Google Pixel 10 reportedly fixes a screen issue that iPhone and Galaxy devices addressed years ago
Because of this, some Pixel users have relied on software mods to work around the issue, but Google has not made the change itself — at least, not yet.

All Pixel 10 models may get brighter displays, though. According to the report, the base Pixel 10 is expected to reach a declared HDR brightness of 2,000 nits, up from 1,800 nits. The Pixel 10 Pro and Pro XL might reach 2,250 nits, up from 2,050 nits. The Pixel 10 Pro Fold could see 1,850 nits on its main display and 2,050 nits on the outer screen. These numbers suggest about a 10 percent increase compared to previous models.
Still, these brightness numbers refer to what’s written in the software. Real-world brightness could be higher or vary depending on the content. For reference, Google advertised 3,000 nits of peak brightness on last year’s Pixel 9 Pro. So while the new figures are useful for comparison, they may not reflect actual peak performance.
It’s important to note that at this time, this information is based on an unconfirmed report. However, if these changes do happen, they would bring helpful improvements to the Pixel lineup, especially for users who are sensitive to display flicker. But the uneven rollout of these upgrades could still be a point of criticism.
