I recently purchased a Pixel 3, and traded in my original Pixel (I skipped the Pixel 2). When I traded in the original Pixel, Google didn't ask for the charger back, so I kept it. The Pixel 3 charger is the same size as the original Pixel charger, but are they really identical? Is anyone here familiar with the specs on the Pixel 3 charger and how it compares to the specs on the original Pixel charger?
Thanks!
I believe the Pixel 1 is different from the one that shipped with the 2 and 3. It will work fine, but I believe starting with the Pixel 2 the charger has a higher output. I think maybe 15 vs 18 watts. There's no risk to using it, but the Pixel 3 charger will be faster. It might also be that the Pixel 1 only supported 15w charging and the 2/3 support 18w charging but still shipped with a 15w charger. I can't remember.
Short answer: It will work fine. I still use the Pixel 2 charger with my Pixel 3 next to my bed.
I use my P and PXL OG chargers regularly on the P3 and P3XL in one spot in the house since they had a longer cable. I have noticed no difference in charging speed and they still show fast charging of course.
Thanks for the information.

Is it 2a?
I pre-ordered it and wish to have backup wall/car chargers ready to go for next week.
Tnx
It's a 2A Quickcharge 1.0 unit. Quickcharge boosts the voltage (to ~9v from 5v) when the phone is less than 50%, so you can't get just ANY 2 amp charger and expect it to work as quickly.
If you care (or are willing to wait) Quickcharge 2.0 wall plugs should ship in ~2 months. That boosts the input to 15 volts (IIRC) and will supposedly charge from 0% to 100% in about 45 minutes.
yeah I guess I can wait. I can always keep an old 1a plug by the bed for long overnight charges.
Does samsung sell oem chargers at release date?
9V 1.67A and 5V 2A is what it says on the charger
9V 1.67A is the rapid charging part
it's a dual voltage charger. 5v @ 2.0A and 9v @ 1.67A
For some unknown reason, I have a 2.1 amp car charger and cheap 1 amp ac charger. My HTC One M7 charge slow but the Note 4 charge much faster using the same charging device. I dont know what it is, but I like it!
So the charger on Samsung's website is not the same one that came with the Note 4?

I think it's the Fast Charging 2.0 hardware in the Note 4?

Not sure it has anything to do with the Fast Charging hardware. The Fast Charging works with the provided charger, which is a dual voltage one. I used my iPhone's/iPad's car charger with my Note 4 and didn't notice a speed-up in charging time.
On a tangential note: I can't find anyone who sells the Note's fast charger separately yet and I needed another one for use with the Note 4 at the office. So I used the Asus charger that came with my original 3G Nexus 7 (which remains forgotten on a shelf). It works pretty well. I noticed that the Asus charger charged all my handsets (HTC One M8, Nexus 5, Z2, Oppo Find 7) pretty reliably -- the M8 and Nexus 5 seemed to charge faster compared with their stock chargers.
Anyone who's held the Asus charger knows it's a little bit bulkier and a few ounces weightier than the usual chargers that come with smartphones these days so there may be a hardware component to it. Whatever it is, it's probably the best standalone charger I've had the cables connect via a USB port so you can use it with your iPhone too.
If you can find at a garage sale or some random tech shop, you should pick one up. Works great with everything.

I was wondering if all the Nexus 6p chargers I got were the same.... From what I understand, the Pixel XL is QC 3.0 compatible which is 9v/2a = 18w, while Nexus 6p chargers are 3v/5a which is 15w.
Would it be better to use QC3.0 chargers instead of the same ones used on the Nexus 6p?
I wish we had some clear answers on all his T_T
The pixel is not QC compliant. While the amperage and the Volt's might be compatible it charges a little different. QC 3.0 is a Qualcomm thing. I can't explain the details but I know they are different.

The pixel does not have Qualcomm 3.0 compatibility even though it does have the hardware capability
Instead uses the USB C standard with power delivery.
In other words for a charger to Supply the maximum of 18 Watts to a pixel XL it needs to be PD power delivery compatible.
Otherwise it will use standard charging capabilities up to 5 volts 2.4 amps with proper cable
Thanks! I was asking because I saw this info come out today that the Pixel is capable of only 15w charging while the Pixel XL is capable of 18w. Does that mean if I am using my old Nexus 6p chargers, I am getting a slower charging speed than if I were using the charger that came with the Pixel XL in the box?

Correct
Unless your old Nexus 6p Chargers are compatible with PD Power delivery they will act and charge like standard dumb Chargers
The new mac book 12", pixel c and a few other devices used the same PD Power delivery their charges should be 100% compatible with pixel XL
Hmm so my Nexus 6p charger shows rapid charging, when plugged into my PXL

5v 2.4A 12w and or 5v 3A 12w / 15w is "fast / rapid"
What does the app Ampere report? Mind installing and taking a screenshot?
How about the other way around, how would a Pixel charger affect the Nexus 6P? Is it fine to charge for several minutes?
I used my Pixel charger to charge my Nexus 6P from about 40% to 100% and it showed rapid charging. Took about the same time it would take for my 6P to charge on it's factory charger. Haven't tried the other way around yet but I'll try it and see how it goes.
Sent from my Pixel XL
Hi all, just ordered a Pixel XL to replace my 4 core failing Nexus 6P. I have no idea what kind of charger is coming with it, and even if its OEM, I'd like to have 2. I have read many threads about the non PD compliant chargers not providing rapid charge, and am wondering what the consensus is on using a Nintendo Switch charger? My local Best buy has the official Google Pixel XL charger for $34.99, and the official Switch AC adapter is $10 less. Has anyone tried this, or have any thoughts on using this? With all the stories about nonPD if I have to, I'll just get the official google one, but was wondering if this was an option.
Thank you!
The Pixel XL comes with a USB-C charger and a USB-A to USB-C cable, so any standard USB-A rapid charger will work.

Thanks for the reply. I was under the impression from this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-xl/accessories/usb-c-pd-chargers-google-pixel-xl-t3474205
that only certain chargers provide fast charge. I did not buy the phone new so I don't know if it comes with the standard google charger or not.
belkin type c rapid charger should be available for cheap at your local walmart/target/best buy. pretty good quality cable for the price.
My switch charger ended up damaging the port after continued use. I recommend saving up for the official one
Tried many chargers, only the original Google ones seem to charge at rapid charging speed. Oh Belkin car charger ones does as well.
I tried a NS charger (HAC-002 USZ) on a Pixel XL a day ago and it worked fine and did rapid charging.
Mine didn't come with a charger (bought off eBay). I bought a so called fast charger (can't remember brand but it looked legit Qualcomm fast charge capable) and it says it's fast charging but it takes about twice as long to charge as my old OnePlus 5 did.
Is it advisable to charge the Oneplus 6 with a charger having specification of 5V *4.5A car charger??? Will it affect the battery or any other circuitry???
All good. Voltage must be 5V. Amperes can be anything, but 4A is maximum this phone is capable to charge. If you put 5A instead of 4A - it will charge slightly faster, but this is hardware limit of regular OP6T. Getting 6A will not make any difference compared to 5A, sonce phone will not take that much power anyway.
Here you can see how regular OP6T (uses 5V4A) charges with McLaren edition charger (5V5A). Not worth buying, unless you have spare money.

The phone wont charge with 4.5Ah. Maybe with 2.5Ah or so. The phone will only charge with nearly 4A with the original oneplus dash charger and the original charging cable.

Or any VOOC charger
First Ever pixel phone and nowadays don't come with charger what charger you guys recommend. original google or something from amazon .
Also i only have a 15watt at home
Need a PPS charger for full speed. At least 30W.
The Google one is fine if you want official.
I did order the Google charger
Anyways, I never had wireless charging. Which wireless charger is good and reasonably priced - the Google one is not.

Pixels can't go above 23W.

I rarely fast charge anything, I normally baby my batteries and just use very low wattage chargers, but I do own an Anker 3-port (2x USB-C 100W charge, and one USB-A, whatever that's capable of). I mostly use it with my tablet when I need to, but I've used it with my phone once or twice.
Using an Anker Nano II 30W charger here (PD/PPS), although most of the time I charge my phone through my laptop (C>C) to keep heat down.
Question would a s21 ultra charger fast charge on pixel 7?
Would my OP9 charger and cable be fine?
Since it limits the Wattage anyways
I think that with these 3 news that dedicate an article on the best chargers for our P7 pro, I think you should find your choice
xda-developpers => These are the best chargers, cables, and other accessories to buy for the Google Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro in 2022
Android Authority => The best Google Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro chargers
AndroidPolice => The best Google Pixel 7 wireless chargers in 2022
I have a OnePlus charger 65w and a couple of Huawai Mate 20 pro chargers 40w (I believe). Will these charge the pixel on full speed? I'm awaiting Pixel 7 pro

Yes. The Warp 65W charger supports USB PD 3.0 PPS up to 45W (phone will charge at no more than 23W)
OnePlus Warp Charge 65 Power Adapter NA

It is ridiculous that these companies can get away with selling a high price device without a charging block. Here is your brand new car, you will need to bring a gas can if you want to drive it off the lot. We do not supply gasoline as the time of purchase.
I recommend these 3 chargers:
Google charger, 30 W, USB-C only, 29 € (I own this one, works well, uses PPS, but makes some tiny noise sometimes)
Samsung charger, USB-C + USB-A, 35 W, 23 €, uses PPS as well
Wicked Chili charger, USB C + USB-A, 33 W, 25 €, GaN (I own this one, too, it also uses PPS, it's very small, but I'm not sure if it's available everywhere. In Germany, it is.)
I've got this Anker charger https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B016LPMFUA
But I've been charging the Pixel 7 Pro with an old LG Nexus 5x charger Which seems to charge a little faster than the Anker.
I was a little hesitant plugging the chargers in at first but after asking around ye old internet it seems both chargers will do the job fine for now. I'm at a loss which replacement charger to buy next though as there are so many to choose from.

This is the one I have, bought for my S21 Ultra last year. Supports 25W so I would hope it charges the S7 Pro fast enough. Ridiculously fast charging doesn't appeal to me, as it has a big negative impact on the battery. I charge my phones overnight at normal speed.
I have an Anker Nano II Pro (20W) in my travel bag but for overnight charging at home i use an Anker power strip with build in USB A ports that charges slowly in conjunction with adaptive charging.
