Yet another 'Pixel Drop' confirms wealth of Pixel 10, 10 Pro, 10 Pro XL, and 10 Pro Fold info
There's a lovely family portrait depicting the Pixel 10 Pro Fold in that bland gray shade next to a black-coated 10 Pro XL, a non-XL Pixel 10 Pro in a decidedly eye-catching Jade colorway, and a "vanilla" Pixel 10 in an even flashier blue hue, and the latter model is pictured in the same gorgeous color by itself as well.
What a gorgeous Pixel 10 color! | Image Credit -- Evan Blass on X Last year's Pixel 9, remember, doesn't rock this color, and perhaps more importantly, it appears that the Pixel 10 family will gain some built-in magnets to support new wireless charging accessories similar to Apple's MagSafe technology. According to a previous rumor, these will be called Pixelsnaps, lacking magnets themselves and thus looking set to improve the convenience and possibly the speed of the Google-made phones' wireless charging functionality. Naturally, we can expect this feature to be supported across the entire Pixel 10 lineup, with other details separating its members. The 10 Pro and 10 Pro XL, for instance, will share a "Pro" triple rear camera system, while the base Pixel 10 and the 10 Pro Fold will apparently settle for "advanced" triple snapper setups.

Intriguingly, the Pixel 10 Pro Fold 's camera system is not detailed in these newly leaked documents and images, with the Pixel 10 Pro duo looking guaranteed to pack a 50MP primary sensor, 48MP secondary ultrawide lens, and get this, up to 100x (!!!) Pro Res Zoom support. The non-Pro Pixel 10 , meanwhile, will come with a 48MP main camera, a 13MP ultra-wide-angle lens, and "only" 20x Super Res Zoom capabilities. More distinctions to highlight, that is, as well as more reasons to be excited about the Pixel 10 handset series expected to see daylight in just a few weeks. For instance, Google's proprietary Extreme Battery Saver technology promises to squeeze as much as 100 hours (!!!) of battery life out of the Pixel 10 , 10 Pro, and 10 Pro XL, with the Pixel 10 Pro Fold capable of going up to 72 hours without a recharge.
Those numbers are not radically different from what Big G currently advertises for the Pixel 9 family, but they're still remarkable when you consider the screen sizes, screen quality, and raw power tipped for the Pixel 10 quartet.
The Pixel 10 Pro Fold looks undeniably amazing even in a bland gray color. | Image Credit -- Evan Blass on X Yes, that Google Tensor G5 chipset is widely expected to bring major performance improvements over the Tensor G4 while also keeping the energy efficiency high and thus helping, for instance, those massive 8 and 6.4-inch displays of the Pixel 10 Pro Fold deliver (more than) satisfying running times between charges.
The Pixel 10 and 10 Pro are unsurprisingly set to share a 6.3-inch screen diagonal (although the Pro will clearly have a "Super Actua" advantage as far as display performance is concerned), while the Pixel 10 Pro XL is confirmed (for the umpteenth time) to essentially keep its predecessor's 6.8-inch Super Actua panel unchanged.
Yes, the Pixel Watch 4 (in two sizes) is also coming soon. | Image Credit -- Evan Blass on X Basically, there aren't a lot of unexpected revelations in today's huge leak, but Google has fewer and fewer surprises up its sleeve, and yes, that goes for the Pixel Watch 4 and a new Pixel Buds Pro 2 color option, which are also pictured ahead of their official August announcement.

iPhone 17 Air's shockingly thin battery poses for the camera
Following a slightly confusing turn of events, we saw a report from last week claiming to showcase the iPhone 17 Air's battery, which later turned out to be the cell for the iPhone 17 Pro. We now have actual images of the iPhone 17 Air battery thanks to a post on Korean blog Naver. The images showcase a similar-looking L-shaped battery encased in a steel sheet like the iPhone 17 Pro's battery. iPhone 17 Air battery compared to iPhone 17 Pro's battery As per the new report, iPhone 17 Air's battery is just 2.49mm thick, including the metal casing. That's about three credit cards stacked on top of each other. As we can see in the second image, the 17 Air's battery is noticeably thinner compared to the 17 Pro's. This will be needed as Apple's thinnest phone to date is allegedly just 5.5 mm thick. A thin device like that will naturally feature less battery capacity than what we're used to. As per the latest rumors, the 17 Air's cell packs around 2,900 mAh of charge – a far cry from the iPhone 16 Plus (which the 17 Air is replacing) and its 4,674mAh cell. iPhone 17 Air (bottom) compared to iPhone 16 Plus (top) The iPhone 13 mini from 2021 was the last iPhone to feature a sub-3,000mAh battery, and that device powered a 5.4-inch screen, whereas the 17 Air is rumored to bring a 6.9-inch display. It remains to be seen if Apple will employ a silicon-carbon (Si/C) battery to help boost the 17 Air's endurance. Source (in Korean)

iPhone 17 projected to tank in value faster than Galaxy S26
Galaxy S25 Ultra and iPhone 16 Pro Max | Image Credits - PhoneArena For the longest time, Apple's iPhone was the top smartphone for value retention. While the iPhone 16 is still depreciating at a slower rate than the Galaxy S25, the gap has been narrowing, and if the current trend continues, the Galaxy S26 might outdo the iPhone 17 in holding start losing value the moment you unbox them. While this may not matter to you if you keep the same phone for three and a half years - which is the average upgrade cycle - or more, it's something to take into account if you care about resale value. The iPhone had traditionally held its value better than Android phones, but SellCell's latest report shows that the depreciation rate has been increasing with each successive generation. As an example, the 2020 iPhone 12 series had lost 25.2% of its value nine months after its release. The iPhone 15 had depreciated by 34.3% within the first nine months. For the iPhone 16 , that figure stands at around 34.7%. iPhone vs Galaxy S vs Galaxy Z Fold vs Pixel depreciation over the years. | Image Credit - SellCell The reverse appears to be true for Samsung Galaxy S series phones, with the recent generations getting better at resisting depreciation. In its fifth month, the Galaxy S22 had lost a staggering 51.9% of its value. During the same period, the Galaxy S24 had plunged in value by 47.3%. The Galaxy S25 faced a depreciation of 46.6 percent in its first five months. It's not just the Galaxy S25 that's depreciating at a slower rate than its predecessors. The same appears to be true for Samsung's foldable phones as well as the Google Pixel 9. It appears that Samsung and Google's latest phones are depreciating at a slower rate due their compelling AI features. Apple, on the other hand, is behind in AI, which might explain why the iPhone 16 is losing value at a faster clip than prior generations. Regardless, the iPhone 16 is still ahead of the pack when it comes to depreciation. It had lost 35.4% of its value five months after it went on sale, compared to Galaxy S25 's depreciation rate of 46.6% and Pixel 9 's rate of 56.9%. That said, if the current trend persists, by mid-2026, the Galaxy S and the iPhone may lose value at a similar rate, with Samsung's lineup potentially surpassing Apple's smartphones in value retention between mid-2026 and 2028. The Galaxy S26 might hold its value better than the iPhone 17 if things keep heading in the same direction. | Image Credit - SellCel Of course, the rumored iPhone 17 might flip the trend on its head with its redesigned rear and triple 48MP camera system. The phone is unlikely to be markedly superior to the Galaxy S26 , though, which could feature AI tools from OpenAI and Perplexity AI to supplement those already offered by Google's Gemini. Based on that, it's safe to assume that in the not-so-distant future, the Galaxy S, and not the iPhone, will command the highest price in the second-hand market.
