Audit Google Pixel 10: Perfect fine

Asking that pixel 10 be more than what feels greedy.

Google’s non-pro pixel is fairly favorable to $ 799, which is significantly less than $ 999 PIKEL 10 PRO. Comes with some handsome upgrades such as Ki2 charging with built-in magnets. His and functions finally show a promise. This first includes a dedicated teleotel lens. It is proper from the leading and everything around the easy android phone. But if I’m greedy, then I have one request: better cameras.

The last cameras on the pixel 10 are completely fine. For someone who is not picky about the image quality, would be better than fine. And maybe I’d think they were fine too, that I didn’t give a damn with the knowledge that the cameras were on Last year’s model are better. And that’s because it’s until this year, Ne-Pro Pixel came with the same main and ultravid camera hardware as a pro. But we can’t have everything, and when Google added that the Google lens has reduced the other two back cameras in essence what is in the middle state Pikel 9a. So, Pixel 10 has a perfect small camera system, until you are too greedy.

Outside the camera situation, Pixel 10 comes with the same main upgrades as Pro phones this year: a new chip and some magnets. The Tensor G5 is a new processor in series 10, which I discovered to start colder than previous versions. The G5 is the first custom chipset made a TSMC, and handles a stronger load well. Regular 10 comes with 12 GB of RAM compared to 16GB at 10 PRO, and I noticed a little more tending on the thick websites than on the pro. But for non-professional The phone user, it processes most of the tasks is fine.

There is a lot on the device that is working on a new chip – which you can read more in that My pixel 10 Pro Reviews – And I doubt it contributes to the battery pack 10. The full day of moderate use is not a problem, but if you add some intense activities such as extended games, then you can start looking for a charger in the late afternoon. The average person will probably not bother, but power users will want a charger or motor bank to avoid battery anxiety at the end of the day.

AI is still a hit-or-faux, but hits become better. Pixel 10 does not offer Generative zoom zoom function AI If Pro and Pro XL have, but you get a magical hook, which conveys useful information based on what you do. And actually works. It is currently just in a handful of Google applications, but it can help you make something on your calendar in messages or suggest the destination when you open Google maps based on something you saved on your screens. I had a few more fake positive positions during pixel testing than I did with 10 pro; There was a time when it proposed information that was not relevant or offered to create a calendar event when I told a friend to “be there 30.” I still considered him more useful than not, and it was easily ignored when his suggestions are marked.

Pixel 10 has Ki2 with built-in magnets and is a pleasure. There is no case (Unlike the Samsung S25 S25 series phone) And I thoroughly enjoyed switching the phone on a night charger with pixels at the end of each day. With the addition of what is Basically MagsafeThe pixel series looks like a fairly complete alternative to the IOS ecosystem these days. Every night I put the phone on the charger, activating sleep mode, my pixel clock tracks and changed and modified modes. It’s not a new feature, but little moments like that, it is added during the day.

I spent a week with Pixel 10 Pro before I switched to regular 10, and there is not much that radically don’t feel different on a cheaper model – except the screen. Standard 10 comes with a 6,3-inch 1080p screen with refresh rate 120Hz, compared to a 1280p display at 10 pro. Its top brightness 3,000 niceta is enough to use the phone to be used on a sunny day, and 1080p is enough resolutions for the size screen. The screen looks more inclined to get off his top 120Hz refresh rate, which is fine, but it is a little transient when you move in the Nit Games app and suddenly view 60hz.

I also noticed several virgentations when using the phone to a bright light – darkness around the edges of the screen, as you could see in the photo. It is shown to be A well-known questionresolved by switching to the “natural” display color profile. All in all, it’s a nice screen, but you definitely get more wear more on a professional.

On the topic of getting more for more with 10 pro: cameras. The main camera of 48 megapixel pixels 10 does not seem all that differs from 10 months 50-megapixels f / 1.7 cameras – Until you reach the size of the sensor. Regular 10 uses type 1 / 2.0 inch sensor which is approximately half the size of the type 1 / 1.31 inch sensor in Pro models. The larger sensor will produce cleaner images with a better dynamic range, and that is the difference I felt, especially in portrait mode. Especially if light is low, your item moves, and if you use the 2X zoom option, portrait mode in the regular 10 is not as good as in professionalism. The images show more noise, fine detail as hair looks crunchy, and the insulation of objects is not as precise.

The portrait mode with a moving camera moving at high speed is about such a solid scenario as you can throw in the phone camera so it is not too surprising that Pixel 10 can’t handle the pixel 10. But it is one way that the smaller camera sensor results in noticeably worse performance. Outside Pixel Portrait 10 takes perfectly beautiful photos. Ultravid – also a smaller sensor than on the prosperous steering, is acceptable in a closed lighting. Phone lenses 5K is a convenient and definitive upgrade via the use of 5K digital zoom. Maybe telephoto lenses and the main camera killer are too looking into a $ 799, but I’ll keep both of them anyway.

Last year, Pixel 9 felt like the phone was that Android needed for a long time: something elegant, simple and durable. Pixel 10 takes the same model and mostly improves it, adding Ki2 and telephoto lens. The price remained the same, which is nothing to sneeze when prices of everything other classes.

Losing a higher camera may not be able to be a job for most people, but it’s a little hard to swallow if you know what you disappear about. Most people who buy this phone will not be loaded with that knowledge and I think the pixel 10 will be perfectly happy.
