Pixel 10 Model Number May Have Just Leaked

While the tech world buzzes about the anticipated release of the iPhone 16e, another significant development may be on the horizon. Recent entries in the GSMA (Global System for Mobile Communications Association) database appear to have unveiled the official model numbers for Google’s upcoming Pixel 10 series, suggesting that these devices might be on their way to approval and could potentially launch in about six months.

Reports indicate that there will be at least four distinct models in this series: the Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro, Pixel 10 Pro XL, and Pixel 10 Pro Fold, as noted by SmartPrix.com. The only notable absence seems to be the Pixel 10A, which is speculated to debut later this year.

• The Google Pixel 10 is set to have model numbers GLBW0 and GL066.
• The Google Pixel 10 Pro will carry G4QUR and GN4F5.
• The Google Pixel 10 Pro XL’s designation is GUL82.
• For the Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold, the model number will be GU0NP.

The registration of these model numbers suggests that Google is in the process of certifying the devices with the GSMA, a strong indication that the Pixel 10 series is on track. Previously, speculation revolved around less confirmed rumors and possible codenames for the devices (with the codenames believed to be inspired by horse breeds—Frankel, Blazer, Mustang, and Rango), but now we have more concrete information.

The Pixel 10 lineup is expected to offer a significant upgrade in performance, particularly with the introduction of new Tensor chips. Reports indicate that Google may shift production to TSMC’s facilities for the upcoming chips, which should enhance phone efficiency.

Predictions place the release of the Pixel 10 series approximately six months from now, aligning with the standard timeline for Pixel phone launches. The Pixel 9 was released on August 22, marking a similar timeframe leading up to the anticipated Pixel 10.
