The recent leak of pricing details for the Pixel 10 range has caused quite a stir among tech enthusiasts. It appears that Google’s upcoming smartphone offerings might not be as groundbreaking as we had hoped. Journalist Roland Quandt shared a straightforward list of Euro prices for the Pixel 10 series on BlueSky, revealing pricing identical to the Pixel 9 models from the latter part of 2024.
This consistency in pricing hints at a lack of significant innovation in the Pixel 10 lineup. Unlike the drastic design changes seen in the Pixel 9 series, it seems that the Pixel 10 is more about evolution than revolution. Earlier leaks of the Pixel 10 Pro prototype and spec details also indicated minimal upgrades from the previous generation, raising concerns about the device’s overall advancement.
One notable revelation from the leaked pricing information is the Pixel 10 Pro XL starting with 256GB of storage, eliminating the cheaper 128GB option available in the Pixel 9 Pro XL. While more storage may seem appealing at first, it effectively removes a more budget-friendly choice for consumers. Additionally, the pricing leak suggests the simultaneous launch of Pixel Buds 2a earphones alongside the Pixel 10 series.
With these details in mind, it’s safe to say that the Pixel 10 event at Made by Google is likely to feel familiar rather than groundbreaking. While the lack of substantial changes may disappoint some, at least there won’t be any unwelcome surprises in terms of pricing. Stay tuned for more updates as we approach the official unveiling of the Pixel 10 series.
