androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-01-07 22:55:15

Google will launch the Pixel 10 series phones on August 20, and we’re excited about the standard Pixel 10. Leaked renders show that the base phone could offer a triple rear camera system for the first time, as a telephoto camera joins the main and ultrawide shooters. This is a major strategic shift for the standard Pixel flagship phone. However, this also signals Google’s acceptance that it’s no longer copying Apple’s strategy for base flagship phones.

My initial thought was: they're getting people used to transparent UIs for spatial computing (mixed reality environments where digital interfaces blend with the physical world). My immediate second thought was, 'wow, you can't read a thing - are they serious?'.
