Pixel 10 Pro was sold before it was released: appeared on a second-hand platform

Google’s new generation flagship mobile phone Pixel 10 series is expected to be released in August. Although it has not yet been released, its prototype motherboard has appeared on second-hand platforms.

A user publicly sold a Pixel 10 Pro prototype motherboard on Xianyu. Although its authenticity has not been confirmed, given Google’s traditionally lax confidentiality, it is not surprising even if it is true.

The seller claims that what he is selling is the EVT 1.0 (Engineering Verification Test) motherboard for the Pixel 10 Pro, which uses a development system and is “guaranteed to boot normally.”

Judging from the picture, the motherboard is equipped with Google’s latest Tensor G5 chip, and the chip serial number has been deliberately blurred, presumably to prevent Google from tracing its source.

The motherboard is priced at 7777 yuan, but since it requires certain hardware knowledge to actually use it, it may be difficult for ordinary buyers to operate it.

In addition to the motherboard, the seller also attached photos of the front and back of the Pixel 10 Pro prototype, and emphasized that the device has been remotely formatted and scrapped by Google and cannot be used.

The screen shows that the device is in the “DVT” (design verification test) stage, and the back cover is printed with a special image. Google usually adds identification marks to prototypes to track their origins and prevent leaks.

The appearance of the prototype exposed this time is not much different from the previous generation, continuing the same design language. In addition, the Pixel 10 Pro will maintain conservative hardware upgrades, focusing on algorithms and AI enhancements, such as built-in video stabilization functions similar to handheld stabilizers.
