Google’s upcoming flagship series is believed to include four models — Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro, Pixel 10 Pro XL, and Pixel 10 Pro Fold. There have been several leaks about the phones so far, some suggesting the design and others hinting at key specifications. Now, an alleged case belonging to the Pixel 10 and Pixel Pro has leaked. The protective case, said to be sourced from a well-known case manufacturer, suggests a similar design and dimensions to those of last year’s Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro. The leak claims that the Pixel 10 series phones will have slightly different proportions than their predecessors.
Android Authority has allegedly obtained a case from Thinborne that is designed to fit the upcoming Pixel 10 and Pixel 10 Pro. The report notes that the Pixel 9 Pro fits nearly perfectly into a case meant for the standard Pixel 10 and the Pro model. This hints that the Pixel 10 and 10 Pro will have similar dimensions to their Pixel 9 counterparts.
However, the images and video included in the report show that the Pixel 10 case’s port cutouts don’t align with the top and bottom edges of the Pixel 9. This suggests port placement changes. The alleged Pixel 10 case slightly covers up the 5G antenna on the Pixel 9 Pro. The bottom of the case reportedly has been entirely redesigned compared to the Thinborne Pixel 9 case.

The Pixel 10 and Pixel 10 Pro are expected to house two speaker cutouts at the bottom instead of one. The SIM tray is also likely to be moved to the top in the upcoming phones. The rear camera bar didn’t align perfectly either, leaving a gap, hinting at a slightly larger camera module in the Pixel 10 and Pixel 10 Pro.
The report states that Pixel 9 users will not be able to reuse their case with the Pixel 10. Even though the phones look similar, the slight design tweaks will demand a case made specifically for the Pixel 10.
Previous image leaks had suggested that the Pixel 10 series could closely resemble the Pixel 9 lineup. The new lineup is rumoured to be introduced on August 20 at a Made By Google launch event. The phones are expected to be equipped with the Tensor G5 chip.
