The base Pixel 10 should use a Samsung GN8 main sensor, Sony IMX712 ultrawide, and Samsung 3J1 telephoto sensor.

Did it turn out to be true?

Never settled. The company has announced the product and nobody ever confirmed or denied this. It was reported on Apr 3, 2025 in Android Authority, and we could not tell who reported it first. That was 139 days before Google Pixel 10 was announced on Aug 20, 2025. Google publishes Pixel 10 camera resolutions, apertures and sensor sizes but does not publish the claimed Samsung GN8, Sony IMX712 and Samsung 3J1 sensor model identities.
