Google's Pixel 10 series features Tensor G5 chips, all-day battery life, proactive Gemini AI integration, and seven years of guaranteed updates.

The Pixel 10 Pro steps things up with a brighter 6.3-inch OLED display, upgraded materials, and Google’s best-in-class triple-lens camera system. You’re getting the wide, ultra-wide, and a new 5x telephoto lens that makes the Pro stand out as Google’s photography champ.

Google didn’t just give the Fitbit app a makeover. It said that coaching and AI were at the core of the redesign, and that the “entire app was rebuilt so the health coach can understand your goals, build your plan, contextualize your metrics and bring insights at the right moments.”

Google is rolling out an update for Gemini that will allow the AI chatbot to “remember” your past conversations without prompting. With the setting turned on, Gemini will automatically recall your “key details and preferences” and use them to personalize its output.

AI on smartphones so far has been about chatbots and prompts and actions. Google wants to bring a more proactive approach to things using the new system that it's calling Magic Cue. Magic Cue uses the Tensor G5 chip and local LLM (Google’s Nano models) to automatically surface information in the right context.
