Question Is it worth to upgrade charger? - Google Pixel 7 Pro

Hi recently I've been reading a lot about charging pixel 7 pro and got confused. At the moment I'm charging it with Samsung EPTA800. Would I benefit if upgraded to a charger with PPS? For example Anker nano 3?

My gf and me just got Anker PowerPort III for our Pixels which has 25W PD3.0 and it was totally worth it...

But does it have PPS as well? as the Samsung I'm using now is 25w PD3 but read that pixel 7 pro benefits a lot from adapters with PPS. Just question is what's the gain?

Ours have PPS too and this article (German) and the real/world usage says it is worth it...
Google Pixel 7 Pro Laden, wie schnell lädt es und welche Standards werden unterstützt? - Techtest

Okay thank you

Probably not, no matter what i have charged mine with it always seems to charge in around the same time. I am currently using a 30W Anker Nano III for home and the 30W Google one for travel (thanks to the slide down earth pin on the UK one making it more compact) and neither charge significantly faster (or cooler) than my Anker Nano II Pro, Anker Nano II and even an Anker power strip with a USB A connector still manages to charge it in just over a couple of hours and that is only 15W. The phone is limited to 23W and then it doesn't stay at 23W for very long really.
This is a good read
You still really don't need that Google Pixel 7 30W fast charger
Pixel 7 charging tests reveal very little benefit to buying Google's 30W USB PD PPS charger versus using an older plug.
www.androidauthority.com

Thank you. Yes I saw few articles and reviews saying that it doesn't benefits from 30w charger and now I'm using 25w one. Never really tried to charge from zero but usually from low 10% ish) it says around 1hr 50 .in the night a always have addaptive charging option on. I was Just wondering if swapping to 30w PPS would let me charge it noticeable faster when needed to plug it in for quick charge. But looks like it won't give me any benefits. Thank you

1hr 50min is about right from 10%

I wonder if it's a software limitation and maybe they could up the limit at some point?

It seems highly improbable, and to what end, why would they "hold back" on a feature like this, given the sales lifetime of this type of device (maybe a year for new sales, the ones they mostly care about)?
Google seems ok with their charge rates, for now, from where I sit. It could play into wanting longer overall battery lifetime, too, for warranty and such, it's hard to guess on some of this (without some fairly closely held info, IME).
TBH though, I mostly charge wirelessly, for some years now, and that fits 90% of my scenarios (charge overnight and top off in afternoon on desk-stand, as needed), so I rarely even reach for a plug anymore. I'm not running out to the bar at the last minute with others as much though, these days, which is probably a factor (phone usage model for any age, demographic, role, whatever, really), for me...

Using an old Samsung one, works great. Same for the charging pad in the car. As they all exceed or are near Google's specs don't worry about your choice.

0-100% is happening in ~2Hours here with 25W PPS. So ig 30W doesn't gives any benefits at all!? (Overkill!?). My PowerPorts III was 12€ each. That's a really solid Price compared to other Chargers from Anker with PPS...

Considering it tops out at around 23W the rest is overkill. I guess Google suggests 30W because some chargers may overstate their capacity.

Great guys thank you for clarifying that and saving me from spending extra money

I had Google charger, now I have Baseus charger 120W and Samsung 25W. I connected all chargers to two power meters and I charged my Pixel 7 pro. The fastest is Samsung. 25.9W This is the max what I got. Baseus around 25W. Google charger was the slowest 23.6W.

FAST Wireless Charger [third party] with Note 9

I recently buy third party Wireless charger Baseus 10W, but I have problem with it. When I connect it to original Note 9 Charger it won't charge in Fast mode only standard. I little research and find thet older samsung chargers (Galaxy S7...) are work without problem with Fast Wireless Charging.
Note 9 use Charger EP-TA20EBE, if you want to use third party Wireless Chargers use EP-TA20EWE.
I made short video about Baseus Wireless Charger its cheap and very good, its have Fast Charging mod. If you are interested you can check video:

RavPower B0792VBPLV
Bought this one a week ago; https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B0792VBPLV/
It's perfect. Charges really fast, includes its own 24W plugged power-supply. Came highly recommended by a friend who also has this exact same model ravpower and a note 8. Loving it so far.

How long do you mean by "really fast"? I have an ADATA CW0100 pad and it won't consistently fast-charge with the Note 9's power brick but works fine with my Sony UCH10 QC.20 charger. It still takes about 3 hours to reach maximum capacity.

I don't own an ADATA pad, so how should I know?
My Note 9 (4023 mAh estimated battery capacity, according to AccuBattery Pro) on average charges to 54% in less than an hour. I consider that fast. By the way, depending on the type battery, but most current batteries don't benefit from charging to the full 100%. With AccuBattery you can find out the sweet spot for your device's battery life, for mine that was around 56%, so I rarely charge it higher than that.

Titacute charger problem. with 6a charger

So I have only a titacute 30w or 5v at 6a charger. I never received the original. I then purchased the orange titacute cable. In the end it can only get 4400 mah only totally dead 1% charge with ampere and other software..
What could be causing this the charger the cable or what I really wanted to get 30w charging. Thanks everyone.
Cheap *** Warp Charger clone, don't expect to much. Warp Charge is an active circuitry-controlled charger and isn't that simple to clone.
And if it's try you charger is a clone of a clone I wouldn't expect anything to charge active, what you get is normal 5v charging.

Right but OEM one plus charger only does 5v 6a for 30w. And titacute says it does that. But it's more like 5v 4.2. Can someone with the OEM and titacute 6a cable show an ampere or other app screenshot of 5800 mAh at 5v. So I know that it's the charger and just seek OEM or whatever works.. thanks
I use chargers & cables purchased from China, not from OnePlus and they work great. Since OnePlus 3. All my OnePlus phones i purchased from other people with no accesories.
Fast charge best time, 45 minutes from 0% to 100% with the phone off. (with OP 3 and op5) . Now i can't try on OP 7 pro because of Magisk.

Why not because of Magisk... I have Magisk is that why it won'y work ... I get WARP charge banner but it's a 4A charge and I have the 6A titacute charger and short orange cable (quite thick indeed) ... what gives ? Any advice for me ?
Let me clear this up.
Magisk it's the issue if you charge with the phone OFF.
It charges the phone but the screen do not show you how much (%) and when it's full, 100%.

Sorry friend but it didn't exactly clear this up. How can be sure it is charging at 6A when it's off. Also how come it says warp charge but ampure .APK shows 4100 mah which is like 4 amp.. I have seen people with 5800 mAh screenshots.. is this cause of magisk? Can we figure out why?
No. I don't think so.
Magisk it's one of the problems if you charge with the phone OFF. NOT the case for you.
Also if you got Fast charge it's ok.

Right I am aware that it is ok. But I want to know if I can buy the original charger and have it charge at max speed.. it's one of the reasons I wanted this phone. Because I hata waiting for a charge and this phone is supposed to warp charge really really fast..
This is good for many reasons but main reason why is :
I am on the road and the quicker I can charge at a stop the quicker I can get back to making money..
And also
It is better to be NOT be using the phone while a cable is attached for many reasons. Therefore the faster it charges the less time it's plugged in. The less time it is plugged in the better. For the jack , cable and experience in general
Yes, buy warp charger if you like the price 30 euro + transport (about 13-14 euro) . On OnePlus.net
Or you can buy from chinese stores, other than OnePlus, Much Cheaper. I both warp charger+warp cable with 10,30 $ US.
You can buy warp charger for car.

One Vision TurboPower

Hi guys! I wanna buy for 170$ One vision. I saw that it comes with 15W turbopower charger in package
Somebody used 27W turbopower charger? I see advertised in some websites that one vision supports that amount of power
https://www.motorola.com/us/motorola-turbopowe-27-wall-charger-with-usb-c-to-usb-c-data-cable/p
27W-TurboPower™: Bis zu 7 Stunden Akku-Power nach nur 15 Minuten Aufladen
https://www.motorola.de/smartphones-motorola-one-vision/p
So what should i believe? That One Vision supports 27W but comes with 15W for cost reasons? Or they wanna sell some 27W chargers to make the phone like Note 7, sammy of course
Thanks!

charging tests - whats the best charger?

Hey guys, as we all saw, the new note 20 charging specs isn't as good as the old one coming up to 25W rather than 45W.
But as for my past experience those on-paper specs aren't exact accurate and sure never fully explained.
unfortunately I don't own note 20 (yet?), so I can't share my highly detailed tests that I usually do, but those of you who own it and can share any data of test please write it down here.
Try to measure any of the following details:
* what charger(s) are you using? (Name / output powers / Power delivery version / etc... picture of the specs on it will be sufficient)
* what voltage and ampere (or watt) are being used (hold it few seconds to let it settle, it also should vary on the current starting point battery level, and wether screen is on/ off) (the more details you bring, the better)
* if you got no power meter than charging times could also be usefull (0->30, 0->50, 10->20, etc..)
after we get some tests here I'll sum it all up in a google sheets (like these: example1, example2, example3)
and after that we can get some recommendation of what 3rd party chargers are best to buy
If you are like me and like plugging a charger in every corner you probably want something good, with high speeds, and original is always more expensive than 3rd party ones so why not knowing the specs first.
Also we might find out that some charger can charge even faster than the original 25W one (what about 30W,45W,65W PD 3.0 chargers? what about PD 2.0? 1.0? etc..)
Your contribute will be highly appreciated!
I have an N9860 from Hong Kong. Normally I am happy to slow charge and have my charge settings set that way. Today, as an experiment for this discussion I enabled fast charging and super fast charging and connected to a 60W PD/QC4+ charger via a USB-C monitor.. The charger is branded Klearlook and was bought from Amazon in the UK a couple of years ago.
The phone is receiving/demanding only 15W at 9.2V, 1.6A. That is from 13% to 44%.
I removed the monitor in case it was interfering with handshaking protocols and it has had no impact on remaining time to full charge (now 58 minutes remaining at 46%.
Using the same charger I disconnected the PD cord and switched to an 18W USB-A port without a monitor. No change to remaining time to full charge.
So I'm getting fast charging, but not super fast charging from my combination charger - a charger that will happily run my Dell XPS 13 laptop from the PD port.
So then I unboxed the supplied charger and cord, previously unused. With the monitor attached I'm seeing 18W - 9V at 2A - and the phone says super fast charging, briefly, with the screen off and only the charging information displayed.
I'll just carry on as normal with my slow charging to 80% (thanks Accubattery) since that suits my needs perfectly well and should hopefully minimise battery degradation over time.
Thank you very much for that highly detailed measurement and review!
Results are pretty disappointing, your charger should have be good scenario
Hopefully (but doubt it) maybe others would find better results

The fact that maybe your PD QC4+ does not support PPS (the only way to enable 25W charging on Note 20 ultra or 45W on Note 10 plus).
Confirm that your charger does support PD with PPS protocol.
Yes, it's a bit annoying (to say the least) that note 20 is slower (downgrade) compared to Note 10 in terms of charging speed.
Regards.

I have no idea about PPS - never heard of it until now. The charger is no longer available from Amazon. I bought it in August 2018. Maybe it predates PPS. Anyway, a Google search found what appears to be the same product here....

Yeah, no mention of PPS anywhere, only AFC on the 3 non-USBC ports (limited to 18W).
And you are right Note 10 and S20 (the ones using PPS - 25/45W are 2019 phones), so the power supply being a 2018 product may lack the latest protocols.
I have a Note 9 (2018 product) and no ”Super fast charge“...
I had the same problem (bought a 45W car charger), just to find out it lacked PPS protocol, so no 25W or 45W charging speeds. I Had to return it, and carefully search for an updated version (more expensive) supporting it.

I have several chargers I use, but without any real testing, it feels like my 45w charger from Samsung is the best experience. I attached my charging log screen shots. 1%-100% in 1hr 13min. I get the super charging icon through the entire charge. I will try the same test with the 25w charger and see if there is any difference. It feels like it charges just as fast as my previous note 10+ 5g, which is why I got this charging block in the first place.

Question 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)

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.
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-Charger-Charging-Adaptor-Compatible-USB-C/dp/B0B4VY7WDH
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.
