Google will formally announce the Pixel 10 vary on 20 August, however we’re not precisely counting down the times.
Don’t get me fallacious – we’re all wanting ahead to taking the Google Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Professional, and Pixel 10 Professional Fold for a spin. The Pixel 9 collection is a favorite of many on the Tech Advisor workforce, and I personally use the Google Pixel 9 Professional on the uncommon event after I’m not reviewing a cellphone.
It’s simply that the Pixel 10, 10 Professional and 10 Professional XL are recognized portions at this level. In current days, we’ve seen convincing renders of the total vary of color choices for all telephones, courtesy of Android Headlines.
A few of these shades look fairly nice, whereas others… not a lot. The ten Professional, 10 Professional XL and 10 Professional Fold can be found in the identical shades, however there are a number of totally different ones for the common Pixel 10.
So, we thought now could be the proper time to rank these Pixel 10 collection colors, beginning with my least favorite
7. Limoncello (Pixel 10 solely)
What’s there to say in regards to the tone dubbed ‘Limoncello’, aside from that it’s worthy of the identify? Just like the candy Italian liquor it’s named after, this Pixel 10 shade is faintly toxic-looking and makes me really feel barely queasy. Nonetheless, you’ll be able to’t deny that it’s a classier identify than Mountain Dew, which might have been equally becoming.
6. Obsidian (Pixel 10, 10 Professional and 10 Professional XL)
My objection to Obsidian is totally totally different in nature to that of Limoncello. There’s nothing offensive about Google’s trusty shade of black, as such. Fairly the other – it’s downright boring. Certainly, Obsidian is the one ‘color’ (if we are able to name it that) to make its method into the Pixel 10, 10 Professional and 10 Professional XL (although not the ten Professional Fold). Boo to ubiquity!

5. Porcelain (Pixel 10 Professional and 10 Professional XL)
As Obsidian’s conventional accomplice in crimes-against-interesting-phone-design, Porcelain actually deserves to be ranked shut by. It’s the white to Obsidian’s black, and as such is equally boring. It’s ranked a little bit increased for 2 causes – it’s each brighter and fewer fingerprinty than Obsidian.

4. Frost (Pixel 10 solely)
Frost is the Pixel 10’s ‘kinda white’ Obsidian substitute, and it’s solely marginally much less boring. If I had been in a optimistic temper, I’d say that this one’s bought an appropriately cooler, bluer tinge to it. If I had been being my standard grumpy self, I’d say it’s the color of dying and despair. The reality, as ever, can most likely be discovered someplace in between.

3. Moonstone (Pixel 10 Professional, 10 Professional XL and 10 Professional Fold)
Moonstone is a deeply romantic method of calling a cellphone ‘gray’ (or grey, for those who’re within the US), so props to Google’s PR machine for that one. Even so, I’ve to say that I’m fairly keen on this explicit color choice, at the very least from the render (see the official teaser on the prime of the article). It’s bought that deep, expensive-looking tone that you just may see on a contemporary German sports activities automobile or a complicated kitchen.
2. Indigo (Pixel 10 solely)
Would I personally specify my cellphone in such a wealthy tone of blue as Indigo? Most likely not. However because it’s considered one of solely two vibrant colors in your complete Pixel 10 vary, and the one one which doesn’t remind me of messy vacation ingesting experiences, it has to attain extremely.
Android Headlines
1. Jade (Pixel 10 Professional, 10 Professional XL and 10 Professional Fold)
Jade seems to be to be the 2025 tackle what’s arguably my favorite Pixel cellphone color of all time – the Pixel 8 Professional’s Hazel. It’s a lot lighter and greener, for positive, but it surely has an identical mixture of a relaxing, virtually arboreal rear panel with what seems to be a heat metallic rim. Pretty.
