Photo: Abby Ferguson Last week, Google announced its Pixel 10 phone lineup, which includes the Pixel 10, 10 Pro, 10 Pro XL and 10 Pro Fold. The standard Pixel 10 saw the most significant camera changes, while the three Pro models kept the same camera hardware as the previous generation.
You can see more details of the four phones and how the Pixel 10 stacks up next to the Pixel 9 on paper in our detailed comparison.
While the hardware remains consistent in the Pro phones, Google said it made other improvements. Those promised upgrades take the form of largely AI-based software changes and a Tensor G5 chip. We've had the opportunity to take the Pixel 10 Pro XL around for a few days, testing the cameras to share a sample gallery with you all.
We shot the phone in Raw + JPG mode for most of the testing period so that you can check out the Raw files as well. However, for those looking forward to picking up a Pixel phone to use Raw files, be aware that accessing them on anything other than your phone isn't very straightforward.
One of the features that differentiates the Pro and Pro XL models from the other devices in the lineup is Pro Res Zoom up to 100x instead of 20x. Google says this feature uses a combination of cropping and generative AI. We made sure to test out the Pro Res Zoom feature, and included the processed and unprocessed versions so you can compare. The generative AI results are often very lackluster, but given how intense the crop is, it doesn't have much information to work with.

Google's latest flagship lineup is now available for preorder. The Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro and Pixel 10 Pro XL will be fully released on August 28, though the Pixel 10 Pro Fold won't be widely available until October 9.
