The Ultimate Pixel Experience - A Worthy Upgrade!

As a long-time Pixel user, I just upgraded from the Pixel 9 Pro XL, and I am absolutely blown away by the Pixel 10 Pro XL. Google has refined the experience to near perfection.
Performance & AI: The new Tensor chip is incredibly fast. Apps open instantly, scrolling is buttery smooth, and the AI features are smarter than ever. Call Screen is even better at filtering spam, and the on-device AI for things like photo editing and translation is noticeably quicker. The phone feels incredibly responsive and intelligent.
Camera: The camera is, without a doubt, the best I've ever used. The photos are stunningly detailed and the colors are true-to-life. Low-light performance is phenomenal, capturing bright, clean shots in situations where my old phone would have struggled. The upgrades to the telephoto lens are also impressive, delivering crisp zoom shots. It's a true point-and-shoot powerhouse.
Display & Battery: The display is gorgeous—bright, vibrant, and easily visible even in direct sunlight. The battery life is a significant improvement; I'm comfortably ending my day with plenty of charge left, even with heavy use. It also charges very quickly with my 45W Google charger.
Ecosystem: The real magic is how seamlessly it integrates with my other devices. The connection with my Pixel Watch 3 is flawless, and my Pixel Buds Pro 2 pair instantly. Everything just works together in a way that feels effortless and cohesive.
If you're upgrading from an older Pixel or are deep in the Google ecosystem, this is a must-buy. It's the smartest, most helpful phone on the market.

New owner of a Pixel 10 Pro XL and very satisfied with the device. I was coming from a Fold 6 but the battery life was atrocious (due to the big screen). So, I went back to a regular slab phone and chose the XL for the bigger screen along with the battery bump. I can pull 1.5 days on constantly heavy use.
Minor annoyances YMMV: Sometimes while multitasking, some apps might display blank. I'm not sure if it's a RAM stuttering issue, but once you clear the app and reload it, everything seems fine.
I started using Gemini Pro a little bit more and it is quite handy, especially when using your calendar and doing research about a specific subject. I'm not 100% sold on it, but it is a free 1-year trial, so I'm not sure if I would keep it.
Cameras are just a chef's kiss! Any lighting, any time of day.
So far, I'm extremely happy with my Pixel, and I'd like to add that the PixelSnap is very convenient.

Okay, so I’ve had the Pixel 10 Pro XL for a few weeks now, and I’ve gotta say… I’m genuinely impressed. I don’t usually gush about tech, but this phone? It’s something else.
First Impressions From the moment I unboxed it, I knew I made the right choice. It’s sleek, solid, and just feels premium in your hand. The screen is massive and gorgeous—watching videos or scrolling through photos is a total treat.
The Camera Is Wild I’m not a professional photographer, but this phone makes me feel like one. The photos are crisp, vibrant, and the AI editing tools are actually useful (not gimmicky). I’ve taken some shots that made my friends ask, “Wait, you took that on your phone?”
Battery & Speed It’s fast. Like, really fast. Apps open instantly, multitasking is smooth, and I haven’t had a single hiccup. Plus, the battery easily lasts me all day—even with heavy use. No more scrambling for a charger by dinner.
Smart Features That Actually Help The AI stuff is surprisingly intuitive. It predicts what I need, helps me write better texts, and even cleans up background noise during calls. It’s like having a little assistant in my pocket.
Final Thoughts Honestly, I’m just happy with it. I wanted a phone that felt like an upgrade—not just in specs, but in everyday experience. And the Pixel 10 Pro XL delivers. It’s reliable, fun to use, and makes me feel like I made a smart choice.
If you’re thinking about getting one, I’d say go for it. I’m loving mine more every day.

I couldn’t be happier with this purchase. The product feels premium, performs exactly as advertised, and exceeded my expectations in both design and functionality. Setup was quick and simple, and it has been working flawlessly since day one. The build quality is solid, the features are practical, and the overall value is excellent for the price. I’ve used similar products before, but this one really stands out. Highly recommended to anyone considering it—you won’t be disappointed!

Must have if you are looking for flagship with Android OS , its unparalleled AI experience with the Tensor G5 chip and a stunningly bright display. The camera system, featuring a best-in-class main lens and a phenomenal 100x Pro Res Zoom, continues Google's tradition of setting the photography standard.

Just its name you know that this phone is good.
1. the shape that we are familiar boxy edges makes for good elegant looks
2. Screen realestate is big bright enough under the sun still usable
3. Sound it has better speakers now and it actually sounds louder than previous and on other brands. It has a good earpiece and bottom speaker both are in the right spot and you cannot just accidentally cover them.
4. Battery is a little bit bigger than before so it helps you a bit more in a daily basis you can expect at least 30% at the end of the day of normal use with mobile data and camera.
5. The finger print sensor is on the right place and its fast enough i dont get it when people say its still slow..
6. Features that you expect when using a pixel phone very good front and back cameras amazing pictures and awesome videos.
7. TENSOR people always says it is still slow.. i know why i bought the pixel i didnt bought it becusse i wanted to play games on it.. i want a dependable with a twist android phone..
8. Wireless charging now one of the fastest wired and wireless charging phone out there.. with magnets too thats a plus and will always be convenient.
9. Water ressistance one of the best out there.. but i do not submerge any phone underwater anyways.. ill use a dedicated action camera for that one.
10. Its a pixel phone best stock android and best implementation of optimization out there.. it does not force you to sign in for every app it does not randomlly needing an update for each app on two different app store.. (clears throat) iykyk .. and it function as expected.. a great phone indeed.

Switched from an iPhone after 10 years. The Pixel is a great phone. I love the fact that it's running a pure android experience. The UI looks amazing and very user friendly if you're coming from an iPhone. The AI and camera working together make photos look so good. The modem is probably the only con on the phone. I'm positive it can be improved with firmware updates, I still get service everywhere I go but people on the other end have complained it sounds like static sometimes. But I just redial their number and it works just fine.

I have heard a lot about Google Pixel phone. First time I have changed my mind to switch from Apple to Google and I think my decision is right. This phone camera clarity is far better then any other phone. Display and touch is too smooth. Features/Functions are user friendly. Simply loved it. Thanks Google for making such a nice phone!

I have always had good pixel phones. This 10 pro xl is a nice upgrade to the 8 pro. Setting up the phone was pretty easy. I did have to call my phone provider to switch the ESIM. I am impressed with the picture quality. The new features are amazing. I especially love the password app where I can locate my passwords instead of password manager. The battery life seems to be great so far. The phone was getting hot but that went away. For fast charging you need the 45W plug. I am having issues connecting my pixel buds pro earbuds though. They keep reconnecting over and over again until they disconnect. I also wished the colors for the pro xl were different. There were no really pretty color to choose from tbh. I love the phone so far though. You won't regret it.

All good. Love the camera and the 100x ProRes. Got some amazing pictures with it, which I'll be uploading here. These were really shot at 100x. Love the camera.
Seamless transfer of apps and data from my older Pixel phone. Barely took 20mins.
But I see the apps freeze momentarily. Especially the Phone app. I can't mute/unmute quickly because of it. Never had this issue on my Pixel 7A. It could be fixed with a software update.

This phone checks all the boxes without the bloatware. It's camera and video camera outshine the competition (which is no surprise) as the Pixels typically set the bar for what a smartphone can do with the combination of its hardware and AI assisted point and shoot feats.
Battery is easily all-day. You can feel the sturdy quality construction in your hands before you put a case on it. Best Buy allowed me to purchase this phone with an awesome trade-in offer towards an unlocked model at full-retail. Not many carriers are warm to that idea. Consider that before you go lock in somewhere else. Side note, I used to work for one of the major carriers, so when I say this is the way, this IS the way. Put the difference (minus trade) on to you Best Buy card with no interest if you want to spread it out a bit. Unless you don’t mind the 3 yr commitments and all that goes with it.

For a long time, I was seriously considering switching to an iPhone, but I am so incredibly glad I gave Pixel a try instead. I’ve become such a fan of these phones that I actually passed my Pixel 8 Pro down to my wife so I could upgrade to the new Pixel 10 Pro XL!
The Moonstone color is absolutely stunning in person, it has a sophisticated, premium look that really stands out. I also picked up the official Google Pixelsnap case in Moonstone. It fits the phone perfectly, feels great in the hand, and makes using magnetic accessories so easy.
Everything is fast and smooth thanks to the Tensor G5 chip, and the integration with my Pixel Watch 3 is flawless. Whether I’m getting notifications or using the watch for fitness tracking, the two devices work perfectly together. If you’re on the fence about leaving Apple, don't be, this phone is a game-changer.
