 10 Pro models from the standard.

As for the other leaks surrounding the Pixel 10 series, recent reports suggest that Google will stick with the same pricing for the standard and Pro models. The upcoming lineup is expected to feature the Tensor G5, which reportedly won't offer a massive performance boost over the G4. However, this new SoC is said to introduce a host of new AI-powered features.
