The Pixel 10, 10 Pro, and 10 Pro XL share major internal upgrades: a new Tensor G5 chipset manufactured by TSMC and Qi2 magnetic charging support. The Tensor G5 delivers substantial gains, with Google claiming the CPU is about 34 percent faster than the Tensor G4 and the TPU offering roughly a 60 percent boost for on-device AI tasks. Qi2 adds a MagSafe-like magnetic ring called Pixelsnap and new Google magnetic accessories. External design remains largely unchanged, pricing mostly matches last year, and on-device AI features are emphasized across the new models.
But let's start with those top-line updates. In each of these phones is the new Tensor G5 chipset, the first one made by TSMC after four generations of Samsung-made, Google-customized silicon. Google says the CPU is on average 34 percent faster than Tensor G4's, and claims a 60 percent performance increase for on-device AI tasks handled by the TPU. On-device AI is a real theme across the Pixel 10's new features, which we'll get to in a minute.
They mostly cost the same as last year's devices - $799 for the Pixel 10, $999 for the 10 Pro, and $1,199 for the 256GB 10 Pro XL, though Google got rid of the cheaper 128GB Pro XL variant. They also look an awful lot like last year's phones, with a few specs tweaked here and there. But we got a look at some of the new features running on these phones, including - you guessed it - a bunch of AI stuff,
