2 The G5 is regarded as a potential breakthrough for better thermal control and battery use—much rides on its success 

Camera

1 Same camera hardware as its predecessor: triple rear setup (50 MP main, 48 MP ultrawide, 48 MP telephoto) & 42 MP selfie 

2 No major sensor changes, but improved macro/tele-macro performance is anticipated using software adjustments to the telephoto + ultrawide combo .

Battery & Charging

1 Pixel 10 Pro: ~4,870 mAh (vs. ~4,700 mAh on Pixel 9 Pro).

2 Pixel 10 Pro XL: ~5,200 mAh—the largest battery ever in a Pixel

3 Charging: 29 W wired (Pro), 39 W wired (Pro XL), with 15 W Qi2 wireless on both
