As we eagerly anticipate the upcoming launch event for the Google Pixel 10 series later this month, fresh information has emerged regarding the official case options. These new cases prominently feature a magnet ring designed for the innovative “Pixelsnap” ecosystem. Over the past few years, cases have become essential for Android phones, providing users with the ability to add MagSafe support. While Google initially overlooked this feature in their first-party cases, their “Made for Google” partners embraced the concept last year.
This year, however, it appears that the Pixel 10 series will take a significant leap forward by incorporating magnets directly into the phone’s chassis. Recent leaks display that the new cases will align seamlessly with this feature. Nieuwemobiel has released a series of images showcasing Google’s official first-party cases tailored for both the Pixel 10 and the Pixel 10 Pro XL. These cases come in a variety of colors, including Indigo, Obsidian, Limoncello, Frost, Moonstone, Jade, and Porcelain for the XL model.
Last year, the base Pixel 9 and the smaller Pixel 9 Pro were compatible with the same cases, and it is highly likely that this trend will continue with the Pixel 10 series. Although the design of the cases resembles those from the past few years, there is one notable enhancement: the inclusion of magnets. The fabric interior of the case clearly highlights the presence of a magnet ring, which is a familiar design seen in many magnetic cases, including Apple’s renowned MagSafe cases.
While it remains implied that the official cases will feature magnets, this does not mean that the Pixel 10 itself will be devoid of them. Previous leaks suggest that the Pixel 10 will finally support built-in magnets for Qi2 wireless charging. The inclusion of magnets in the cases serves to extend this support beyond the device itself, ensuring a robust connection for various accessories.
The forthcoming Pixel 10 series is generating considerable excitement among tech enthusiasts, especially with rumors indicating potential features such as the elimination of physical SIM cards. As we await further details, the integration of magnets into both the devices and their cases promises to enhance the functionality and user experience significantly.
For those keen on staying informed, the latest leaks have revealed every color option for the Pixel 10 series from multiple angles. As we draw closer to the launch, it’s clear that the Pixel 10 could very well be a game-changer in the smartphone market, revitalizing features reminiscent of the beloved Moto Mods.
