The speakers on the Pixel 10 Pro are good. Solid smartphone speakers that got meaningfully better from the Pixel 9 Pro.
What improved:
The earpiece speaker at the top is finally good. Previous Pixels had a clear mismatch between the bottom speaker (decent) and top earpiece (weaker). Google fixed that. Both speakers now sound matched, making stereo content feel like actual stereo.
Bass is be
Good news: The fingerprint sensor on the Pixel 10 Pro is noticeably faster than the Pixel 9 Pro. Google upgraded the ultrasonic sensor and it shows.
How fast?
Place your finger on the sensor and the phone unlocks almost instantly. Not quite as fast as Samsung's latest phones, but fast enough that you won't be frustrated.
The ultrasonic advantage:
Unlike optical sensors that photograph
Night photography is where Pixel phones have always shined, and the Pixel 10 Pro continues that tradition. This is genuinely the best low-light camera in a smartphone.
What Night Sight does:
Instead of one photo, the camera captures multiple shots at different exposures over 3-6 seconds. The Tensor G5 combines these using AI to create an image with far more detail than any single shot could
Voice Translate is probably the most futuristic feature on the Pixel 10 Pro, and it actually works.
The basic idea:
You're on a call with someone who speaks a different language. Enable Voice Translate, pick their language, and start talking. The AI translates what you say and speaks to them in your voice, in their language. When they respond, you hear their words in English, in what sounds
Think of these as the same phone in two sizes. Everything important is identical. The differences are physical.
The size factor:
The Pixel 10 Pro has a 6.3-inch screen. Comfortable one-handed use. Fits easily in pockets. Around 206 grams.
The Pixel 10 Pro XL has a 6.8-inch screen. Two-handed operation basically required. At 231 grams, you'll feel it. But the bigger screen is great for video
Let me be straight: the Pixel 10 Pro handles gaming capably, but it's not a gaming phone.
Google designed the Tensor G5 chip to excel at AI tasks. Photo processing, on-device language models, computational photography. Raw gaming performance wasn't the priority.
What works well:
Most mobile games run fine. Minecraft at high settings, stable 60fps. Call of Duty Mobile, PUBG at balanced graph
Sort of, but probably not in the way you're thinking.
The Pixel 10 Pro doesn't record 8K video from its sensor. What happens is more interesting.
The actual process:
You record in 4K. With Video Boost enabled, your footage uploads to Google's servers when you're on WiFi and charging. Google's AI processes the video, enhances it, and upscales to 8K. Hours or a day later, you download the 8K
Here's the honest answer: The Pixel 10 Pro is water resistant, not waterproof. There's a real difference, and it matters for how you should actually use your phone.
The IP68 rating means your phone should survive everyday accidents. Dropped it in the sink? You're probably fine. Got caught in a rainstorm? No problem. Spilled your drink on it? Wipe it off and move on.
What you shouldn't do:

The Pixel 10 Pro sold in the United States does not include a physical SIM card slot. It uses eSIM exclusively, with support for two active eSIM profiles simultaneously.
The Pixel 10 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro both deliver flagship-level photography, but with distinct approaches and strengths.
