Pixel 10 Leak Reveals MagSafe-Like Wireless Charging Thanks to Apple
Google is expected to unveil its latest Pixel 10 smartphones during its August 20 event, and it appears the devices will feature MagSafe-like charging without a case.

by The Verge, reputable leaker Evan Blass (@evleaks) this week
shared an alleged Pixel 10 marketing image that shows what appears to be a magnetic wireless charger affixed directly to the back of the device. In fact, the Pixel charger looks nearly identical to Apple's MagSafe Charger for iPhones.
This rumor makes sense, as Apple contributed its MagSafe design to the Qi2 spec a few years ago, and the Pixel 10 is expected to support Qi2.
Blass has a proven track record with leaks — mostly for Android devices, but occasionally for Apple devices too. In 2020, for example, he shared iPhone 12 and HomePod mini images a few hours before Apple announced those devices.
Apple introduced MagSafe on iPhone 12 models in 2020, so Google is five years late to the party.
