For much of the year, Samsung has set the tone for the best Android phones with its Galaxy S25 release from earlier in the year. But with a Google launch event looming, we're likely to get a look at the Pixel 10 very soon, setting the stage for a Google Pixel 10 vs. Samsung Galaxy S25 showdown.

Google's Pixel 10 series appears to have some subtle, but welcome upgrades in store, and I think it's shaping up to be something special.

The Pixel 10 series has already been heavily leaked, but this new leak shows off the Pixel 10 Pro phones in their Moonstone color.

Google has consistently ranked among the best smartphones for its affordable devices over the past six years, particularly with its Pixel A series. The Pixel 3a set the trend for major phone manufacturers to provide a compelling experience at half the price of flagship models, intensifying competition in this segment.

After largely focusing Google I/O 2025 on the ways the company wants Gemini to change everything from searching the web to filmmaking, Google is finally ready to launch new hardware. The next Made by Google event is on the books for August 20,

Pixel 10 may also feature its own version of Galaxy AI’s Sketch-to-Image, an unknown feature called Magic Mirror and the ability to film 4k 60fps video with HDR.

We have around a month until Google—hopefully—wows us with new smartphones. On the surface, things look very similar. However,

Google has slashed the cost of the Pixel 8 Pro by $400, bringing the price down to $599. That figure is a bit of marketing because the Pixel 8 Pro hasn’t been $999 for a very long time, and the company runs consecutive deals, so it’s rare to pay full price for a Pixel phone.

Google is still months away from the launch of fresh smartphone hardware in the Pixel 10 series. But it seems the company will focus more on internal refinements than aesthetic makeovers this year. Or at least that’s what it looks like from the recent string of leaks, which now include the next-gen Pixel foldable phone, as well.

Qi2 25W brings faster wireless charge speeds, and it's probably coming to the Pixel 10. I'm just worried Google will screw it up.
