Google Pixel 10 colour leaks hint at bold shades and AI-powered features ahead of launch

Google appears to be gearing up for the launch of its upcoming flagship series, the Pixel 10 lineup. Fresh leaks have surfaced online, offering a look at possible colour variants and design details for the Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro, and Pixel 10 Pro XL. These new options are expected to give the latest models a fresh identity compared to their predecessors.

According to a report by Mystic Leaks, the Pixel 10 could be released in Obsidian (black), Blue, Iris (purple), and Limoncello (yellow). While Obsidian continues to be a familiar choice in Google’s colour range, the return of Blue brings back tones previously seen in models like the Pixel 2 and Pixel 4a. Limoncello might be introduced as a lighter shade alternative, potentially replacing options like Porcelain. The inclusion of Iris suggests Google may be recycling successful hues from earlier models such as the Pixel 9a.

For the Pixel 10 Pro and the Pixel 10 Pro XL, the leaked information points to shades like Obsidian, Green, Sterling (grey), and Porcelain. Sterling may offer a neutral tone somewhere between black and white, while Green could resemble the Mint of the Pixel 8 Pro or the Aloe seen on the Pixel 8a. Both Porcelain and Obsidian are expected to continue as staple colours for Google’s top-tier offerings.

Beyond the colour palette, more details have emerged about the phone’s design and feature set. A series of promotional images were reportedly leaked from a marketing shoot and shared briefly on social media by the tipster @MarksgonePublic on X. Although these images were later taken down, they revealed a glimpse of storyboards and promotional visuals. The campaign appears to carry the tagline “Ask more of your phone,” which hints at the integration of AI features introduced at Google’s I/O 2025 developer conference.

The Pixel 10 is set to heavily incorporate artificial intelligence, with several innovative features expected. Among them is “Video Generative ML,” an AI-driven video editing tool integrated into Google Photos. Another feature, “Speak-to-Tweak,” allows users to modify images using voice commands. Additionally, “Sketch-to-Image” enables hand-drawn sketches to be transformed into lifelike visuals.

Google generally unveils its flagship Pixel smartphones in late summer, and the Pixel 10 is likely to follow suit. A launch is anticipated around August 2025, with the new devices expected to come equipped with the generative AI tools showcased at the Google I/O 2025 event.
