Pixel 10 Misses Out on WiFi 7 Support New FCC Filling Says… Bummer

The Google Pixel 10 and Pixel 10 Pro XL have appeared on the FCC website, suggesting features like satellite support and a Samsung modem. The Pro version supports Thread and UWB, while the standard version lacks these. Expected to launch soon, leaks confirm improved connectivity and larger batteries without a price increase in Europe.
  • The Google Pixel 10 and Pixel 10 Pro XL have passed through the FCC website.
  • Both phones apparently have satellite support, and there are hints of a Samsung modem once again.
  • Meanwhile, the Pro version has Thread and UWB support while the standard model misses these features.

Google is anticipated to unveil the Pixel 10 series in the upcoming weeks, and there has already been a consistent flow of leaks. The most recent leak originates from the company’s own regulatory submissions.

The Pixel 10 (model numbers GLBWO, GL066, GK2MP), Pixel 10 Pro (G4QUR), and Pixel 10 Pro XL (GUL82) have been listed on the FCC website this week, providing some insights into the devices.

Beginning with the XL model, the FCC documentation confirms features such as wireless charging, Wi-Fi 6E, Thread support, and UWB. Additionally, there is evidence indicating that the company is utilizing a Samsung modem. The listing for the Pixel 10 Pro also verifies all these features and suggests a Samsung modem is in use.

On the other hand, the standard Pixel 10 filing highlights connectivity options like wireless charging and Wi-Fi 6E. However, it appears that Google’s basic model does not support Thread or UWB connectivity. Evidence of a Samsung-made modem is also present here.

All three Pixel filings reference satellite functionality, known as NTN (non-terrestrial network) connectivity. This is not unexpected, as the Pixel 9 series already includes satellite connectivity. Take a look at the screenshots below.

These are not the only recent leaks regarding the Pixel 10 series. A reliable source has recently disclosed EU pricing for the devices, indicating that European customers will not face a price increase this year. Leaked specifications also point to larger batteries for both the standard and XL models.
