ThinBorne Vs. Mous Super Thin Case with Pixelsnap for Pixel 10 Pro/ Pro XL: In-Depth Features & Pricing Comparison (2025)

The Pixel 10 Pro and Pro XL have been on our radar for months, and now that they’re here, one thing is clear: they deserve a case that preserves their slim, premium feel.

For ultra-thin and modern protection, ThinBorne has been proven and tested for two previous Pixel generations. This year, the Mous Super Thin Case with Pixelsnap for Pixel 10 Pro/Pro XLmade a hard launch, and we’re curious what it has to offer. So, we made a comprehensive comparison of the two slim and lightweight options.

A Google Pixel 10 Pro PixelSnap case will unlock the full potential of your new Pixel phone; it’s just a matter of choosing the one that's right for you. Thinborne and Mous go for the “thin but functional” category, yet they differ in some areas. Let’s break them down below.

As per Google, the Pixel 10 series is the first major Android lineup with Qi2 wireless charging built in. Qi2 uses magnets (like MagSafe) so your phone snaps into perfect alignment for faster, more reliable charging.

Because it’s universal, Pixel 10 works with both MagSafe accessories and Google’s new PixelSnap accessories (their own magnetic cases, chargers, and mounts).

Using the PixelSnap case for your Pixel 10 Pro helps in two ways:

• Protection – keeps your Pixel 10 safe from drops and scratches.

• Accessory support – if you use a MagSafe/PixelSnap-compatible case, it ensures the magnets stay strong and accessories attach securely.

So while the case isn’t necessary, it makes your phone safer and helps magnetic accessories work better.

Google’s PixelSnap case for the Pixel 10 Pro is built with one goal: to make magnetic charging and accessories work without any hiccups. It’s the safe pick if you want something straight from the source.

But if you’re looking beyond Google’s own case, brands like ThinBorne and Mous take the same idea in different directions. ThinBorne goes all-in on making the case as slim and tough as possible, while Mous focuses on eco-friendly builds and stylish finishes.

Here’s how they compare feature by feature:

ThinBorne measures 0.04 inches thin and weighs 0.70 ounces, keeping the Pixel 10 Pro close to its original size and weight. It fits without adding noticeable bulk and maintains the phone’s slim profile.

Mous measures 0.51 inches thick and weighs 0.99 ounces for the Pixel 10 Pro. The extra thickness provides more coverage and a sturdier hold, though it makes the phone feel larger compared to ThinBorne’s ultra-slim build.

ThinBorne utilizes 600D aramid fiber, which is five times stronger than steel at the same weight. This material resists scratches, keeps its finish over time, and protects the Pixel 10 Pro from daily wear without adding bulk.

Mous builds its Pixel 10 Pro case with a polycarbonate shell and a microfibre lining. This construction keeps the case lightweight while protecting both the outside and the glass back of the phone.

ThinBorne includes full MagSafe and Qi2 support. The case is compatible with certified MagSafe chargers, wallets, and stands; however, built-in car wireless chargers or direct metal contact should be avoided.

Mous integrates a magnetic array for PixelSnap and wireless charging. It connects with Google’s snap accessories and standard chargers. Both cases handle everyday charging well, with ThinBorne offering the slimmer fit and Mous adding more interior lining.

ThinBorne measures 0.04 inches thin, keeping the Pixel 10 Pro close to its original profile. It adds protection without noticeable bulk, maintaining the phone’s slim shape.

Mous measures 0.51 inches thick, which creates a sturdier hold and more surface coverage. The added thickness makes the phone larger in hand and less minimal compared to ThinBorne’s ultra-slim build.

While ThinBorne highlights precision styling, Mous provides more options for those who prefer colorful personalization.

ThinBorne shows off a carbon fiber texture that reflects light in subtle ways. It looks premium and minimal, matching the clean lines of the Pixel 10 Pro. The brand markets it toward those who want a professional, understated design.

Mous, on the other hand, offers more color options. For the Pixel 10 and 10 Pro, buyers can choose Jet Black, Fresh Lilac, and Thyme Green. The XL version adds Hot Coral and Charcoal Blue. Mous appeals to those who want color variety alongside slim protection.

At ThinBorne, we design the Pixel 10 Pro case with a carbon fiber texture and a matte finish. It keeps a clean look, matches the phone’s slim frame, and resists fingerprints in daily use.

Mous offers its Pixel 10 Pro case in Jet Black, Fresh Lilac, and Thyme Green. These color options offer users multiple ways to personalize their device while maintaining a slim case design.

Both systems work effectively for charging and attaching accessories, though ThinBorne achieves full MagSafe compatibility while keeping a thinner profile.

At ThinBorne, we state clearly that our Pixel 10 Pro case is not designed for heavy drop protection. It shields the phone from scratches, pocket wear, and light bumps while maintaining a slim profile.

Mous builds its Pixel 10 Pro case with a thicker polycarbonate frame, providing added protection against everyday drops. It does not match the rugged protection of Mous’s heavier models but offers more impact resistance than our ultra-slim design.

Price plays a role when choosing a Pixel 10 Pro case. At ThinBorne, we price our case higher due to the aerospace-grade material and ultra-slim design. Mous positions its case at a lower cost, focusing on recycled materials and a wide variety of colors.
