The upcoming Pixel 10 series is set to bring a notable upgrade to its base model – the addition of a telephoto camera. If the leak is true, this will be the first time a base Pixel model will pack a telephoto. The news comes from Android Headlines, which, in collaboration with Onleaks, have revealed the renders of the phone.
Pixel 10 with a telephoto
Upon closer inspection, you can see a total of three lenses on the back, and the new one is reportedly a telephoto. While the design remains largely unchanged from its predecessor, the Pixel 9, this move aims to further distinguish the base Pixel 10 from the increasingly competitive Pixel A series.
According to the source, the Pixel 10 retains the same flat 6.3-inch display with a centered punch hole and nearly identical dimensions to the Pixel 9. The camera module, however, adds a significant bump in thickness, and the protrusion of which is reportedly 3.4 mm. While the third lens could also be a macro or a depth camera, this increase in protrusion as compared to the Pixel 9a suggests it’s a telephoto.
Notably, the Pixel 10 is also likely to use a smaller sensor for the telephoto as compared to the Pro model. So, don’t expect the exact same imaging capability from the telephoto as compared to the more expensive model. Nonetheless, this is a leaked render, and the prediction may or may not materialize. So readers are advised to take it with a pinch of salt.
The Pixel 10 series is expected to launch later this year and will mark the 10th iteration of Google’s flagship smartphone line. Other than the third lens on the back, most other aspects, including the design and dimensions, are reportedly the same as the Pixel 9.
