Pixel 10 Pro XL has a minor design change compared to the Pixel 9 Pro XL. Turns out, the speaker and the mic at the bottom have been swapped to enable a more audibly clear gaming experience in landscape mode, but that introduced a new audio recording problem.

The original Pixel Fold from 2023 is now available at a heavily discounted price. You can get it for under $600, nearly 60% cheaper than its original asking price of $1,800.

Pixel 10 users have noticed major performance issues related to the underwhelming GPU output. Depending on how quickly Google acts on it, it seems like the issues can be fixed with a GPU driver update.

Multiple Google Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro users have reported that their phones' batteries are swelling, causing the screen to detach from the housing. Some even report that the issue has caused their phones not to turn on, even with a full charge.

It almost seems as though Google has focused less on the new Pixel Watch 4 and Pixel 10 features this year and more on the repairability of the new smartphones and smartwatches. In a teardown video by JerryRigEverything, the Pixel 10 Pro XL certainly shows progress on the inside.

The launch of the Pixel 10 has got off to a bumpy start. After some units encountered serious display malfunctions, Google now claims to have resolved any lingering bugs via a software update.

The new Material 3 Expressive Design is now available for all compatible smartphones, while Bluetooth Auracast and Le Audio are now finally officially supported.

The Google Pixel 10 has only been shipping for a few days, but many users are already complaining about defective displays that render the smartphone unusable, at least temporarily. The problem may be due to the graphics chip or the motherboard, making repairs expensive.

Google eliminated the physical SIM slot from the US variants of the Pixel 10 phones but it looks like those who RMA’d their devices are getting global variants with SIM slots. If you experience the same, these models should work fine with most networks, but if you require mmWave connectivity, reach out to support.

The budget-friendly "Pixel a" lineup is known for its balance of features and price. However, the first spec leaks for the Google Pixel 10a are here, and they bring bad news. Rumors speak of Google reusing old hardware, including previous-generation chips, to keep the price tag under control.

Apple's own MagSafe wireless charger for iPhones has been discontinued for nearly two years, yet might now have a new lease of life as a Google Pixelsnap alternative. The Battery Pack has been found to be compatible with the new Pixel 10 series of flagship Android smartphones, and for an interesting reason too.

Does it survive the bend test? This question hardly needs to be asked in view of the high-quality build of the Pixel 10 Pro XL. What's more exciting about the durability test on the JerryRigEverything YouTube channel are the hints of major changes inside the latest Google phone, which make for an interesting teardown.

The Google Tensor G5 has been put to the test by running multiple popular games on the Pixel 10 Pro XL. While the SoC offered good overall performance in a recent GPU stress test, in the new video, the gaming performance appears somewhat of a mixed bag.

Google's Pixel 10 series and the 2025 crop of Samsung foldables have become the first phones to officially use the X app for sending messages without cellular coverage. Besides Google's Pixel phones, the first Starlink-powered tweeting is also available on the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7.

New tests have now showcased one potential stand-out quality of the Tensor G5 on Google's Pixel 10 Pro XL. The flagship phone was put through 3DMark's brutal WildLife Extreme Stress Test, showing off its rather impressive stability in the process.

The somewhat controversial camera experts at DxOMark have just published their Pixel 10 Pro XL camera review, and it concludes with a very good result and a top spot in their ranking of best smartphone cameras. Right behind the Huawei Pura 80 Ultra, Oppo Find X8 Ultra and Vivo X200 Ultra, Google captures the fourth place, ahead of Apple's iPhone 16 Pro Max.

With a capacity of 4,870mAh, the Google Pixel 10 Pro has a smaller battery than most competitors, and Google's Tensor chipsets don't have the best reputation when it comes to efficiency. A battery life comparison now shows how the Pixel 10 Pro holds up against the Samsung Galaxy S25 and Apple iPhone 16 Pro.

When it comes to consumer technology, it's not unusual to see a new device lagging behind its predecessor in some areas. In this case, early camera comparisons have shown that the Pixel 10 is some steps behind the Pixel 9 in a key area.

Samsung has impressively demonstrated that it can also build thin foldables. However, this requires a few compromises. Google is taking a completely different approach with the Pixel 10 Pro Fold, which is even thicker. We venture a comparison.

The Google Pixel Watch 4 aims to impress not only with longer battery life and satellite emergency calling, but also with a fundamentally redesigned design that is supposed to be easier to repair. An initial teardown now reveals how easy the Pixel Watch 4 actually is to disassemble.

The Google Pixel Watch 4 is now official and comes with more upgrades than previously expected. Not only can the smartwatch communicate via satellite, but a new co-processor increases battery life, and the casing has been designed to be repair-friendly for the first time.

Pixel 10 buyers on T-Mobile will be the first to access app support through the carrier’s Starlink-powered T-Satellite service. Instead of waiting until the October 1 rollout, they can start using Google Maps, Google Messages, and Find Hub over satellite as soon as the phones launch on August 28. The service offers basic but practical connectivity in areas without cell towers, with speeds suited for navigation, messaging, and device tracking rather than heavy data use.
