Discretion seems to have taken a backseat at Google just weeks before its annual “Made by Google” event. With the official Pixel 10 series launch scheduled for August 20th, just under a month away, the entire lineup may have been accidentally revealed early on the Google Play Store, sparking buzz online.
According to an exclusive report from tech outlet Android Authority, a promotional banner showcasing all four expected models, the Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro, Pixel 10 Pro XL, and Pixel 10 Pro Fold, briefly surfaced this Wednesday. Android Authority journalists explain they uncovered the banner while “poking around” the Play Store’s backend on Android, though it remains invisible to regular users. This technical maneuvering revealed a clear image bearing the tagline: “Meet the new Pixel 10 Series.”
Visually, the banner confirms persistent rumors. The devices’ designs align closely with the flood of leaks and sketches circulating online in recent weeks, including Google’s own official teaser. The colorways are also on display: the Pixel 10 Pro, Pixel 10 Pro XL, and Pixel 10 Pro Fold appear in a silver-blue shade dubbed “Moonstone,” while the base Pixel 10 model shines in a vibrant blue.
Rumors and technical expectations
But beyond the looks, this fleeting banner also hints at concrete plans. Google reportedly will offer an immediate $50 discount on pre-orders or purchases, valid until October 13th, an enticing incentive for potential buyers.

This leak comes out while there is a lot of talk about the Pixel 10 series’ technical improvements. Reliable rumors say there will be important upgrades across the models. The regular Pixel 10 might get a triple-camera system, which is new for the basic model. The Pixel 10 Pro should get better internal parts for improved performance. Lastly, Google’s main foldable phone, the Pixel 10 Pro Fold, is expected to have better dust resistance, fixing a common issue with flexible-screen devices.
Even though this accidental appearance on the Play Store isn’t an official announcement, it gives a nearly complete look at the devices Google will show on August 20th. It shows Google’s plan to offer four different models, and confirms the expected design and colors that experts noticed. Now, everyone is waiting for the official event to learn the prices and how well these devices will really work.
