The 16-year odyssey it took to emulate the Pioneer LaserActive

Robert Triggs / Android Authority TL;DR The Pixel 10 Pro and Pixel 10 Pro XL can shoot in 12-bit 4K video with dedicated third-party apps. The high bit depth is possible thanks to Samsung’s Smart-ISO Pro technology within the image sensor. The Pixel 10 and Pixel Camera app are still capped at 10-bit video capture. The new Google Pixel 10 series already sports some impressive new photo and video capabilities, but it appears that the Pro models are capable of even more than Google advertises.
