Google’s upcoming Pixel 10 lineup is already making waves – not just for its expected tech upgrades, but for the now slightly chaotic timeline of its launch. Initially rumored to debut on August 13, the same date the Pixel 9 family dropped last year, fresh reports suggest that Google is now pushing the event to August 20.
That shift isn’t just symbolic. 
It appears the company plans to open pre-orders right after the event on the 20th, and begin shipping and in-store availability on August 28. Of course, with Google’s track record of frequent leaks and last-minute changes, fans are cautiously optimistic.
The new flagship is expected to feature the long-awaited Tensor G5 chip, marking a critical transition from Samsung’s foundry to TSMC. This move could be a game changer – bringing not just improved performance but also better power efficiency and thermals. Users burned by previous overheating or performance lag issues are hopeful this marks a turning point.
While these rumors swirl, the leaked renders of the Pixel 10 Pro XL have already sparked design debates online. The visuals suggest a refinement of Google’s signature design language, staying familiar but sleeker. Some fans are impressed, while others are hoping the internals finally catch up to the aesthetics.
Regardless of whether the August 13 or 20 date sticks, one thing is clear: Google’s next Pixel drop is closer than ever – and the community is watching every step with popcorn in hand.

If it really has better battery life, I’m in. My Pixel 7 dies faster than my motivation
They better get the performance right this time. I’m still recovering from my Pixel 6 lag trauma
