A recent leak from veteran leaker Evan Blass claims that the upcoming Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold will be compliant with the Qi2 wireless charging standard. However, this news comes with a caveat—while the phone supports Qi2, it isn’t confirmed whether it will include integrated magnets needed for the Magnetic Power Profile (MPP) of Qi2.
Qi2 Wireless Charging and Magnet Support Explained
The Qi2 wireless charging standard consists of two profiles:
- Baseline Power Profile (BPP): Wireless charging without integrated magnets.
- Magnetic Power Profile (MPP): Wireless charging with built-in magnets allowing compatible magnetic accessories and easier alignment.
I can confirm that while the P10PF will indeed be Qi2-compliant, it will not be released until October 9th, alongside the PW4 and PB2a.

The Pixel 10 Pro Fold’s Qi2 compliance could mean it supports the BPP, but there is currently no confirmation it includes the magnets required for MPP. This distinction matters for users hoping to use magnetic wireless chargers and accessories without external add-ons.

What This Means for Pixel 10 Pro Fold Buyers
If the Pixel 10 Pro Fold lacks integrated magnets for Qi2 MPP, users will need to rely on external magnetic cases or accessories to utilize magnetic wireless charging features fully. This contrasts with some leaks about conventional Pixel 10 phones that suggest integrated magnets are present on those devices.
The foldable phone’s arrival is expected alongside other Google devices like the Pixel Watch 4 and Pixel Buds 2a.
