Despite tech companies’ efforts to maintain secrecy around new devices, leaks often reveal more than intended. Google, in particular, has been known for its inability to keep details under wraps. Recent leaks have unveiled significant information about the upcoming Pixel 10 series. This time, a prototype of the unreleased Google Pixel 10 Pro has surfaced, showcased on the Chinese auction platform Goofish, raising eyebrows among enthusiasts.
The images posted in the listing provide a partial view of the device, revealing both its front and back. Although the display is obscured, the trim bezels are visible and appear notably slimmer. True to its design evolution, the Pixel 10 Pro features a hole-punch cutout for the front-facing camera, a hallmark of Google’s recent models.
A distinguishing characteristic that indicates this is a prototype lies in the back area. The lower section, adorned with unique patterns beneath the logo, suggests it is a pre-production unit. Typically, these designs are used by companies like Google for identification purposes, hinting that they will not appear in the final consumer version.
While this prototype is a work in progress, it closely resembles what might be the final product. Sources have previously suggested that the Pixel 10 Pro may not stray too far from its predecessor in terms of design. It is expected to feature a camera bar that is thinner and less pronounced than that of the Pixel 9 Pro, though this detail is not captured in the images available.
In a surprising twist, the listing includes a photograph of the phone’s suspected motherboard, likely intended to boost the credibility of the sale.
As Google prepares to launch the Pixel 10 series in the upcoming months, these leaks are sure to heighten anticipation among fans of the brand. However, the conservative design choices observed in the leaked images may raise questions about their market viability.
