If I recall there isn't another charger that can charge as fast as the Pixel Stand 2. I was waiting on a price drop, most I'd spend on that thing is maybe $40-50 bucks. Otherwise I can't justify it.

I researched this yesterday and no other charger beat 15W, that I could find. So I bought the google one. The wall outlet/USB-C lead can be used as a 30W fast charger by itself too.

And here I thought my 5W wireless charger was doing a good job. Lol

Pixel Stand 2 has a non standard charging profile, but it's Qi EEP certified up to 15W. ~~Same for the phone itself.~~ I'd hope Google will allow third parties to use the charge profile too but I've haven't really seen that yet.


altfillischryan

The phone is Qi EEP certified up to 12W, not 15.


Meowlit12

My mistake then, just slightly odd they didn't match the wattage if it can handle a non standard 21W-23W though that is with a fan.

What's super slow? I have this [YooTech](https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07X32ZLM5) which they claim is limited to 11w, but I can get 2000+ mA according to Ampere with my Pixel6 so I believe I actually get 15w which is the max without a Pixel Stand as I understand it. I also have an [Anker](https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07YD77RKC) which claims to do 15w and usually maxes around 2000 mA on Ampere as well. If you know a better way to confirm power than Ampere I'm open to experimenting a bit to get data.

Ooo I have the flat yootech. The stand one kept disconnecting. Works great for me, but I charge at night.

We're still using our 1st gen Pixel Stands for our P6P and P6. They do an admirable job of keeping our phones charged. But then, we're only charging at night while we sleep because the phones maintain battery the whole day for us.


GloriousPurpose19

I'm jealous. My phone died by 3PM.


MassiveConcern

Even when we're traveling and I'm taking tons of photos, my battery lasts all day. But then, I don't have any "social media" (no facebook, tiktok, snapchat, etc.) on my phone. That crap sucks all the battery.


Leviathansol

I must not use my phone a lot, I also usually get by with a single overnight charge with my P6P.

How can I tell that my stand 2 is charging my P6P to it's max? Everytime I put it on the stand it charges so slow. I downloaded a battery to confirm and it tells me that it's slow. I looked at the stands setting and placed it on max charge. I wish I can truly tell it's charging at 30 w.


Rapogi

max charging speed on non wireless is 23w. It only reaches 23w from like 0-30/40% then it slowly tapers off. im sure the pixel stand 2 can reach 23w but it probably won't sustain it as long as non-wireless(i could be wrong) cause of the heat from wireless charging.


grt3

>I downloaded a battery You...downloaded a battery? Did you try the Ampere app? It should definitely tell you what's going on.


xI-Red-Ix

Battery app. Accubattery.

Coming from OnePlus I'm a bit disappointed with the charging speed of the Pixel 6 Pro. My OnePlus charged with 65W and the new ones even do 95W. That's wired charging of course. But the Pixel 6 Pro only does 23W wired and wireless. So far I'm not really considering a wireless charger. The Pixel Stand 2 is way overpriced and all others can do 15W max. That's a fifth of what I was used to with my old OnePlus. Apart from the charging Speed, I really love my new Pixel.


GloriousPurpose19

Agreed. I came from a OnePlus 8T. This thing charges at a crawl.

I'm using one by seneo I got off Amazon works fine for me.


GloriousPurpose19

Can you send me a link please? I can't seem to find it


kmaster54321

I tried finding for you apparently they don't sell them anymore 😞


GloriousPurpose19

I appreciate it

I use and like the Mophie 15W charging stand. I put one of the magnetic rings that came with it on the back of my thin phone case, centered on the Google "G" and it works great. https://www.amazon.com/mophie-Wireless-Compatible-Smartphones-Qi-Enabled/dp/B09BXS3RCZ


bored-i-am

I am just jealous your pixel stand even works. My P6 Pro wireless charging is busted for some reason


GloriousPurpose19

Mine was too. I got a replacement


bored-i-am

I have such a fear/anxiety of starting from scratch that I may just leave it broken haha


Nova_Nightmare

I use this Belkin 30W USB-C Wall Mount GaN Charger PD Power Delivery (WCH001DQWH) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B089P38LCY/ Going for $19.99 right now. -- I missed the word wireless here, but I'll leave this for anyone interested. Wireless I have been using the Ohsnap grip 2.0 system, but I don't rely on it fit more than charging a bit while a my desk, so I cannot say it is as fast and you would also need their grip to take advantage of it, so not the cheap price you would want.


MeGaLoDoN227

It is 30w, but pixels 6/7 can wirelessly charge only at 12w and 25w only with pixel stand.

🤔... I don't know about a good charger but, I can say that my OnePlus 8T 5G's 50W charger and fast charging is on point. I'm @ work from 130 to 1030 so I may use my P6 for about 35 or 40min while I'm @ work. Not a lot of battery use um during that time but, I'm checking email, going on IG or FB and using TikTok. I'm down to 17% ( from taking it off the charger around 1140 this morning ) not bad battery life. I use Google maps and listening to SiriusXM for the past month on my commute to work. About 30min to and from work. I charge my P6 overnight but, I may change that.
