New leak suggests the Google Pixel 10 will skip some upgrades that users expected
Another possible omission is Wi-Fi 7. Last year’s Pixel 9 supported the faster standard, but the Pixel 10 is now expected to only offer Wi-Fi 6E. This could be a step back, especially as Wi-Fi 7 is becoming more common across new devices.

Google is also said to be working on a new feature called “Ultra Res Zoom.” It’s expected to be a more advanced version of Super Res Zoom, which has been around since the Pixel 3. While Super Res Zoom supports up to 8x zoom, Ultra Res Zoom could go even further. Still, the leak says this feature will likely be exclusive to the Pro version.
In terms of design, the Pixel 10 may come with matte sides and a glossy back, offering a bit of visual contrast compared to previous models.
The Pixel 10 series is rumored to launch in late August. Pricing details are still unknown, but if these leaks are accurate, the gap between the base model and the Pro may grow even wider. For those deciding between the Pixel 10 and a future Pixel 10a, it may come down to whether the missing features are worth skipping or spending more for.
