Pixel XL Charger As Powerful as Pixel 2 XL? - Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers

I was just wondering if I should pull out the 2 charger from the box or, is it the same as the original?
I have heard tons of conflicting reports.

Look at the specs printed on the bottom of both chargers. I know mine are the same. 5v @ 3.0a and 9v @ 2.0a

Should both be 18W USB-PD. If so, yes

Thanks. I like to keep my boxes as close to stock as possible. It adds a lot of value when selling on Swappa next year.

Charging the Galaxy note 2 - North American Users

I ordered the International Version of the SGN2 and it'll be here on Tuesday but I have an important question to ask. I watched several unboxings on YouTube and I could help but notice all of them came with the UK prongs for the AC adapter.
My question is how are the north american users charging their new Galaxy Note 2's?
Did you guys buy an adapter? Use a different charger? (If so would the nexus 7's charger work?)
Please advise...

You should be OK with almost any USB 5V charger rated at 1A or more, but a 2A charger, like the Nexus 7's, would be the quickest.

I'm glad you started this thread. This has been on my mind all morning. My GN2 should be here Monday. If anyone has a link to a good 2A charger please post.

I ordered from Negrielectronics so I doubt I'll be getting one. What did they give you? 2A?

My GN2 should be here Monday. If they didn't supply an adapter, I'm just going to run over to my local Radio Shack and pick up one of these.

Good find and smart thinking! I think I'll do the same

When you pre order from handtec they throw in a free adapter, and the note charges super fast like 10% to a 100% in 2 and a half hours.

Anyone in Canada (Toronto area in particular) know where to buy one of these?
I know they're on eBay but I can't find it on the source.ca
Any suggestions?

I have American Style adapters with converter prongs, and have been using it on 220v here in Korea. I've used it the other way as well. They all work no problem.

Just a fyi - I ordered through Techno Trading House on eBay. I was just informed that theirs includes a standard US charger.

AFAIK, the charging voltage on the Note II is the same 5V as all other phones, thus any USB charger should work. The only difference is in the current rating. A (tablet) charger rated for up to 2A will charge it faster, while others will be slower. Heck, you could use a 0.5A BT headset charger too! It will just take over 24 hours to fully charge the beast.
The current rating is the amount of current the device can supply safely. Its like a tap, the bigger the spout, the faster the water flow.

Actually my s2 charger (5v 0.7a) charges my note2 from 7% to 100% in 5 hours.
I'm considering keeping that charger for daily use as my note2 only charges during the night anyways while im sleeping and I think its more gentle on the battery to slow charge it. And I'll keep the 2A charger for emergencies.

Searching for dual qi wireless charging pad

First I thought to buy the Google one, but it just to small, and I need 2, for nexus 5 & 7, then I thought, why not to kill 2 rabbits, with 1 bullet, and buy a dual charger, the ZENS looks good, and big, so tablet not look out of place, any other recommendations?

Could you take me a photo of nexus 5 & 7 charging at the same time on it? just curios of correct placement of the 7" tablet on it (dunno how good it looks on it, as other qi pad are small), how much Amps the Ac adapter outputs?

Sure. I'll grab it next time she's over. I don't know the amp the adapter puts out off hand, but both the qi slots charge around the same speed as my vu and the lg puck. I'll check after work.

Any updates?

I'm happy with the Aukey 3 foot cable, but their 6 foot cables won't fast charge my phone. They replaced my first one, and when the replacement didn't work either, they refunded my order. Their customer service is top notch.

Have experimented with this.
Found that OEM stock charger is best.
Also best results with phone not hot to touch or colder than room temp.

To add to this, charge your phone with the screen off. Device is limited to 1000ma/h while screen is on.
Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using XDA Labs
Yes, screen off for Fast Charging...
I believe I read something that this phone has the potential to charge faster but google restricted it
The best charger is MacBook's charger.

Nexus 6P usb cables safe for Pixel 3 XL?

I searched online and noticed that Nexus 6P charger is not safe for anything other than 6P. But I got confused whether I can use the USB-C/USB-C cable and USB-A/USB-C cable comes with Nexus 6P for my Pixel 3 XL? Could anyone tell me or point me to the right webpage? Thanks.
Not sure why not. The phone pulls the amperage, not the cable or wall adapter. I have been using my 6P cable and adapter without issues.

I got this information from multiple reddit threads, for example: Can i safely use the Nexus 6p charger for my new Pixel 2 XL?
Interesting. Well, I have been using my charger on a couple of phones now. Haven't had any issues. But of course YMMV.
