Early Pixel 10 Adopters Report Widespread Issues: Overheating, Charging Woes, and Hefty Design Mar Launch

Google’s highly anticipated Pixel 10 series, featuring the new TSMC-made 3nm Tensor G5 chipset and Qi2 wireless charging, has officially launched, but early adopters are quickly encountering significant problems. Just days after release, initial impressions from buyers highlight a range of frustrating issues, including finicky charging, device overheating, and an unexpectedly heavy design.

Users are reporting that their new Pixel 10 devices, particularly the Pixel 10 Pro XL, feel noticeably heavier than their predecessors, with some describing the larger model as a ‘brick.’ This increased heft, attributed to a new magnetic ring and larger battery, is impacting one-handed usability and overall comfort. Beyond design, critical performance issues are emerging. Many customers are experiencing problems with both wired and wireless charging, citing slow speeds and even complete failure to charge. Overheating during wireless charging is also a common complaint among new owners.

Adding to the list of grievances, some users are facing contactless payment issues, unable to add cards for tap-to-pay functionality. Furthermore, Android Auto has been reported as unusable for a segment of Pixel 10 users, an issue Google is reportedly aware of and planning to address with an upcoming fix. While initial bugs are common with new phone releases, the breadth and nature of these early reports are raising concerns among consumers considering the latest Pixel flagship.
