Will the next-generation Google Pixel smartphones get an extra camera on the back? If the latest leaked images from OnLeaks are to be believed, it looks like Google has some exciting upgrades in the works. OnLeaks has proven to be a reliable source for early phone leaks in the past, which lends further weight to these rumors.
New camera configuration with periscope lens
The leaked images show a relatively large camera island on what is said to be the Google Pixel 10 series. It houses two standard lenses as well as a third, exciting novelty: a periscope lens. This would be a big change for Google, as it would allow for optical zoom – something that has been missing from the Pixel series so far. Typically, periscope cameras have a zoom range of between 3x and 5x, which would give users significantly more flexibility in their photography.
When will the Google Pixel 10 be released?
There is currently no official information on when the Google Pixel 10 will launch. Based on past launch patterns, we can expect the phone to be unveiled in the fall of 2024. Until then, we will keep an eye out for further leaks and official statements from Google.
Will the Pixel 10 be the first model to truly challenge its competitors when it comes to zoom capabilities? That remains to be seen, but the leaks give reason for optimism for photography enthusiasts.
