Google Pixel 10 to get bigger battery and better display, but may miss out on this important feature

The Google Pixel 10 series launch is just a few months away from its launch event, expected to be held on August 20. The upcoming handsets, specifically the standard Pixel 10, are speculated to get several significant upgrades in the coming years. From a new telephoto camera addition on the rear panel to an enhanced display brightness and a bigger battery than last year’s Pixel 9, it is expected to get some significant changes. The reports have been suggesting that the phones will get higher PWM dimming, which will reduce eye strain.

Pixel 10 series display brightness leaked 

According to a report by Android Authority, Pixel 10’s HBM or high-brightness mode will likely get a jump from 1800 nits to 2,000 nits, while the peak brightness will hit 3,000 nits. This means you can expect a brighter display as compared to the predecessor. Additionally, the Pixel 10 Pro and Pixel 10 Pro XL may get 2250 nits of PWM dimming.

Furthermore, the standard model will reportedly sport a 6.3-inch FHD+ display with a 120Hz refresh rate and Corning’s Gorilla Glass Victus 2 coating.

Pixel 10 series battery gets a boost  

Apart from the display, the Pixel 10 is also said to get a boost in terms of battery. The handset could feature a 4,970mAh battery, with charging speeds increasing to 29W and wireless charging support of 15W Qi2. 

While these reports seem interesting, the standard Pixel 10 may miss out on features like a vapour chamber and WiFi 7. Additionally, Google is also rumoured to reduce the size of the two cameras to incorporate the third telephoto lens on the rear panel. The handset is rumoured to feature a 48-megapixel primary camera, the same 1/2-inch sensor as the Pixel 9a and a 12-megapixel ultra-wide camera. 

Notably, none of these details have officially been confirmed yet.
