Google Pixel 10 Pro XL 5G vs Pixel 9 Pro XL 5G: Expected upgrades, features, price, and more

Google is hosting the 'Made by Google' event on August 20 to introduce the new generation of Pixel phones. This year's Pixel 10 series is anticipated to have four models, as last years, including the Pixel 10 Pro XL 5G model that will likely have a bigger screen, battery, and upgraded camera setup. As we wait for the official launch, several rumours about the Pixel 10 series have been circulating on the internet, giving us a glimpse into what Google may unveil. If you are someone who is eyeing the new Pixel 10 Pro XL 5G model, then know what upgrades are expected in comparison to last year's Pixel 9 Pro XL 5G model, which is still an impressive Android phone.

Google Pixel 10 Pro XL 5G vs Pixel 9 Pro XL 5G: Design and display
Last year, Google made a significant design change with the Pixel 9 series, bringing a new camera module. Now, the Pixel 10 Pro XL is expected to retain a similar design profile as the Pixel 9 Pro XL model, which will include an aluminium body, a flat screen and frame with curved edges. The dimensions are also expected to remain the same, but the new-gen is expected to be heavier, with 232 grams, due to the bigger battery. Google is also adding new colours, Moonstone and Jade.
In terms of display, the Pixel 10 Pro XL is expected to feature a similar display to its predecessor, with a 6.8-inch Super Actua display with a 120Hz refresh rate. The smartphone could also share a similar peak brightness of up to 3000nits. However, the new generation is expected to get a faster and more secure version of the ultrasonic fingerprint scanner.
Google Pixel 10 Pro XL 5G vs Pixel 9 Pro XL 5G: Camera
The Google Pixel 10 Pro XL 5G and Pixel 9 Pro XL 5G are also likely to share the same camera features. With a 50MP main camera, a 48MP ultrawide camera, and a 48MP telephoto lens with 5x optical zoom.
However, there are minor upgrades we can expect, such as new Macro Focus on ultrawide camera, and up to 100x digital zoom with the telephoto lens. Apart from these changes, Google can bring some upgrades on the software front to enhance the camera performance on the Pixel 10 Pro XL.
Google Pixel 10 Pro XL 5G vs Pixel 9 Pro XL 5G: Performance and battery
The Google Pixel 10 Pro XL 5G is expected to be powered by a new Tensor G5 chipset, likely to be made by TSMC. The smartphone could also offer up to 16GB of RAM with a base storage variant of 256GB. Therefore, we can expect some major performance improvements. Whereas, the Pixel 9 Pro XL 5G is powered by the Tensor G4 chip paired with up to 16GB RAM and a base storage variant of 128GB.
In terms of lasting performance, the Pixel 10 Pro XL is expected to be backed by a 5200mAh battery that may support 39W fast charging and 23W Qi2 wireless charging. On the other hand, the Pixel 9 Pro XL is backed by a 5060mAh battery that supports 37W fast charging and 23W wireless charging.
Google Pixel 10 Pro XL 5G vs Pixel 9 Pro XL 5G: Price
As per leaked US and Canadian prices for the Pixel 10 series, we expect no major price hikes this year. However, the Pixel 9 Pro XL came with a 128GB base variant, whereas the Pixel 10 Pro XL is expected to have 256GB as a base variant. Therefore, we expect a price difference due to a change in storage options.

Elon Musk's latest shocker to Google and OpenAI with Text-to-Video feature on Grok, but with a twist; only THESE users will have access

New Delhi: Elon Musk has added a new Text-to-Video feature to GrokAI. This feature of Grok AI will create videos based on text commands. It will give tough competition to the text-to-video generation of Google's Veo3 and OpenAI's Elon Musk has named this feature Imagine. As the name suggests, this feature will work to generate videos based on your imagination. How did Musk share this information? Elon Musk has given this information from his X handle. Musk said in his post that users will be able to use this new Imagine feature by updating their X app. However, users will be kept on the waitlist for the Grok Imagine feature. This Imagine feature of Grok will generate excellent videos through text commands. This feature will work on Grok's latest large language model. Update your app and request to be on the waitlist for @Grok Imagine — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) August 2, 2025 What is the controversy over Imagine? Like Gemini Veo3 and Sora, videos can be generated in it based on text prompts. However, a new spicy mode will be given in GrokAI's Imagine. In this, users will be able to create a 6-second video clip. However, controversy has also come up regarding this feature. Many users say that obscenity will be promoted through this feature. Who will get access to Imagine? X Premium users will currently be given beta access to the GrokAI Imagine feature. However, the company will choose selected users for this. Those who are heavy users of Grok AI will be given beta access to beta Imagine first. Apart from this, Valentine mode has also been added to GrokAI. Beta access to this feature has also been given to premium users. Valentine mode has an imaginary character, with whom users can interact and share their heart.

Godfather Of AI Warns Technology Could Invent Its Own Language: 'It Gets Scary...'

Geoffrey Hinton, regarded by many as the 'godfather of artificial intelligence' (AI), has warned that the technology could get out of hand if chatbots manage to develop their language. Currently, AI does its thinking in English, allowing developers to track what the technology is thinking, but there could come a point where humans might not understand what AI is planning to do, as per Mr Hinton. "Now it gets more scary if they develop their own internal languages for talking to each other," he said on an episode of the "One Decision" podcast that aired last month. "I wouldn't be surprised if they developed their own language for thinking, and we have no idea what they're thinking." Mr Hinton added that AI has already demonstrated that it can think terrible thoughts, and it is not unthinkable that the machines could eventually think in ways that humans cannot track or interpret. Warning about AI Mr Hinton laid the foundations for machine learning that is powering today's AI-based products and applications. However, the Nobel laureate grew wary of AI's future development and cut ties with his employer, Google, in order to speak more freely on the issue. "It will be comparable with the industrial revolution. But instead of exceeding people in physical strength, it's going to exceed people in intellectual ability. We have no experience of what it's like to have things smarter than us," said Mr Hinton at the time. "I am worried that the overall consequence of this might be systems more intelligent than us that eventually take control." Mr Hinton has been a big advocate of government regulation for the technology, especially given the unprecedented pace of development. His warning also comes in the backdrop of repeated instances of AI chatbots hallucinating thoughts. In April, OpenAI's internal tests revealed that its o3 and o4-mini AI models were hallucinating or making things up much more frequently than even the non-reasoning models, such as GPT-4o. The company said it did not have any idea why this was happening. In a technical report, OpenAI said, "more research is needed" to understand why hallucinations are getting worse as it scales up its reasoning models.
