I've bought every flagship Google Pixel phone since the first - but 2025 has me reconsidering


The standard Pixel 10 might just be Google's best kind of problem.

Whether it's pulled from last year's Pixel 9 Pro Fold or another older model, having a greater optical zoom range will allow users to capture distant subjects with more clarity and detail. If the rumored 3nm design and TSMC-based manufacturing (versus Samsung Foundry) are to be realized, we may finally be looking at a system processor that delivers snappy day-to-day performance while also reliably maintaining heat and power usage. To be clear, I'm not expecting the Tensor G5 to set new benchmark high scores or compete closely with the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra or OnePlus 13; that's never really been the draw of Google's in-house silicon.
