The Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold could look familiar

The Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold is expected to launch later this year, along with the rest of the Pixel 10 lineup. However, according to Android Headlines, don’t expect to see many changes compared to the current Pixel 9 Pro Fold.

Google’s upcoming foldable phone is anticipated to measure 155.2 x 150.4 x 5.3 mm. This is nearly identical to the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, which has dimensions of 155.2 mm x 150.2 mm x 5.1 mm when unfolded. As a result, the 2025 model could be slightly thicker than the current version.

If this is true, it means the entire Google Pixel 10 lineup will have the same design and dimensions as the Pixel 9 lineup. In other words, the biggest changes will occur to each phone internally.

Circling back around to the Pixel 10 Pro Fold, the phone is expected to feature a Tensor G5 processor, Google’s first chipset manufactured by TSMC, not Samsung like previous versions. This chip is being built on TSMC’s 3nm N3E process, the same node used in Apple’s A18 Pro. The phone is also expected to feature 16GB of RAM and launch with 256GB of storage. It is unclear what the screen sizes for the foldable will be. The current model features a 6.3-inch cover display and an 8-inch internal display, which could simply be duplicated on the next model.

The Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro, Pixel 10 Pro XL, and Pixel 10 Pro Fold are anticipated to launch in August. This timing is expected to be after Samsung unveils its Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7, but before Apple announces the iPhone 17 series, which is anticipated to introduce an iPhone Air model for the first time.

It is currently unknown how much the Pixel 10 Pro Fold will cost, but one rumor suggests that its starting price might be slightly lower than the current model. The Pixel 9 Pro Fold starts at $1,799 in the U.S.

The iPhone 18 Pro could see a major design change

If the iPhone 18 release schedule wasn't enough of a shift, it looks like the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max models could switch to under-screen Face ID and have only a small camera in the top-left corner of the screen. The news comes from Digital Chat Station on Weibo, a leaker with an inside hook into Apple's supply chain.

"Well, I checked with the Apple supply chain a few days ago. The iPhone 18/18 Pro Max is indeed testing 3D faces under the screen, with a single HIAA hole; the iPhone 8/18 Air is a regular 2+1 hole," they write (as translated by Google.)

I’ll buy the Pixel Watch 4 if Google changes this one feature
The display on the Google Pixel Watch 3.

Personally, the Google Pixel Watch 3 was the success story of 2024. In just three generations, Google debuted the Pixel Watch, a pretty terrible smartwatch, improved it massively for the Pixel Watch 2, and then perfected it with the Pixel Watch 3. And I'll admit, it's a comeback story I wasn't expecting to see. Sure, I'd noticed the Pixel Watch 2 was pretty good, but at no point did I expect it to smash through the glass ceiling in my yearning heart marked "Only Samsung Galaxy Watches here". But smash through it did, and through the shards of raining glass it rose, like an ascending angel.

Alright, so I'm laying it on a little thick. But it's important to note quite how desirable the Pixel Watch has become in the last year. I'm even considering giving up my own hard-earned cash in return for the Google Pixel Watch 4 when it releases later this year. Except, there's one little issue I have with the Pixel Watches, and have had since the beginning. And until that one problem is changed, I can't see myself buying the Pixel Watch 4, or any future Pixel Watch.

Android’s desktop mode for phones is taking shape, and it looks familiar

Google’s mobile operating system comes with a hidden desktop mode that opens on an external screen, mimicking what you would get from a computing interface. However, it is buried within the developer mode, and it's far from polished to get any serious work done. 

The company, however, continues building a next-gen experience for Android’s native desktop mode. The overarching idea is to turn your phone and tablet into a desktop computing device. Mishaal Rahman, over at Android Authority, was able to enable this mode in the latest beta build of Android 16, though he warns that it might not be ready for the stable release in the coming months.
