Here's a leaked Pixel 10 Pro case on a Pixel 9 Pro
TL;DR We have obtained a case for the unreleased Google Pixel 10 Pro.
To test it out, we put a Pixel 9 Pro into the case.
The Pixel 9 Pro fits, but there are a lot of changes that make it not ideal to swap cases between the two devices.
We expect Google to announce the new Pixel 10 series in the coming weeks. As usual, we've already seen plenty of leaks surrounding the phones, including a nearly-retail-ready device and a likely retail-ready version in a behind-the-scenes clip from a commercial shoot. From these, we know that the Google Pixel 10 series will look remarkably similar to the Pixel 9 series.
Just how similar will they be, though? To help answer that question, we got help from a smartphone case company called Thinborne. The owner sent us a case that is designed to fit the Google Pixel 10 and Pixel 10 Pro. Obviously, considering Google hasn't announced the phones yet, this is a break in standard protocol.
Regardless, the first thing I did when I got the case was put my Pixel 9 Pro into it. Interestingly, the phone fit the case just fine. It was a little tricky to get it all the way on, but it didn't warp or crack when I did so. In other words, the Pixel 10 and Pixel 10 Pro will have roughly the same dimensions as the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro.

However, there were a lot of things about the case that didn't fit well. The first and most obvious was the cutout for the camera bar. There's a sizable gap left behind with this Pixel 10 Pro case on a Pixel 9 Pro, which proves that the camera bar on the Pixel 10 phones will be larger than what we see on the Pixel 9 series. It's not a lot larger, but it's large enough that all sorts of dust and debris would get into the gap if you were to use a Pixel 10 case on a Pixel 9 phone. Also, if I had a Pixel 10 Pro, I am certain it would not fit into a Pixel 9 Pro case because of this size discrepancy.
Elsewhere, the Pixel 10 case partially covers up the 5G antenna on the Pixel 9 Pro. This probably wouldn't be enough to dramatically affect reception, but it certainly wouldn't help.
Most notably, though, is that the bottom of the case is completely reconfigured when compared to a Thinborne Pixel 9 case. This is because the Pixel 10 is going to have two speaker cutouts at the bottom instead of just one. The SIM tray is also going to be moved to the top of the Pixel 10.
All in all, there are just too many compromises here. If you currently own a Pixel 9 series device and are hoping to keep your current case when you upgrade to the Pixel 10 later this year, that isn't going to work. Despite the phones being very similar, the cases are different enough that you'll want to buy one specific to the applicable model.
If you want to buy a Thinborne case for either a Pixel 9 or Pixel 10, you can do so at Thinborne's site.

How Advisors Can Avoid Becoming Over-Reliant on AI
Apparently there's no AI in team. Artificial intelligence is being hailed as a key element of the fourth industrial revolution, and new tools are now assisting financial advisors with taking notes, drafting emails, and brainstorming thought leadership content. In fact, the vast majority of advisors said generative AI helped their practices, according to a survey earlier this year. But AI isn't a silver bullet. It lacks emotional intelligence and a human touch. Advisors risk damaging client relationships if they become too reliant on automation — even for routine tasks. 'AI is poor at empathy so far,' said Adrian Johnstone, CEO of the CRM platform Practifi. 'Advisors need to recognize where the personal connection is most powerful, and use AI to automate and alleviate the lesser functions.' READ ALSO: What the GENIUS Act Means for Stablecoins and Advisors and Why UBS Is the Only Wirehouse to Allow Podcasting Today, most advisors use AI to boost meeting efficiency and streamline workflows. Ideally, this frees up more time to spend with clients, but misusing these tools can backfire. 'The common refrain of disaffected clients is: 'I pay you to understand me, my goals, and my fears, not to outsource me to a machine,'' Johnstone said. Wealth management is built on bespoke service, but AI hasn't yet learned to fully adapt to individual client needs and goals. While tools that draft emails and website content are improving, the output still reads 'hollow and generic,' Johnstone warned. Use it or Lose it. Client-facing AI tools can be 'extremely risky' because they can't interpret emotional undertones of client's concerns, said Rafael Loureiro, CEO of an estate planning platform. Still, AI can be useful for quick, factual tasks. 'If it's midnight on a Sunday and a client asks, 'What was my marginal tax rate last year?' that's a perfect use case,' Loureiro said. 'It's not doing financial planning, but answering factual questions.' Everything in Moderation. This isn't the first time new tech or strategies meant to disrupt the wealth management industry have wound up causing trouble for advisors and their clients. Will Trout, director at Datos Insights, pointed to the 2008 financial crisis as a warning. 'Firms that over-relied on risk models without human oversight suffered catastrophic losses,' he told Advisor Upside. This post first appeared on The Daily Upside.

Meta and Oakley Are Launching AI-Powered Glasses This Summer
Meta on Friday unveiled a new line of AI-powered glasses made in collaboration with Oakley. The Oakley Meta HSTN will drop later this summer with a $399 price tag, Meta said, with a $499 limited edition version available for preorder on July 11. Oakley's parent company EssilorLuxottica previously partnered with Meta on Ray-Ban branded AI (META) and Oakley unveiled a new line of AI-powered glasses Friday that will be available for preorder starting next month. The Oakley Meta HSTN glasses include an Ultra HD camera, open-ear speakers, and the Meta AI app built in, allowing users to take hands-free photos and videos. It also comes equipped with a longer battery life than earlier models of Meta AI glasses. A limited-edition version of the HSTN will be available for preorder starting July 11 for $499, with a $399 version expected to launch later this summer. The new Oakley glasses are Meta's latest collaboration with eyewear maker and Oakley owner EssilorLuxottica, which also partnered with the tech giant on a line of Ray-Ban Meta glasses. A line of Prada glasses is expected in the future, according to a report from CNBC. 'Glasses have emerged as a major new hardware category of the AI era,' Meta said in a statement. It isn't the only Big Tech player trying its success with AI-powered eyewear. Alphabet's (GOOGL) Google in May said it partnered with glasses retailer Warby Parker (WRBY) to develop AI-powered glasses. Google committed to investing as much as $150 million, including buying a stake in Warby Parker. Snap (SNAP), meanwhile, has said it plans to launch the latest version of its own AI glasses, known as Specs, in 2026. Meta shares were down about 2% to just above $684 in Friday afternoon trading. They've added roughly 17% of their value since the start of the year. Read the original article on Investopedia
