Pixel 10 could offer gimbal-like video stabilization

The Pixel 10 video stabilization upgrade might be the most exciting camera leap we’ve seen from Google in years. After confirming the new August 20 launch date for the Pixel 10 series, here’s what we know: the base Pixel 10 finally gets a telephoto lens, but the real story is the massive boost to Pixel 10 video stabilization.

According to an exclusive report from Android Headlines, Google’s stabilization this year is nothing like what you’ve seen on the Pixel 9. Think “gimbal-like” steadiness—except without the actual gimbal. Imagine walking around with a Pixel 10, recording video that looks almost as smooth as what you’d get using a DJI Osmo Mobile 6, but you’re just holding the phone.

Google already had solid stabilization on past Pixels, but this new system is supposed to feel like a leap. We’ve seen other brands toy with this idea before. However, Google’s approach is going to be on every Pixel 10 device. This includes the base, Pro, Pro XL, and even the Pro Fold models.

Pixel phones have always been known for great photos, but video has been a bit lackluster. Introducing video stabilization to the Pixel 10 could finally close that gap. Combine it with other features like Video Boost and Google’s usual computational smarts, and this could be the first Pixel where nobody has to make excuses about shaky, subpar video.
