Tech giant Google allegedly developing Qi2 compatibility accessories for Pixel 10 smartphone, referred to as 'Pixelsnap'.
**Google Set to Introduce MagSafe-like Experience with "Pixelsnap" Accessories for Pixel 10 Series**
Google is gearing up to offer a MagSafe-like wireless charging experience with its upcoming Pixel 10 series, through a line of accessories branded as "Pixelsnap." According to recent rumors, these accessories will include a magnetic charging puck, a ring stand, and a charger with stand.
The magnetic charging puck, codenamed STN4, is expected to support Qi 2.2 and Magnetic Power Profile (MPP). The name "Snap" suggests that the accessories will have magnets, and "Ring" implies a circular design for the stand.
The Pixelsnap system is designed to offer a convenient way to attach phones to charging stands or other accessories, similar to Apple's MagSafe technology. However, it is unclear whether the design will include built-in magnets within the phone's body or rely solely on compatible cases and accessories.
Google plans to release a line of Pixelsnap accessories that will utilize magnets to attach the phone to different charging and possibly other accessories. The Pixelsnap Charger with Stand may combine the charging puck and the stand, providing a one-stop solution for charging and positioning the phone.
The Pixelsnap Ring Stand, another rumored accessory, is expected to be available in Mist (white) and Rock Candy (black) colors. No details about the functionality, pricing, or other features of these accessories have been revealed yet.
The Pixel 10 series, including the Pixelsnap accessories, is scheduled to be officially announced on August 20, 2025. However, no information about the availability or pricing of the Pixel 10 series has been revealed yet.
Leaked images suggest that the Pixel 10 Pro prototype has a possibly thicker camera bar and other tweaks. The Pixel 10 series models have not been confirmed to come with any of the previously mentioned Pixelsnap accessories.
In other news, the Google Pixel 10 series will still use an Exynos modem rather than MediaTek in Tensor G5. No details about the specifications or features of the Pixel 10 series beyond the modem and camera bar information have been revealed yet.
Stay tuned for more updates on the Pixel 10 series and its Pixelsnap accessories as more information becomes available.
Smartphones integrated with the new Pixelsnap accessories will utilize magnets for charging and attachment, much like Apple's MagSafe technology, when integrated with the Pixel 10 series. The forthcoming Pixelsnap lineup, anticipated to include a charging puck, ring stand, and charger with stand, will also consist of gadgets that harness technology to enhance user experience.
