Google's best camera and screen in its biggest Pixel, with a Tensor chip that is efficient rather than fast.

The Pixel 10 Pro XL, released on August 28, 2025 at $1,199, is the large version of Google's flagship: a 6.8 inch Super Actua LTPO OLED at 1 to 120Hz, 16GB of memory and up to 1TB of storage around the Tensor G5. It gets the biggest battery in the range, 5,200mAh, and the fastest charging Google has shipped, 45W wired and 25W over Qi2.2 with Pixelsnap magnets, plus seven years of Android and security updates.
The cameras are the reason to buy it: a 50MP main, a 48MP ultrawide and a 48MP 5x telephoto, with Pro Res Zoom using on device generative AI to reach 100x, and a 42MP selfie camera. Reviewers ranked it among the most consistent camera phones of 2025, especially for photographing people, and the display is bright and accurate. The weak spot is the chip: the Tensor G5 is efficient, but its graphics fall behind Snapdragon and Apple in demanding games and benchmarks, and the AI zoom can invent detail at its extremes.
Camera, battery, software and screen all earn A grades, performance is a B and innovation a C, and it is an A, level with the Pixel 10 Pro.
