We still haven’t recovered from the launch of the Pixel 9, and we’re already thinking about the next generation; but considering the time it takes to produce a mobile phone, it’s not so strange that some details of its development have already leaked, as has just happened.
In Android Titles got the key names Google mobile phones that will launch throughout 2025; and while the names alone say nothing, apart from the taste of the engineers, together they reveal details about the company’s plans for its next smartphones.
Most importantly, five names have been revealed: Tegu, Frankel, Blazer, Mustang and Rango; in other words, Google to launch five devices
That leaves us with four devices, and that means Google will not change its product range by 2025; As it did this year, it will introduce four phones from the Pixel 10 line. In part, this isn’t so strange, and it’s not an indicator of the success of the Pixel 9 line; as we’ve said before, companies have to prepare their launches well in advance, and the choice of the four models was likely made before the Pixel 9 launched. There can be last-minute changes, and they have happened in the past, but that would be rare unless a particular device was so successful that it was worth canceling it altogether. So far, there’s no indication of such a failure.
Therefore, Google remains true to its positions in some of the most controversial or curious decisions, such as the Google Pixel 9 Pro XL. In this generation, the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro are similar in size, and those who need or prefer a larger phone should do so. pay more for the XL model. Whether this decision was the right one is something that only Google knows for now, but for now everything indicates that it will repeat it in the Pixel 10. Because the introduction of a foldable in the range will also be repeated, with the Pixel 10 Pro Fold.
On this occasion, the code names of the new Pixel They are based on horse breedswhile the Pixel 9’s are based on reptile breeds (which is why the Pixel 9a is “Tegu”). According to this leak, the Pixel 10 is called “Frankel,” the Pixel 10 Pro is “Blazer,” the Pixel 10 Pro XL is “Mustang,” and the Pixel 10 Pro Fold is “Rango.”
While no surprises are expected in the Pixel 10 lineup, Google will make up for it with the biggest “hardware” change in modern Pixel history. The Pixel 10 is expected to be the first to use the new Tensor processors based on the TSMC manufacturing process; Until now, they were based on Samsung technology, and the delay in switching to TSMC was seen this year, with chips that offer virtually no difference compared to last year.
